COMMENT

This is well-defined because for all patterns alpha in S_3 the number of permutations in S_n avoiding alpha is the same (the Catalan numbers). - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), May 05 2008

EXAMPLE

a(4)=10 because, taking, for example, the pattern alpha=321, we have 3214, 3241, 1432, 2431, 3421, 4213, 4132, 4231, 4312 and 4321.
