Abstract: We study the feasible region for consecutive patterns of pattern-avoiding permutations. More precisely, given a family mathcalC of permutations avoiding a fixed set of patterns, we consider the limit of proportions of consecutive patterns on large permutations of mathcalC. These limits form a region, which we call the consecutive patterns feasible region for mathcalC. We determine the dimension of the consecutive patterns feasible region for all families mathcalC closed either for the direct sum or the skew sum. These families include for instance the ones avoiding a single pattern and all substitution-closed classes. We further show that these regions are always convex and we conjecture that they are always polytopes. We prove this conjecture when mathcalC is the family of au-avoiding permutations, with either au of size three or au a monotone pattern. Furthermore, in these cases we give a full description of the vertices of these polytopes via cycle polytopes. Along the way, we discuss connections of this work with the problem of packing patterns in pattern-avoiding permutations and to the study of local limits for pattern-avoiding permutations.
