Nomenclature for descending and ascending sets defined by a permutation












0














I have a question mostly about nomenclature.



Let $pi: mathbb{N} to mathbb{N}$ be a permutation of the natural numbers. For $x in mathbb{N}$, I have studied the sets



$ S_x = left{ x' in mathbb{N}| x' < x + frac{1}{2} , pi(x') > x + frac{1}{2} right} , \
T_x = left{ x' in mathbb{N} | x' > x + frac{1}{2} , pi(x') < x + frac{1}{2} right}$



where the permution ascends above $x$ in for the elements in $S_x$, and descends below $x$ for the elements in $T_x$.



My questions are:



1) Do the sets $S_x, T_x$ have a name in math literature? Are there any books or articles with results about them? (Obviously, $# S_x = # T_x$, but anything more interesting?)



2) I need a symbol for $pi( S_x)$ and $pi(T_x)$, what should I use? I lean towards $S_x^* := pi( T_x )$ and $T_x^* := pi( S_x )$.
