If you look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pat you can see, that the Ubuntu repositories provide the pat package only for Ubuntu 22.04 and newer.

I doubt, that a manual installation of the pat package for Ubuntu jammy will be possible on a focal system, because of the dependency on libc6 (>= 2.34), that cannot be met on focal.

Recommendation: Upgrade your system to jammy

Remark: Your output shows a configuration weakness in the package management system. You should add an [arch=amd64] clause to the sources.list entries related to mono-project
