Abstract: A geometric theory of tensor product for $\mathfrak{gl}_{N}$ -crystals is described. In particular, the role of Spaltenstein varieties in the tensor product is explained, and thus a direct (non-combinatorial) proof of the fact that the number of irreducible components of a Spaltenstein variety is equal to a Littlewood-Richardson coefficient (i.e. certain tensor product multiplicity) is obtained.
