Abstract:

Using the methods of Kang et al. and recent results on the characters of Kirillov–Reshetikhin modules by Nakajima and Hernandez, the existence of Kirillov–Reshetikhin crystals $B^{r,s}$ is established for all nonexceptional affine types. We also prove that the crystals $B^{r,s}$ of type $B_n^{(1)}$, $D_n^{(1)}$, and $A_{2n-1}^{(2)}$ are isomorphic to recently constructed combinatorial crystals for $r$ not a spin node.
