Parents of Vincular-Avoiding Permutations
Abstract
Restricting a 2-41-3-avoiding permutation to its smallest letters preserves avoidance.

Commentary.
For every permutation of one through n avoiding 2-41-3 and every nonnegative m at most n, retaining only the entries at most m gives a permutation of one through m avoiding 2-41-3.
