Crystal Bases for Quantum Generalized Kac-Moody Algebras

We construct a canonical basis for quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra via semisimple perverse sheaves on varieties of representations of quivers. We compare this basis with the one recently defined purely algebraically by Jeong, Kang and Kashiwara.

We study the representation theory of a quantum symmetric pair $(\mathbf{U},\mathbf{U}^{\jmath})$ with two parameters $p,q$ of type AIII, by using highest weight theory and a variant of Kashiwara's crystal basis theory. Namely, we classify the irreducible $\mathbf{U}^{\jmath}$-modules in a suitable category and associate with each of them a basis at $p=q=0$, the $\jmath$-crystal basis. The $\jmath$-crystal bases have nice combinatorial properties as the ordinary crystal bases...

We give a general way of representing the crystal (base) corresponding to the intgrable highest weight modules of quantum Kac-Moody algebras, which is called polyhedral realizations. This is applied to describe explicitly the crystal bases of integrable highest weight modules for arbitrary rank 2 Kac-Moody algebra cases, the classical A_n-case and the affine A^{(1)}_{n-1}-case.

We construct a crystal base of $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))^-$, the negative half of the quantum superalgebra $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}(m|n))$. We give a combinatorial description of the associated crystal $\mathscr{B}_{m|n}(\infty)$, which is equal to the limit of the crystals of the ($q$-deformed) Kac modules $K(\lambda)$. We also construct a crystal base of a parabolic Verma module $X(\lambda)$ associated with the subalgebra $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_{0|n})$, and show that it is compatible ...

This dissertation addresses several current problems in Representation Theory using crystal bases. It incorporates the results of arXiv:math.QA/0408113 and arXiv:math.RT/0603547, as well as previously unpublished results.

In this paper, we give a new realization of crystal bases for irreducible highest weight modules over $U_q(G_2)$ in terms of monomials. We also discuss the natural connection between the monomial realization and tableau realization.

We present a geometric construction of highest weight crystals for quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebras. It is given in terms of the irreducible components of certain Lagrangian subvarieties of Nakajima's quiver varieties associated to quivers with edge loops.

We give a brief survey of recent developments in the highest weight representation theory and the crystal basis theory of the quantum queer superalgebra $U_q(\mathfrak{q}(n))$.

This is a survey paper of the theory of crystal bases, global bases and the cluster algebra structure on the quantum coordinate rings.

In this paper, we develop the theory of abstract crystals for quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebras. Our construction is different from the one given by Bozec. We further prove the crystal embedding theorem and provide a characterization of ${B}(\infty)$ and ${B}(\lambda)$ as its application, where ${B}(\infty)$ and ${B}(\lambda)$ are the crystals of the negative half part of the quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebra $U_q(\mathfrak g)$ and its irreducible highest weight module $V(\lam...
