Student Combinatorics Seminar

Date:  Monday, April 02, 2012
Location:  3088 East Hall (4:00 PM to 5:00 PM)

Title:  The RSK Algorithm

Abstract:   The Robinson-Schensted-Knuth (RSK) algorithm establishes a bisection between permutations in Sn and pairs of Standard Young Tableaux of size n of the same shape. In this talk, we will discuss the algorithm and some of its geometric realizations, including growth and shadow diagrams.
