Abstract:
A permutation is an ( r , s )- permutation if it can be partitioned into r increasing and s decreasing, possibly empty subsequences. For any fixed non-negative integers r and s , the family of ( r , s )-permutations is characterized by a finite list of forbidden subsequences. This is derived from a more general graph-theoretic proof showing that, for any fixed non-negative integers r and s , the family of perfect graphs whose vertex set admits a partition into r cliques and s independent sets if characterized by a finite list of forbidden induced subgraphs.
