The crystal structure on the set of Mirković-Vilonen polytopes (Q2381958)

The author shows that the crystal structures on Lusztig's canonical basis and the Mirković--Vilonen cycles on the affine Grassmannian agree. As an application, he proves for \(\mathfrak{sl}_n\) a conjecture of Anderson--Mirković that describes the Braberman--Finkelberg--Gaitsgory crystal structure on the level of MV polytopes and gives a counterexample to this conjecture for \(\mathfrak{sp}_6\). He also explains how Kashiwara data can be recovered from MV polytopes.
