Jun 8, 2015 at 7:41 comment added Vladimir Dotsenko @DuchampGérardH.E. Yes, I don't think much understood about structure constants. I feel however that the OP was asking a question about a sort of triangularity property with some structure constants, which is indeed very easy.
Jun 8, 2015 at 7:22 comment added Duchamp Gérard H. E. This, of course, does not withdraw any parcel of the merit of Sirsov who was the first to point out these words (rediscovered as explained in Bokut's paper independently by Fox and Lyndon).
Jun 8, 2015 at 7:11 comment added Duchamp Gérard H. E. See, for instance <a href="sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0012365X99001247" target="_blank">sciencedirect.com/s<wbr>cience/article/pii/…>. It seems that the question of structure constants is still widely open.
Jun 8, 2015 at 7:02 comment added Duchamp Gérard H. E. Yes, equivalent up to a reversal (just to clarify in order that readers be not misled). In the statement, a Lyndon word is the (strict) minimum of a (primitive) conjugacy class as in Reutenauer's book Free Lie algebras (which I believe has become standard convention now) whereas in the paper you cite (Lemma 3.5), a Lyndon-Sirsov word is the (strict) maximum of a (primitive) conjugacy class as was used in the former "école de Lille" around Gérard Jacob.
