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.
In our previous works on the XXZ chain of spin one half, we have studied the problem of constructing a basis of local operators whose members have simple vacuum expectation values. For this purpose a pair of fermionic creation operators have been introduced. In this article we extend this construction to the spin one case. We formulate the fusion procedure for the creation operators, and find a triplet of bosonic as well as two pairs of fermionic creation operators. We show that the resulting basis of local operators satisfies the dual reduced qKZ equation.
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.
Extending our previous construction in the sine-Gordon model, we show how to introduce two kinds of fermionic screening operators, in close analogy with conformal field theory with c<1.
We study one-point functions of the sine-Gordon model on a cylinder. Our approach is based on a fermionic description of the space of descendent fields, developed in our previous works for conformal field theory and the sine-Gordon model on the plane. In the present paper we make an essential addition by giving a connection between various primary fields in terms of yet another kind of fermions. The one-point functions of primary fields and descendants are expressed in terms of a single function defined via the data from the thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz equations.
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.
