Kashiwara–Nakashima–Okado conjecture on positive geometric crystals and perfect crystals

About 19 years old · traced to

Let GG and g=⟨t,ei,fi⟩i∈I\mathfrak g=\langle \mathfrak t,e_i,f_i\rangle_{i\in I} be the affine Kac–Moody group and algebra associated with a generalized Cartan matrix, and let Bw−B^-_w be the Schubert-cell model defined by products of the elements Yi(c)Y_i(c). For i∈Ii\in I, let W(ϖi)W(\varpi_i) be the fundamental representation with extremal weight ϖi\varpi_i, let P(ϖi)\mathbb P(\varpi_i) be its projectivization, let ci∨=max⁡(1,2/(αi,αi))c_i^\vee={\rm \max}(1,2/(\alpha_i,\alpha_i)), and for an integral weight μ\mu set I(μ)={j∈I∣⟨αj∨,μ⟩≥0}I(\mu)=\{j\in I\mid\langle\alpha_j^\vee,\mu\rangle\geq0\}. For an extremal vector u∈W(ϖi)μu\in W(\varpi_i)_\mu, write t(ci∨μ)=ιwt(c_i^\vee\mu)=\iota w in the extended Weyl group, with ι\iota a Dynkin diagram automorphism and w=si1⋯sikw=s_{i_1}\cdots s_{i_k}. Kashiwara–Nakashima–Okado conjecture. For every i∈Ii\in I, there exist a unique variety XX endowed with a positive g\mathfrak g-geometric crystal structure and a rational mapping π ⁣:X⟶P(ϖi)\pi\colon X\longrightarrow\mathbb P(\varpi_i) such that, for every such uu, there is a birational mapping ξ ⁣:Bw−⟶X\xi\colon B^-_w\longrightarrow X which is a morphism of gI(μ)\mathfrak g_{I(\mu)}-geometric crystals and for which π∘ξ\pi\circ\xi maps Yi1(x1)⋯Yik(xk)Y_{i_1}(x_1)\cdots Y_{i_k}(x_k) to Yi1(x1)⋯Yik(xk)u‾Y_{i_1}(x_1)\cdots Y_{i_k}(x_k)\overline u, where u‾\overline u is the line containing uu; moreover, the ultra-discretization of XX is isomorphic to the crystal B∞(ϖi)B_\infty(\varpi_i) of the Langlands dual gL\mathfrak g^L. The conjecture is known in several cases, including i=1i=1 for the listed affine Lie algebras, while other cases remain open.
