The number of permutations avoiding 231 and 312 in the classical sense which can be realized as labels on an increasing strict binary tree with 2n-1 nodes. A strict binary tree is a tree graph where each node has 0 or 2 children. The permutation is found by reading the labels in the order they appear in a breadth-first search. (Note that breadth-first search reading word is equivalent to reading the tree left to right by levels, starting with the root.)
In some cases, more than one tree results in the same breadth-first search reading word, but here we count the permutations, not the trees.
EXAMPLE
For example, when n=3, the permutations 12543, 12435, 13245, 13254, 12345,and 12354. all avoid 231 and 312 in the classical sense and occur as breadth-first search reading words on an increasing strict binary tree with 5 nodes.
