A permutominide is a set of cells in the plane satisfying special connectivity constraints and uniquely defined by a pair of permutations. It naturally generalizes the concept of permutomino, recently investigated by several authors and from different points of view. In this paper, using bijective methods, we determine the enumeration of various classes of convex permutominides, including, parallelogram, directed convex, convex, and row convex permutominides. As a corollary we have a bijective proof for the number of convex permutominoes, which was still an open problem.

Abstract
A permutominide is a set of cells in the plane satisfying special connectivity constraints and uniquely defined by a pair of permutations. It naturally generalizes the concept of permutomino, recently investigated by several authors and from different points of view. In this paper, using bijective methods, we determine the enumeration of various classes of convex permutominides, including, parallelogram, directed convex, convex, and row convex permutominides. As a corollary we have a bijective proof for the number of convex permutominoes, which was still an open problem.File in questo prodotto:
