Quiver Hall-Littlewood functions and Kostka-Shoji polynomials


الملخص بالإنكليزية

For any triple $(i,a,mu)$ consisting of a vertex $i$ in a quiver $Q$, a positive integer $a$, and a dominant $GL_a$-weight $mu$, we define a quiver current $H^{(i,a)}_mu$ acting on the tensor power $Lambda^Q$ of symmetric functions over the vertices of $Q$. These provide a quiver generalization of parabolic Garsia-Jing creation operators in the theory of Hall-Littlewood symmetric functions. For a triple $(mathbf{i},mathbf{a},mu(bullet))$ of sequences of such data, we define the quiver Hall-Littlewood function $H^{mathbf{i},mathbf{a}}_{mu(bullet)}$ as the result of acting on $1inLambda^Q$ by the corresponding sequence of quiver currents. The quiver Kostka-Shoji polynomials are the expansion coefficients of $H^{mathbf{i},mathbf{a}}_{mu(bullet)}$ in the tensor Schur basis. These polynomials include the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials and parabolic Kostka polynomials (Jordan quiver) and the Kostka-Shoji polynomials (cyclic quiver) as special cases. We show that the quiver Kostka-Shoji polynomials are graded multiplicities in the equivariant Euler characteristic of a vector bundle on Lusztigs convolution diagram determined by the sequences $mathbf{i},mathbf{a}$. For certain compositions of currents we conjecture higher cohomology vanishing of the associated vector bundle on Lusztigs convolution diagram. For quivers with no branching we propose an explicit positive formula for the quiver Kostka-Shoji polynomials in terms of catabolizable multitableaux. We also relate our constructions to $K$-theoretic Hall algebras, by realizing the quiver Kostka-Shoji polynomials as natural structure constants and showing that the quiver currents provide a symmetric function lifting of the corresponding shuffle product. In the case of a cyclic quiver, we explain how the quiver currents arise in Saitos vertex representation of the quantum toroidal algebra of type $mathfrak{sl}_r$.
