Abstract: Let g be an affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Let U+ be the positive part of the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum enveloping algebra associated to g. We construct a basis of U+ which is related to the Kashiwara-Lusztig global crystal basis (or canonical basis) by an upper triangular matrix (with respect to an explicitly defined ordering) with 1's on the diagonal and with above diagonal entries in . Using this construction we study the global crystal basis B(Um) of the modified quantum enveloping algebra defined by Lusztig. We obtain a Peter-Weyl like decomposition of the crystal B(Um) (Theorem 4.18), as well as an explicit description of two-sided cells of B(Um) and the limit algebra of Um at q=0 (Theorem 6.45).
