Wilf-classification of mesh patterns of short length (Q888626): Difference between revisions

Summary: This paper starts the Wilf-classification of mesh patterns of length 2. Although there are initially 1024 patterns to consider we introduce automatic methods to reduce the number of potentially different Wilf-classes to at most 65. By enumerating some of the remaining classes we bring that upper-bound further down to 56. Finally, we conjecture that the actual number of Wilf-classes of mesh patterns of length 2 is 46.
