Simple Algorithm for Factorized Dynamics of g_n-Automaton

We present an elementary algorithm for the dynamics of recently introduced soliton cellular automata associated with quantum affine algebra U_q(g_n) at q=0. For g_n = A^{(1)}_n, the rule reproduces the ball-moving algorithm in Takahashi-Satsuma's box-ball system. For non-exceptional g_n other than A^{(1)}_n, it is described as a motion of particles and anti-particles which undergo pair-annihilation and creation through a neutral bound state. The algorithm is formulated without using representation theory nor crystal basis theory.Comment: LaTex2e 9 pages, no figure. For proceedings of SIDE IV conferenc

Crystal Interpretation of Kerov-Kirillov-Reshetikhin Bijection II. Proof for sl_n Case

In proving the Fermionic formulae, combinatorial bijection called the Kerov--Kirillov--Reshetikhin (KKR) bijection plays the central role. It is a bijection between the set of highest paths and the set of rigged configurations. In this paper, we give a proof of crystal theoretic reformulation of the KKR bijection. It is the main claim of Part I (math.QA/0601630) written by A. Kuniba, M. Okado, T. Takagi, Y. Yamada, and the author. The proof is given by introducing a structure of affine combinatorial $R$ matrices on rigged configurations.Comment: 45 pages, version for publication.

Factorization, reduction and embedding in integrable cellular automata

Factorized dynamics in soliton cellular automata with quantum group symmetry is identified with a motion of particles and anti-particles exhibiting pair creation and annihilation. An embedding scheme is presented showing that the D^{(1)}_n-automaton contains, as certain subsectors, the box-ball systems and all the other automata associated with the crystal bases of non-exceptional affine Lie algebras. The results extend the earlier ones to higher representations by a certain reduction and to a wider class of boundary conditions.Comment: LaTeX2e, 20 page

Perfect Crystals for U_q(D_4^{(3)})

A perfect crystal of any level is constructed for the Kirillov-Reshetikhin module of $U_q(D_4^{(3)})$ corresponding to the middle vertex of the Dynkin diagram. The actions of Kashiwara operators are given explicitly. It is also shown that this family of perfect crystals is coherent. A uniqueness problem solved in this paper can be applied to other quantum affine algebras.Comment: 27 page

The A^{(1)}_M automata related to crystals of symmetric tensors

A soliton cellular automaton associated with crystals of symmetric tensor representations of the quantum affine algebra U'_q(A^{(1)}_M) is introduced. It is a crystal theoretic formulation of the generalized box-ball system in which capacities of boxes and carriers are arbitrary and inhomogeneous. Scattering matrices of two solitons coincide with the combinatorial R matrices of U'_q(A^{(1)}_{M-1}). A piecewise linear evolution equation of the automaton is identified with an ultradiscrete limit of the nonautonomous discrete KP equation. A class of N soliton solutions is obtained through the ultradiscretization of soliton solutions of the latter.Comment: 45 pages, latex2e, 2 figure

Combinatorial Bethe ansatz and ultradiscrete Riemann theta function with rational characteristics

The U_q(\hat{sl}_2) vertex model at q=0 with periodic boundary condition is an integrable cellular automaton in one-dimension. By the combinatorial Bethe ansatz, the initial value problem is solved for arbitrary states in terms of an ultradiscrete analogue of the Riemann theta function with rational characteristics.Comment: 9 page

Box ball system associated with antisymmetric tensor crystals

A new box ball system associated with an antisymmetric tensor crystal of the quantum affine algebra of type A is considered. This includes the so-called colored box ball system with capacity 1 as the simplest case. Infinite number of conserved quantities are constructed and the scattering rule of two olitons are given explicitly.Comment: 15 page
