An analogue of the plactic monoid for binary search trees. (Un analogue du monoïde plaxique pour les arbres binaires de recherche.) (French) Zbl 1013.05026

Summary: We introduce a monoid structure on a certain set of labelled binary trees, by a process similar to the construction of the plactic monoid. This leads to a new interpretation of the algebra of planar binary trees of J.-L. Loday and M. O. Ronco [Adv. Math. 139, 293-309 (1998; Zbl 0926.16032) and J. Algebr. Comb. 15, 253-270 (2002; Zbl 0998.05013)].
