Abstract

For a simply connected connected simple algebraic group GG, a cell Bw0=BUw0UB_{w_0}^-=B^-\cap U\overline{w_0}U is a geometric crystal with a positive structure θi:(C×)l(w0)Bw0\theta_{\textbf{i}}^-:(\mathbb{C}^{\times})^{l(w_0)}\rightarrow B_{w_0}^-. Applying the tropicalization functor to a rational function ΦBKh=iIΔw0Λi,siΛi\Phi^h_{BK}=\sum_{i\in I}\Delta_{w_0\Lambda_i,s_i\Lambda_i} called the half decoration on Bw0B_{w_0}^-, one can realize the crystal B()B(\infty) in Zl(w0)\mathbb{Z}^{l(w_0)}. By computing ΦBKh\Phi^h_{BK}, we get an explicit form of B()B(\infty) in Zl(w0)\mathbb{Z}^{l(w_0)}. In this paper, we give an algorithm to compute Δw0Λi,siΛiθi\Delta_{w_0\Lambda_i,s_i\Lambda_i}\circ \theta_{\textbf{i}}^- explicitly for iIi\in I such that V(Λi)V(\Lambda_i) is a minuscule representation of g=Lie(G)\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G). In particular, the algorithm works for all iIi\in I if g\mathfrak{g} is of type An{\rm A}_n. The algorithm computes a directed graph DGDG, called a decoration graph, whose vertices are labelled by all monomials in Δw0Λi,siΛiθi(t1,,tl(w0))\Delta_{w_0\Lambda_i,s_i\Lambda_i}\circ \theta_{\textbf{i}}^-(t_1,\cdots,t_{l(w_0)}). The decoration graph has some properties similar to crystal graphs of minuscule representations. We also verify that the algorithm works in some other cases, for example, the case g\mathfrak{g} is of type G2{\rm G}_2 though V(Λi)V(\Lambda_i) is non-minuscule.
