Source abstract

We give explicit algorithms that factor elements of the standard diagram monoids into their usual generators. These algorithms generalize sorting from permutations to partial matchings and set partitions. In every case the worst-case complexity is n2n^2, which is optimal for algorithms that explicitly list the factors. We also determine the average complexity of our algorithms.
