In this paper, we establish that FFLV polytopes, which describe monomial bases compatible with the PBW filtration on finite-dimensional simple modules for $\lie{sl}_n$ and $\lie{sp}_n$, are actually string polytopes as described by…
We consider "odd symplectic Lie algebras" defined in terms of maximal rank skew-symmetric forms. We provide FFLV polytopes for these algebras and prove their standard properties. In particular, we obtain a new graded character formula and…
We present a combinatorial monomial basis (or, more precisely, a family of monomial bases) in every finite-dimensional irreducible $\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1}$-module. These bases are in many ways similar to the FFLV bases for types $A$ and $C$.…
We study the closure of the graph of the birational map from a projective space to a Grassmannian. We provide explicit description of the graph closure and compute the fibers of the natural projection to the Grassmannian. We construct…
In the representation theory of simple Lie algebras, we consider the problem of constructing a monomial basis in an arbitrary irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight module. We construct a PBW-type basis in every finite-dimensional…
Recently we have started a program to describe the action of Lie algebras associated with Dynkin-type diagrams on generic Verma modules in terms of polynomial vector fields. In this paper we explain that the results for the classical ABCD…
In this paper we prove that in type $\tt A_n$, the Feigin-Fourier-Littelmann-Vinberg (FFLV) polytope coincides with the Minkowski sum of Lusztig polytopes arising from various reduced decompositions. Using this result, we formulate a…
We give an explicit description of the Mirkovic-Vilonen cycles on the affine Grassmannian for arbitrary complex reductive groups. We also give a combinatorial characterization of the MV polytopes. We prove that a polytope is an MV polytope…
For Grassmann varieties, we explain how the duality between the Gelfand-Tsetlin polytopes and the Feigin-Fourier-Littelmann-Vinberg polytopes arises from different positive structures.
We review several linear algebraic aspects of the Dehn-Sommerville relations and relate redundant analogues of the f- and h-vectors describing the subsets of a simplex 2^{1,...,m} that satisfy Dehn-Sommerville type relations to integer…
Given a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, a hollow polytope has vertices in $S$ but contains no other point of $S$ in its interior. We prove upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of hollow polytopes whose facets are…
The polytope of integer partitions of $n$ is the convex hull of the corresponding $n$-dimensional integer points. Its vertices are of importance because every partition is their convex combination. Computation shows intriguing features of…
We introduce fractional realizations of a graph degree sequence and a closely associated convex polytope. Simple graph realizations correspond to a subset of the vertices of this polytope. We describe properties of the polytope vertices and…
We give some closed formulas for certain vectors of the canonical bases of the Fock space representation of U_v(sl^_n). As a result, a combinatorial description of certain parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for affine type A is obtained.
We describe how Mirkovic-Vilonen polytopes arise naturally from the categorification of Lie algebras using Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras. This gives an explicit description of the unique crystal isomorphism between simple representations…
The symplectic group branching algebra, B, is a graded algebra whose components encode the multiplicities of irreducible representations of Sp(2n-2,C) in each irreducible representation of Sp(2n,C). By describing on B an ASL structure, we…
Following a question of Vinberg, a general method to construct monomial bases for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of a reductive Lie algebra was developed in a series of papers by Feigin, Fourier, and Littelmann. Relying on…
The paper is motivated by the study of graded representations of Takiff algebras, cominuscule parabolics, and their generalizations. We study certain special subsets of the set of weights (and of their convex hull) of the generalized Verma…
We introduce the tropical $F$-polynomial $f_M$ of a quiver representation $M$. We study its interplay with the general presentation for any finite-dimensional basic algebra. We give an interpretation of evaluating $f_M$ at a weight vector.…
The volume and the number of lattice points of the permutohedron P_n are given by certain multivariate polynomials that have remarkable combinatorial properties. We give several different formulas for these polynomials. We also study a more…
