For every binary sequence , independently fix the pair when and swap its two entries when . The resulting map is a permutation with , and different binary sequences produce different permutations. Therefore is uncountable.
In fact these are all the possibilities: if , bijectivity and the displacement bound force , while a point not in such an adjacent transposition is fixed.
