[hal-01184378] Permutations with short monotone subsequences

We consider permutations of 1,2,...,n^2 whose longest monotone subsequence is of length n and are therefore extremal for the Erdős-Szekeres Theorem. Such permutations correspond via the Robinson-Schensted correspondence to pairs of square n× n Young tableaux. We show that all the bumping sequences are constant and therefore these permutations have a simple description in terms of the pair of square tableaux. We deduce a limit shape result for the plot of values of the typical such permutation, which in particular implies that the first value taken by such a permutation is with high probability (1+o(1))n^2/2.
