Abstract

The talk focuses on crystal bases and their combinatorial models in quantum group representation theory. It introduces the concept of crystal bases through examples, explains how crystal graphs describe representations and tensor product decompositions, covers perfect crystal theory for quantum affine algebras and Young wall realizations of affine highest weight crystals, and discusses applications in i-quantum groups, quiver Hecke algebra representations, and polytopal realizations of crystal bases.
