Description
The number of monotone factorisations of genus zero of a permutation of given cycle type.
A monotone factorisation of genus zero of a permutation $\pi\in\mathfrak S_n$ with $\ell$ cycles, including fixed points, is a tuple of $r = n - \ell$ transpositions
$$ (a_1, b_1),\dots,(a_r, b_r) $$
with $b_1 \leq \dots \leq b_r$ and $a_i < b_i$ for all $i$, whose product, in this order, is $\pi$.
For example, the cycle $(2,3,1)$ has the two factorizations $(2,3)(1,3)$ and $(1,2)(2,3)$.
