Abstract: By modifying an earlier method of the authors (2008), certain affine geometric crystals are realized in affinization of the fundamental representation $ W(\varpi_1)_l$, and the tropical R maps for the affine geometric crystals are described explicitly. We also define prehomogeneous geometric crystals and show that for a positive geometric crystal, the connectedness of the corresponding ultra-discretized crystal is the sufficient condition for prehomogeneity of the positive geometric crystal. Moreover, the uniqueness of tropical R maps is discussed.
