Equidistributions of Mahonian statistics over pattern avoiding permutations (Q1691101)

Summary: A Mahonian \(d\)-function is a Mahonian statistic that can be expressed as a linear combination of vincular pattern statistics of length at most \(d\). Babson and Steingrímsson classified all Mahonian 3-functions up to trivial bijections and identified many of them with well-known Mahonian statistics in the literature. We prove a host of Mahonian 3-function equidistributions over permutations in \(\mathcal S_n\) avoiding a single classical pattern in \(\mathcal S_3\). Tools used include block decomposition, Dyck paths and generating functions.
