Abstract: It is well-known that the set $mathbf{I}_n$ of involutions of the symmetric group $mathbf{S}_n$ corresponds bijectively - by the Foata map $F$ - to the set of $n$-permutations that avoid the two vincular patterns $underline123,$ $underline132.$ We consider a bijection $Gamma$ from the set $mathbf{S}_n$ to the set of histoires de Laguerre, namely, bicolored Motzkin paths with labelled steps, and study its properties when restricted to $mathbf{S}_n(1underline23,1underline32).$ In particular, we show that the set $mathbf{S}_n(underline123,132)$ of permutations that avoids the consecutive pattern $underline123$ and the classical pattern $132$ corresponds via $Gamma$ to the set of Motzkin paths, while its image under $F$ is the set of restricted involutions $mathbf{I}_n(3412).$ We exploit these results to determine the joint distribution of the statistics des and inv over $mathbf{S}_n(underline123,132)$ and over $mathbf{I}_n(3412).$ Moreover, we determine the distribution in these two sets of every consecutive pattern of length three. To this aim, we use a modified version of the well-known Goulden-Jacson cluster method.
