Lakshmibai-Seshadri paths and non-symmetric Cauchy identity

Abstract: We give a simple crystal theoretic interpretation of the Lascoux's expansion of a non-symmetric Cauchy kernel $\prod_{i+ j\leq n+1}(1-x_iy_j)^{-1}$, which is given in terms of Demazure characters and atoms. We give a bijective proof of the non-symmetric Cauchy identity using the crystal of Lakshmibai-Seshadri paths, and extend it to the case of continuous crystals.
