DESCRIPTION:Kashiwara operators partition the space of walks on lattices i
 nto crystals.  Appealing consequences of this fact include the expected va
 lue of nice functions on paths conditioned on a crystal is the trace of a 
 corresponding differential operator in a representation corresponding to t
 hat crystal and the definition of the actions of the Kashiwara operators o
 n paths fits well with the uncertainty principle.\nI will describe Kashiwa
 ra operators with particular reference to sl_2 and sl_3\, and explore how 
 concepts useful in physics\, such as action\, path integral and normal ord
 ering might be interpreted in the context of Kashiwara operators.  \n
