Abstract

For integers e,2e,\ell\geq 2, the level \ell Fock space has an sl\mathfrak{sl}_\infty-crystal structure arising from the action of a Heisenberg algebra, intertwining the sle^\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}_e}-crystal. The vertices of these crystals are charged \ell-partitions. We give the combinatorial rule for computing the arrows anywhere in the sl\mathfrak{sl}_\infty-crystal. This allows us to pinpoint the location of any charged \ell-partition. As an application, we compute the support of the spherical representation of a cyclotomic rational Cherednik algebra, and in particular, the set of parameters such that it is finite-dimensional. We also give an easy abacus characterization of all finite-dimensional representations of type BB Cherednik algebras.
