Crystal $\Bla$ in $B(\infty)$ for $G_2$ type Lie Algebra

Abstract: A previous work gave a combinatorial description of the crystal $B(\infty)$, in terms of certain simple Young tableaux referred to as the marginally large tableaux, for finite dimensional simple Lie algebras. Using this result, we present an explicit description of the crystal $B(\lambda)$, in terms of the marginally large tableaux, for the $G_2$ Lie algebra type. We also provide a new description of $B(\la)$, in terms of Nakajima monomials, that is in natural correspondence with our tableau description.
