Affine crystals

Student-Run Discrete Math Seminar

Speaker: Anne Schilling, UC Davis
Location: 1147 MSB
Start time: Tue, May 15 2007, 1:10PM

I will introduce Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals, which are finite-dimensional affine crystals. We will study combinatorial models for these crystals which are based on automorphisms of the Dynkin diagram.
