Abstract

We give an explicit formula for the number of permutations that cyclically avoid a consecutive pattern in terms of the spectrum of the associated operator of the consecutive pattern. As an example, the number of cyclically consecutive 123-avoiding permutations in οn is given by n! times the convergent series Σk=-∞ (3/2φ(k+1/3)n for n ≤ 2.
