Elementary construction of canonical bases, foldings, and piecewise linear bijections (2501.12568v1)
Published 22 Jan 2025 in math.QA
Abstract: Let ${\mathbf U}_q-$ be the negative half of a quantum group of finite type. We construct the canonical basis of ${\mathbf U}_q-$ by applying the folding theory of quantum groups, and piecewise linear parametrization of canonical basis. Our construction is elementary, in the sense that we don't appeal to Lusztig's geometric theory of canonical bases, nor to Kashiwara's theory of crystal bases.
