is_perfect(ell=None)

Check if self is a perfect crystal of level ell.

A crystal \(\mathcal{B}\) is perfect of level \(\ell\) if:

  1. \(\mathcal{B}\) is isomorphic to the crystal graph of a finite-dimensional \(U_q'(\mathfrak{g})\)-module.

  2. \(\mathcal{B} \otimes \mathcal{B}\) is connected.

  3. There exists a \(\lambda\in X\), such that \(\mathrm{wt}(\mathcal{B}) \subset \lambda + \sum_{i\in I} \ZZ_{\le 0} \alpha_i\) and there is a unique element in \(\mathcal{B}\) of classical weight \(\lambda\).

  4. For all \(b \in \mathcal{B}\), \(\mathrm{level}(\varepsilon (b)) \geq \ell\).

  5. For all \(\Lambda\) dominant weights of level \(\ell\), there exist unique elements \(b_{\Lambda}, b^{\Lambda} \in \mathcal{B}\), such that \(\varepsilon(b_{\Lambda}) = \Lambda = \varphi(b^{\Lambda})\).

Points (1)-(3) are known to hold. This method checks points (4) and (5).

If self is the Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystal \(B^{r,s}\), then it was proven for non-exceptional types in [FOS2010] that it is perfect if and only if \(s/c_r\) is an integer (where \(c_r\) is a constant related to the type of the crystal).

It is conjectured this is true for all affine types.

energy_function(algorithm=None)

Return the energy function of self.

ALGORITHM:

definition

Let \(T\) be a tensor product of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals. Let \(R_i\) and \(H_i\) be the combinatorial \(R\)-matrix and local energy functions, respectively, acting on the \(i\) and \(i+1\) factors. Let \(D_B\) be the energy function of a single Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystal. The energy function is given by

\[D = \sum_{j > i} H_i R_{i+1} R_{i+2} \cdots R_{j-1} + \sum_j D_B R_1 R_2 \cdots R_{j-1},\]

where \(D_B\) acts on the rightmost factor.

grading

If self is an element of \(T\), a tensor product of perfect crystals of the same level, then use the affine grading to determine the energy. Specifically, let \(g\) denote the affine grading of self and \(d\) the affine grading of the maximal vector in \(T\). Then the energy of self is given by \(d - g\).

For more details, see Theorem 7.5 in [ST2011].

INPUT:

  • algorithm – (default: None) use one of the following algorithms to determine the energy function:

    • 'definition' - use the definition of the energy function;

    • 'grading' - use the affine grading;

    if not specified, then this uses 'grading' if all factors are perfect of the same level and otherwise this uses 'definition'

classical_weight()

Return the classical weight of self.

EXAMPLES:

sage: R = RootSystem(['A',2,1])
sage: La = R.weight_space().basis()
sage: LS = crystals.ProjectedLevelZeroLSPaths(2*La[1])
sage: hw = LS.classically_highest_weight_vectors()
sage: [(v.weight(), v.classical_weight()) for v in hw]
[(-2*Lambda[0] + 2*Lambda[1], (2, 0, 0)),
 (-Lambda[0] + Lambda[2], (1, 1, 0))]
super_categories()

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.categories.loop_crystals import RegularLoopCrystals
sage: RegularLoopCrystals().super_categories()
[Category of regular crystals,
 Category of loop crystals]
