Abstract
We explain extremal weight crystals over affine Lie algebras of infinite rank using combinatorial models: a spinor model due to Kwon, and an infinite rank analogue of Kashiwara-Nakashima tableaux due to Lecouvey. In particular, we show that Lecouvey’s tableau model is isomorphic to an extremal weight crystal of level zero. Using these combinatorial models, we explain an algebra structure of the Grothendieck ring for a category consisting of some extremal weight crystals.
期刊介绍:
Algebras and Representation Theory features carefully refereed papers relating, in its broadest sense, to the structure and representation theory of algebras, including Lie algebras and superalgebras, rings of differential operators, group rings and algebras, C*-algebras and Hopf algebras, with particular emphasis on quantum groups.
The journal contains high level, significant and original research papers, as well as expository survey papers written by specialists who present the state-of-the-art of well-defined subjects or subdomains. Occasionally, special issues on specific subjects are published as well, the latter allowing specialists and non-specialists to quickly get acquainted with new developments and topics within the field of rings, algebras and their applications.
