Part 3. The Littlewood-Richardson Rule, and Related Combinatorics

An introduction is given to the Littlewood-Richardson rule, and various combinatorial constructions related to it.We present a proof based on tableau switching, dual equivalence, and coplactic operations.We conclude with a section relating these fairly modern techniques to earlier work on the Littlewood-Richardson rule.
