摘要
We show that there are n! matchings on 2n points without so-called left (neighbor) nestings. We also define a set of naturally labeled (2 + 2)-free posets and show that there are n! such posets on 71 elements. Our work was inspired by Bousquet-Melou, Claesson, Dukes and Kitaev [J. Combin. Theory Ser. A. 117 (2010) 884-909]. They gave bijections between four classes of combinatorial objects: matchings with no neighbor nestings (due to Stoimenow), unlabeled (2 + 2)-free posets, permutations avoiding a specific pattern, and so-called ascent sequences. We believe that certain statistics on our matchings and posets could generalize the work of Bousquet-Melou et al., and we make a conjecture to that effect. We also identify natural subsets of matchings and posets that are equinumerous to the class of unlabeled (2 + 2)-free posets. We give bijections that show the equivalence of (neighbor) restrictions on nesting arcs with (neighbor) restrictions on crossing arcs. These bijections are thought to be of independent interest. One of the bijections factors through certain upper-triangular integer matrices that have recently been studied by Dukes and Parviainen [Electron. J. Combin. 17 (2010) #R53].
