The combinatorics of crystals - what it is all about!
Algebra & Discrete Mathematics| Speaker: | Prof. Anne Schilling, Dept. of Math. UC Davis |
| Location: | 593 Kerr |
| Start time: | Tue, Oct 23 2001, 10:00AM |
Abstract: I will define crystal graphs and discuss some operations on Young tableaux which are necessary to understand them from a combinatorial viewpoint. Open problems and recent research results will also be mentioned. This talk will be elementary and should be suitable for graduate students/professors new to this field.
