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…
For each $n\geqslant3$, we construct an uncountable family of models of the crystal of the basic $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_n)$-module. These models are all based on partitions, and include the usual $n$-regular and $n$-restricted models, as…
We present a simple combinatorial model for the characters of the irreducible integrable highest weight modules for complex symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. This model can be viewed as a discrete counterpart to the Littelmann path model.…
Regular $A_n$-, $B_n$- and $C_n$-crystals are edge-colored directed graphs, with ordered colors $1,2,...,n$, which are related to representations of quantized algebras $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1})$, $U_q(\mathfrak{sp}_{2n})$ and…
We biject two combinatorial models for tensor products of (single-column) Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals of any classical type $A-D$: the quantum alcove model and the tableau model. This allows us to translate calculations in the former…
Using combinatorics of Young walls, we give a new realization of arbitrary level irreducible highest weight crystals $\mathcal{B}(\lambda)$ for quantum affine algebras of type $A_n^{(1)}$, $B_n^{(1)}$, $C_n^{(1)}$, $A_{2n-1}^{(2)}$,…
The diagonalisation of the transfer matrices of solvable vertex models with alternating spins is given. The crystal structure of (semi-)infinite tensor products of finite-dimensional $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$ crystals with alternating dimensions is…
We consider the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$ and the Kostant-Kumar submodules of tensor products of its level 1 highest weight integrable representations. We construct crystals for these submodules in terms of the charged…
The following thesis contains results on the combinatorial representation theory of the finite Hecke algebra $H_n(q)$. In Chapter 2 simple combinatorial descriptions are given which determine when a Specht module corresponding to a…
Given a partition $\lambda$ corresponding to a dominant integral weight of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$, we define the structure of crystal on the set of 5-vertex ice models satisfying certain boundary conditions associated to $\lambda$. We then show…
We give an alternative proof of Naito--Sagaki's conjecture, which states that the restriction of $gl_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$-representations to $sp_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ can be described in terms of crystals. Using the tableau model for crystals, we…
We review and motivate recently-observed relationships between exactly solvable lattice models and modular representations of Hecke algebras. Firstly, we describe how the set of $n$-regular partitions label both of the following classes of…
We construct a subcrystal of the Littelmann's path crystal whose formal character coincides with that of a certain simple integrable module of level zero over the untwisted affine Lie algebra associated to sl_n. We also establish an…
In this paper, we give an explicit combinatorial realization of the crystal B(\lambda) for an irreducible highest weight U_q(q(n))-module V(\lambda) in terms of semistandard decomposition tableaux. We present an insertion scheme for…
We present a complete computational classification of the combinatorial types of hyperplane sections, or slices, of the regular cube up to dimension six. For each dimension, we determine the exact number of distinct combinatorial types.…
We present a combinatorial model, called \emph{perforated tableaux}, to study $A_{n-1}$ crystals, unifying several previously studied combinatorial models. We identify nodes in the $k$-fold tensor product of the standard crystal with length…
A hyperbolic BC(n) Sutherland model involving three independent coupling constants that characterize the interactions of two types of particles moving on the half-line is derived by Hamiltonian reduction of the free geodesic motion on the…
This paper provides a combinatorial dictionary between three sets of objects: Bernstein-Zelevinsky multisegments, Kleshchev multipartitions, and the irreducible modules of the affine Hecke algebra $H_n$ (for generic $q$). In particular, we…
We provide a new tableau model from which one can easily deduce the characters of finite-dimensional irreducible polynomial representations of the special orthogonal group $SO_n(\mathbb{C})$. This model originates from the representation…
Symmetries impose structure on the Hilbert space of a quantum mechanical model. The mathematical units of this structure are the irreducible representations of symmetry groups and I consider how they function as conceptual units of…
