Abstract
We study diffeomorphisms of compact, oriented surfaces, developing methods of distinguishing those which have positive factorizations into Dehn twists from those which satisfy the weaker condition of being right-veering. We use these to construct open book decompositions of Stein-fillable 33–manifolds whose monodromies have no positive factorization.
