FFLV polytopes describe monomial bases in irreducible representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ and $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}$. We study various sets of vertices of FFLV polytopes. First, we consider the special linear case. We prove the locality of…
We characterise the symplectic Weyl group elements such that the FFLV basis is compatible with the PBW filtration on symplectic Demazure modules, extending type A results by the second author. Surprisingly, the number of such elements…
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 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 study the PBW filtration on irreducible finite--dimensional representations for the Lie algebra of type $\tt B_n$. We prove in several cases, including all multiples of the adjoint representation and all irreducible finite--dimensional…
A string polytope is a rational convex polytope whose lattice points parametrize a highest weight crystal basis, which is obtained from a string cone by explicit affine inequalities depending on a highest weight. It also inherits geometric…
For a reduced word ${\bf i}$ of the longest element in the Weyl group of $\mathrm{SL}_{n+1}(\mathbb{C})$, one can associate the string cone $C_{\bf i}$ which parametrizes the dual canonical bases. In this paper, we classify all ${\bf i}$'s…
We study the PBW filtration on the irreducible highest weight representations of simple complex finite-dimensional Lie algebras. This filtration is induced by the standard degree filtration on the universal enveloping algebra. For certain…
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…
We study certain faces of the normal polytope introduced by Feigin, Littelmann and the author whose lattice points parametrize a monomial basis of the PBW-degenerated of simple modules for $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$. We show that lattice points…
A Newton-Okounkov convex body is a convex body constructed from a projective variety with a valuation on its homogeneous coordinate ring; this generalizes a Newton polytope for a toric variety. This convex body has various kinds of…
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 study the PBW filtration on the Demazure modules $V_{r_{\gamma}}(\lambda)$ associated to reflections $r_{\gamma}$ at positive roots in type $A_n$, long roots in type $C_n$, short roots in type $B_n$ and positive roots not involving the…
We introduce the notion of a favourable module for a complex unipotent algebraic group, whose properties are governed by the combinatorics of an associated polytope. We describe two filtrations of the module, one given by the total degree…
We show how affine PBW bases can be used to construct affine MV polytopes, and that the resulting objects agree with the affine MV polytopes recently constructed using either preprojective algebras or KLR algebras. To do this we first…
In this paper we construct bases of standard (i.e. integrable highest weight) modules $L(\Lambda)$ for affine Lie algebra of type $B_2\sp{(1)}$ consisting of semi-infinite monomials. The main technical ingredient is a construction of…
In this short note we announce three formulas for the set of weights of various classes of highest weight modules $\V$ with highest weight \lambda, over a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\lie{g}$ with Cartan subalgebra $\lie{h}$. These…
We provide $\mathbb{N}$-filtrations on the negative part $U_q(\mathfrak{n}^-)$ of the quantum group associated to a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, such that the associated graded algebra is a skew-polynomial algebra…
The Gelfand-Tsetlin and the Feigin-Fourier-Littelmann-Vinberg polytopes for the Grassmannians are defined, from the perspective of representation theory, to parametrize certain bases for highest weight irreducible modules. These polytopes…
Mirkovic-Vilonen (MV) polytopes have proven to be a useful tool in understanding and unifying many constructions of crystals for finite-type Kac-Moody algebras. These polytopes arise naturally in many places, including the affine…
