First choose the type of tableau using the radio buttons.

Next, obtain a tableau via the Domino Robinson-Schensted algorithm, either randomly or by entering a parameter.  To obtain a randomly-generated tableau, simply enter the size in the textbox labelled "n".  Then, click the Run button to the right of that box, or press Enter. 

Instead, you can enter a signed permutation (for example, 2 -5 3 6 -4 1) in the second textbox.  To do that, list the numbers of the signed permutation, separated by spaces.  Then, click the Run button to the right of that box, or press Enter. 

The purpose of this page is to demonstrate moving a pair of tableaux with grid through an extended open cycle.  Each open cycle has a back square, marked in green, and a forward square, marked in purple.  If you click on one of those squares, in either of the tableaux, the page will make a copy of your tableaux, and animate moving through the indicated extended cycle on the copy.

You can then repeat this by clicking on another green or purple square of the original tableaux pair.  Clicking the "Clear Animations" button will remove the copies while leaving the original tableau.

You can alter the speed of the animation using the dropdown menu.

Pressing a button a second time, or a different button, will clear the previous result as it gives you a new result, as will pressing Enter while in a textbox.
