Abstract

There are many insertion algorithms (RSK, Edelman-Greene, Haiman's mixed insertion, Kraskiewicz,...) which relate permutations and their reduced words to various types of tableaux. All of these algorithms are closely related to Schützenberger's jeu de taquin. I will give an overview of this intriguing area in combinatorics.
