Dear all,
Please find below the details of Friday's talk.
Speaker: Siddhartha Jain
Abstract: I will be introducing the field of Pattern Matching in an accessible way. When we talk about permutations on [n], we can write them as words using numbers. For example, we write π = 231 to mean that π (1) = 2, π(2) = 3 and π(3) = 1. Now permutations induced within any permutation also correspond to some words, but they need not be a representation of a permutation on [n]. Fortunately, we can "reduce" them to get exactly this. In Pattern Avoidance / Matching we try to detect these reduced "patterns" occurring in permutations.
Besides covering algorithmic results and hardness, I will motivate research on bounds for classes of pattern avoiding permutations.
