Anderson–Mirković conjecture for the MV-polytope crystal structure

Let GG be a complex connected reductive group, let GG^{\vee} be its Langlands dual group, and let MV\mathcal{MV} denote the set of Mirković–Vilonen polytopes. For jIj\in I, let AMj:MVMVAM_j:\mathcal{MV}\to\mathcal{MV} be the Anderson–Mirković operator defined from the pseudo-Weyl-polytope data, and let f~j\widetilde{f}_j be the Kashiwara operator.

Anderson–Mirković conjecture. For every MV polytope PP and every jIj\in I, AMj(P)AM_j(P) is an MV polytope and

AMj(P)=f~j(P).AM_j(P)=\widetilde{f}_j(P).

The conjecture proposes an explicit description of the crystal operator on MV polytopes, avoiding the recursive solution of tropical Plücker relations. It was disproved by a counterexample in type C2C_2; hence it is not an open conjecture in the stated generality.
