Crystal graphs for representations of the \(q\)-analogue of classical Lie algebras (Q1327038)

The notion of a crystal base was introduced by Kashiwara and proved to exist uniquely for any integrable highest weight representation of the \(q\)-analogue of symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebras. In the present paper the authors give their explicit description for finite dimensional irreducible representations of \(A_ n\), \(B_ n\), \(C_ n\) and \(D_ n\). In particular, in the \(A_ n\)-case the crystal bases are labelled by the semistandard tableaux. The description is concrete and self-contained.
