PBW bases and marginally large tableaux in type D
Ben Salisbury, Adam Schultze, Peter Tingley
TL;DR
This work addresses two realizations of the crystal $B(\infty)$ in type $D$: marginally large tableaux and a Kostant-partition/PBW model. It provides an explicit crystal isomorphism $\Psi$ between $\mathcal{T}(\infty)$ and $\mathrm{Kp}(\infty)$, describing the map row-by-row via the roots $\beta_{i,k}$ and $\gamma_{j,\ell}$ and proving $f_i^{\mathcal{T}}\Psi(T)=\Psi(f_i^{\mathrm{Kp}}T)$. Unlike the type $A$ case, the type $D$ map is not purely local and requires coordinated changes across multiple boxes; this is made concrete through a rowwise, diagrammatic analysis and the introduced stack notation. The results extend the type $A$ correspondence to type $D$ and provide practical, diagrammatic tools for understanding the crystal structure of $B(\infty)$ in this setting.
Abstract
We give an explicit description of the unique crystal isomorphism between two realizations of $B(\infty)$ in type $D$: that using marginally large tableaux and that using PBW monomials with respect to one particularly nice reduced expression of the longest word.
