Abstract

We present an efficient implementation of the solution to the conjugacy problem in Thompson's group F. This algorithm checks for conjugacy by constructing and comparing directed graphs called strand diagrams. We provide a description of our solution algorithm, including the data structure that represents strand diagrams and supports simplifications.
