We use the Whittaker vectors and the Drinfeld Casimir element to show that eigenfunctions of the difference Toda Hamiltonian can be expressed via fermionic formulas. Motivated by the combinatorics of the fermionic formulas we use the representation theory of the quantum groups to prove a number of identities for the coefficients of the eigenfunctions.
We establish the method of Bethe ansatz for the XXZ type model obtained from the R-matrix associated to quantum toroidal gl(1). We do that by using shuffle realizations of the modules and by showing that the Hamiltonian of the model is obtained from a simple multiplication operator by taking an appropriate quotient. We expect this approach to be applicable to a wide variety of models.
We construct an analog of the subalgebra $Ugl(n)otimes Ugl(m)$ of $Ugl(m+n)$ in the setting of quantum toroidal algebras and study the restrictions of various representations to this subalgebra.
We define and study representations of quantum toroidal $gl_n$ with natural bases labeled by plane partitions with various conditions. As an application, we give an explicit description of a family of highest weight representations of quantum affine $gl_n$ with generic level.
In third paper of the series we construct a large family of representations of the quantum toroidal $gl_1$ algebra whose bases are parameterized by plane partitions with various boundary conditions and restrictions. We study the corresponding formal characters. As an application we obtain a Gelfand-Zetlin type basis for a class of irreducible lowest weight $gl_infty$-modules.
We construct a family of irreducible representations of the quantum continuous $gl_infty$ whose characters coincide with the characters of representations in the minimal models of the $W_n$ algebras of $gl_n$ type. In particular, we obtain a simple combinatorial model for all representations of the $W_n$-algebras appearing in the minimal models in terms of $n$ interrelating partitions.
We begin a study of the representation theory of quantum continuous $mathfrak{gl}_infty$, which we denote by $mathcal E$. This algebra depends on two parameters and is a deformed version of the enveloping algebra of the Lie algebra of difference operators acting on the space of Laurent polynomials in one variable. Fundamental representations of $mathcal E$ are labeled by a continuous parameter $uin {mathbb C}$. The representation theory of $mathcal E$ has many properties familiar from the representation theory of $mathfrak{gl}_infty$: vector representations, Fock modules, semi-infinite constructions of modules. Using tensor products of vector representations, we construct surjective homomorphisms from $mathcal E$ to spherical double affine Hecke algebras $Sddot H_N$ for all $N$. A key step in this construction is an identification of a natural bases of the tensor products of vector representations with Macdonald polynomials. We also show that one of the Fock representations is isomorphic to the module constructed earlier by means of the $K$-theory of Hilbert schemes.
We explicitly construct two classes of infinitly many commutative operators in terms of the deformed Virasoro algebra. We call one of them local integrals and the other nonlocal one, since they can be regarded as elliptic deformations of the local and nonlocal integrals of motion obtained by V.Bazhanov, S.Lukyanov and Al.Zamolodchikov.
We study a class of representations of the Lie algebra of Laurent polynomials with values in the nilpotent subalgebra of sl(3). We derive Weyl-type (bosonic) character formulas for these representations. We establish a connection between the bosonic formulas and the Whittaker vector in the Verma module for the quantum group $U_v sl(3)$. We also obtain a fermionic formula for an eigenfunction of the sl(3) quantum Toda Hamiltonian.
