We initiate a new approach to the study of the combinatorics of several parametrizations of canonical bases. In this work we deal with Lie algebras of type $A$. Using geometric objects called Rhombic tilings we derive a "crossing formula"…

The negative part $U^-$ of a quantised enveloping algebra associated to a simple Lie algebra possesses a canonical basis $\mathcal{B}$ with favourable properties. Lusztig has associated a cone to a reduced expression $\mathbf{i}$ for the…

For arbitrary reduced words we give formulas for the crystal structures on string and Lusztig data of type A as well as the defining inequalities of the corresponding polytopes revealing certain dualities between them.

We give a formula for the crystal structure on the integer points of the string polytopes and the $*$-crystal structure on the integer points of the string cones of type $A$ for arbitrary reduced words. As a byproduct we obtain defining…

Crystal basis theory for the queer Lie superalgebra was developed by Grantcharov et al. and it was shown that semistandard decomposition tableaux admit the structure of crystals for the queer Lie superalgebra or simply…

The crystals for finite dimensional representations of sl(n+1) can be realized using Young tableaux. The infinity crystal on the other hand is naturally realized using multisegments, and there is a simple description of the embedding of…

Let $i$ be a reduced expression of the longest element in the Weyl group of type $A$, which is adapted to a Dynkin quiver with a single sink. We present a simple description of the crystal embedding of Young tableaux of arbitrary shape into…

We provide an explicit combinatorial description of the embedding of the crystal of Kashiwara-Nakashima tableaux in types $B$ and $C$ into that of $\bi$-Lusztig data associated to a family of reduced expressions $\bi$ of the longest element…

Kashiwara and Saito have defined a crystal structure on the set of irreducible components of Lusztig's quiver varieties. This gives a geometric realization of the crystal graph of the lower half of the quantum group associated to a…

We study the description of the crystal structure on the set of Mirkovi\'c-Vilonen polytopes. Anderson and Mirkovi\'c defined an operator and conjectured that it coincides with the Kashiwara operator. Kamnitzer proved the conjecture for…

Henriques and Kamnitzer defined and studied a commutor for the category of crystals of a finite dimentional complex reductive Lie algebra. We show that the action of this commutor on highest weight elements can be expressed very simply…

We review Stanley's seminal work on the number of reduced words of the longest element of the symmetric group and his Stanley symmetric functions. We shed new light on this by giving a crystal theoretic interpretation in terms of decreasing…
