On a question about pattern avoidance of cyclic permutations
Published 6 Mar 2026 in math.CO | (2603.06269v1)
Abstract: Recently, Archer et al.\ studied cyclic permutations that avoid the decreasing pattern $δ_k=k(k-1)\cdots21$ in one-line notation and avoid another pattern $τ$ of length $4$ in all their cycle forms. There are three cases in total to consider, namely, $τ=1324, 1342$ and $1432$. They determined two of them, leaving the case $τ=1432$ as an open question. In this paper, we resolve this case by deriving explicit formulas based on an analysis of the structure of cycle forms and an application of Dilworth's theorem.
