Type B plactic relations for r-domino tableaux
Müge Taşkın
Abstract
The recent work of Bonnafé et al. (2007) shows through two conjectures that r-domino tableaux have an important role in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory of type B with unequal parameters. In this paper we provide plactic relations on signed permutations which determine whether given two signed permutations have the same insertion r-domino tableaux in Garfinkle's algorithm (1990). Moreover, we show that a particular extension of these relations can describe Garfinkle's equivalence relation on r-domino tableaux which is given through the notion of open cycles. With these results we enunciate the conjectures of Bonnafé et al. and provide necessary tool for their proofs.
