Avoidance from Permitted Gaps

Abstract

The increasing-block order and permitted Dyck gaps imply avoidance of 1132 and 2213.

Theorem 1.1 (Sufficiency of the gap condition).

Commentary.

Let a doubled nonnesting word have Dyck shape d and the same distinct-letter order p at its upsteps and downsteps. Suppose p avoids 132 and 213. Whenever consecutive downsteps in d correspond to an ascent of p, require either that they are adjacent or that they enclose a single upstep with the preceding prefix having one more upstep than downstep. Then the word avoids 1132 and 2213.
