Abstract: In the $ \mathfrak{sl}_n$ case, A. Berenstein and A. Zelevinsky (1996) studied the Schützenberger involution in terms of Lusztig's canonical basis. We generalize their construction and formulas for any semisimple Lie algebra. We use the geometric lifting of the canonical basis, on which an analogue of the Schützenberger involution can be given. As an application, we construct semitoric degenerations of Richardson varieties, following a method of P. Caldero (2002).
