Crystal structure on rigged configurations and the filling map

In this paper, we extend work of the first author on a crystal structure on rigged configurations of simply-laced type to all non-exceptional affine types using the technology of virtual rigged configurations and crystals. Under the bijection between rigged configurations and tensor products of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals specialized to a single tensor factor, we obtain a new tableaux model for Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals. This is related to the model in terms of Kashiwara-Nakashima tableaux via a filling map, generalizing the recently discovered filling map in type $D_n^{(1)}$.Comment: 45 page

On higher level Kirillov--Reshetikhin crystals, Demazure crystals, and related uniform models

We show that a tensor product of nonexceptional type Kirillov--Reshetikhin (KR) crystals is isomorphic to a direct sum of Demazure crystals; we do this in the mixed level case and without the perfectness assumption, thus generalizing a result of Naoi. We use this result to show that, given two tensor products of such KR crystals with the same maximal weight, after removing certain $0$-arrows, the two connected components containing the minimal/maximal elements are isomorphic. Based on the latter fact, we reduce a tensor product of higher level perfect KR crystals to one of single-column KR crystals, which allows us to use the uniform models available in the literature in the latter case. We also use our results to give a combinatorial interpretation of the Q-system relations. Our results are conjectured to extend to the exceptional types.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure; v2, incorporated changes from refere

Alcove path model for B(∞)B(\infty)

We construct a model for $B(\infty)$ using the alcove path model of Lenart and Postnikov. We show that the continuous limit of our model recovers a dual version of the Littelmann path model for $B(\infty)$ given by Li and Zhang. Furthermore, we consider the dual version of the alcove path model and obtain analogous results for the dual model, where the continuous limit gives the Li and Zhang model.Comment: 19 pages, 7 figures; improvements from comments, added more figure

Connecting marginally large tableaux and rigged configurations via crystals

We show that the bijection from rigged configurations to tensor products of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals extends to a crystal isomorphism between the $B(\infty)$ models given by rigged configurations and marginally large tableaux.Comment: 22 pages, 3 figure

Rigged configurations of type D4(3)D_4^{(3)} and the filling map

International audienceWe give a statistic preserving bijection from rigged configurations to a tensor product of Kirillov–Reshetikhin crystals $\otimes_{i=1}^{N}B^{1,s_i}$ in type $D_4^{(3)}$ by using virtualization into type $D_4^{(1)}$. We consider a special case of this bijection with $B=B^{1,s}$, and we obtain the so-called Kirillov–Reshetikhin tableaux model for the Kirillov–Reshetikhin crystal.Nous donnons une bijection prservant les statistiques entre les configurations gréées et les produits tensoriels de cristaux de Kirillov–Reshetikhin $\otimes_{i=1}^{N}B^{1,s_i}$ de type $D_4^{(3)}$, via une virtualisation en type $D_4^{(1)}$. Nous considérons un cas particulier de cette bijection pour $B=B^{1,s}$ et obtenons ainsi les modèles de tableaux appelés Kirillov–Reshetikhin pour le cristal Kirillov–Reshetikhin

A rigged configuration model for B(∞)B(\infty)

We describe a combinatorial realization of the crystals $B(\infty)$ and $B(\lambda)$ using rigged configurations in all symmetrizable Kac-Moody types up to certain conditions. This includes all simply-laced types and all non-simply-laced finite and affine types

Rigged configuration bijection and proof of the X=MX=M conjecture for nonexceptional affine types

We establish a bijection between rigged configurations and highest weight elements of a tensor product of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals for all nonexceptional types. A key idea for the proof is to embed both objects into bigger sets for simply-laced types $A_n^{(1)}$ or $D_n^{(1)}$, whose bijections have already been established. As a consequence we settle the $X=M$ conjecture in full generality for nonexceptional types. Furthermore, the bijection extends to a classical crystal isomorphism and sends the combinatorial $R$-matrix to the identity map on rigged configurations.Comment: 30 pages, 2 figures; v2 Referenced Naoi's work in the introduction, clarified some notation; v3 Various additions for more self-containment (e.g., the signature rule) and typos fixe

Rigged configurations and the ∗\ast-involution for generalized Kac--Moody algebras

We construct a uniform model for highest weight crystals and $B(\infty)$ for generalized Kac--Moody algebras using rigged configurations. We also show an explicit description of the $\ast$-involution on rigged configurations for $B(\infty)$: that the $\ast$-involution interchanges the rigging and the corigging. We do this by giving a recognition theorem for $B(\infty)$ using the $\ast$-involution. As a consequence, we also characterize $B(\lambda)$ as a subcrystal of $B(\infty)$ using the $\ast$-involution. We show that the category of highest weight crystals for generalized Kac--Moody algebras is a coboundary category by extending the definition of the crystal commutor using the $\ast$-involution due to Kamnitzer and Tingley.Comment: 23 pages, 1 figur
