Jan 24, 2014 at 2:27 comment added Sam Hopkins Yes the maximum value of $\mathrm{al}(M)$ is $\binom{n}{2}$, attained uniquely. Fortunately we can pair this matching with two matchings with no alignments: the natural choice appears to be the matching where all pairs cross and the matching where all pairs nest.
Jan 24, 2014 at 2:13 comment added Harry Altman Unfortunately the perfect matching is on $\{1,\ldots,2n\}$, rather than $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, so the maximum value of $\mathrm{al}(M)$ is $\binom{n}{2}$.
