Growth rates of permutation classes: categorization up to the uncountability threshold

Abstract: In the antecedent paper to this it was established that there is an algebraic number xiapprox2.30522 such that while there are uncountably many growth rates of permutation classes arbitrarily close to xi, there are only countably many less than xi. Here we provide a complete characterization of the growth rates less than xi. In particular, this classification establishes that xi is the least accumulation point from above of growth rates and that all growth rates less than or equal to xi are achieved by finitely based classes. A significant part of this classification is achieved via a reconstruction result for sum indecomposable permutations. We conclude by refuting a suggestion of Klazar, showing that xi is an accumulation point from above of growth rates of finitely based permutation classes.
