Cuspidal ribbon tableaux in affine type A
Cuspidal ribbon tableaux in affine type A
For any convex preorder on the set of positive roots of affine type A, we classify and construct all associated cuspidal and semicuspidal skew shapes. These combinatorial objects correspond to cuspidal and semicuspidal skew Specht modules for the Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebra of affine type A. Cuspidal skew shapes are ribbons, and …
