Asymptotic distribution of fixed points of pattern-avoiding involutions
For a variety of pattern-avoiding classes, we describe the limiting
distribution for the number of fixed points for involutions chosen uniformly at
random from that class. In particular we consider monotone patterns of
arbitrary length as well as all patterns of length 3. For monotone patterns we
utilize the connection with standard Young tableaux with at most rows and
involutions avoiding a monotone pattern of length . For every pattern of
length 3 we give the bivariate generating function with respect to fixed points
for the involutions that avoid that pattern, and where applicable apply tools
from analytic combinatorics to extract information about the limiting
distribution from the generating function. Many well-known distributions
appear.Comment: 16 page

The Brownian limit of separable permutations
We study random uniform permutations in an important class of
pattern-avoiding permutations: the separable permutations. We describe the
asymptotics of the number of occurrences of any fixed given pattern in such a
random permutation in terms of the Brownian excursion. In the recent
terminology of permutons, our work can be interpreted as the convergence of
uniform random separable permutations towards a "Brownian separable permuton".Comment: 45 pages, 14 figures, incorporating referee's suggestion
