In [Frieden, arXiv:1706.02844], we constructed a geometric crystal on the variety $\mathbb{X}_{k} := {\rm Gr}(k,n) \times \mathbb{C}^\times$ which tropicalizes to the affine crystal structure on rectangular tableaux with $n-k$ rows. In this…
In this paper we introduce geometric crystals and unipotent crystals which are algebro-geometric analogues of Kashiwara's crystal bases. Given a reductive group G, let I be the set of vertices of the Dynkin diagram of G and T be the maximal…

We construct a type $A_{n-1}^{(1)}$ geometric crystal on the variety ${\rm Gr}(k,n) \times \mathbb{C}^\times$, and show that it tropicalizes to the disjoint union of the Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals corresponding to rectangular tableaux…
Berenstein and Kazhdan's theory of geometric crystals gives rise to two commuting families of geometric crystal operators acting on the space of complex $m \times n$ matrices. These are birational actions, which we view as a…
The birational $R$-matrix is a transformation that appears in the theory of geometric crystals, the study of total positivity in loop groups, and discrete dynamical systems. This $R$-matrix gives rise to an action of the symmetric group…
There are two parts to this work, which are largely independent. The first consists of a series of results concerning the crystal commutor of Henriques and Kamnitzer. We first describe the relationship between the crystal commutor and…

The geometric crystal operators and geometric $R$-matrices (or geometric Weyl group actions) give commuting actions on the field of rational functions in $mn$ variables. We study the invariants of various combinations of these actions,…
Generally speaking, this thesis focuses on the interplay between the representations of Lie groups and probability theory. It subdivides into essentially three parts. In a first rather algebraic part, we construct a path model for geometric…
We define geometric/unipotent crystal structure on unipotent subgroups of semi-simple algebraic groups. We shall show that in $A_n$-case, their ultra-discretizations coincide with crystals obtained by generalizing Young tableaux.
Consider Kashiwara's crystal associated to a highest weight representation of a symmetric Kac-Moody algebra. There is a geometric realization of this object using Nakajima's quiver varieties, but in many particular cases it can also be…
