On crystal operators in Lusztig's parametrizations and string cone   defining inequalities
  Let $\mathbf{w}_0$ be a reduced expression for the longest element of the Weyl group, adapted to a quiver of type $A_n$. We compare Lusztig's and Kashiwara's (string) parametrizations of the canonical basis associated with $\mathbf{w}_0$. Crystal operators act in a finite number of patterns in Lusztig's parametrization, which may be seen as vectors. We show this set gives the system of defining inequalities of the string cone constructed by Gleizer and Postnikov. We use combinatorics of Auslander-Reiten quivers, and as a by-product we get an alternative enumeration of a set of inequalities defining the string cone, based on hammocks.
