On complete solution of the quantum Dell system

The mother functions for the eigenfunctions of the Koroteev-Shakirov version of quantum double-elliptic (Dell) Hamiltonians can be presented as infinite series in Miwa variables, very similar to the recent conjecture due to J. Shiraishi. Further studies should clear numerous remaining obstacles and thus solve the long-standing problem of explicitly constructing a Dell system, the top member of the Calogero-Moser-Ruijsenaars system, with the $PQ$-duality fully explicit at the elliptic level.

Difference of mutant knot invariants and their differential expansion

We evaluate the differences of HOMFLY-PT invariants for pairs of mutant knots colored with representations of $SL(N)$, which are large enough to distinguish between them. These mutant pairs include the pretzel mutants, which require at least the representation, labeled by the Young diagram $[4,2]$. We discuss the differential expansion for the differences, it is non-trivial in the case of mutants, which have the non-zero defect. The most effective technical tool, in this case, turns out to be the standard Reshetikhin-Turaev approach.

Hopf superpolynomial from topological vertices

Link/knot invariants are series with integer coefficients, and it is a long-standing problem to get them positive and possessing cohomological interpretation. Constructing positive "superpolynomials" is not straightforward, especially for colored invariants. A simpler alternative is a multi-parametric generalization of the character expansion, which leads to colored "hyperpolynomials". The third construction involves branes on resolved conifolds, which gives rise to still another family of invariants associated with composite representations. We revisit this triality issue in the simple case of the Hopf link and discover a previously overlooked way to produce positive colored superpolynomials from the DIM-governed four-point functions, thus paving a way to a new relation between super- and hyperpolynomials.

Shiraishi functor and non-Kerov deformation of Macdonald polynomials

We suggest a further generalization of the hypergeometric-like series due to M. Noumi and J. Shiraishi by substituting the Pochhammer symbol with a nearly arbitrary function. Moreover, this generalization is valid for the entire Shiraishi series, not only for its Noumi-Shiraishi part. The theta function needed in the recently suggested description of the double-elliptic systems, 6d N=2* SYM instanton calculus and the doubly-compactified network models, is a very particular member of this huge family. The series depends on two kinds of variables, $\vec x$ and $\vec y$, and on a set of parameters, which becomes infinitely large now. Still, one of the parameters, $p$ is distinguished by its role in the series grading. When $\vec y$ are restricted to a discrete subset labeled by Young diagrams, the series multiplied by a monomial factor reduces to a polynomial at any given order in $p$. All this makes the map from functions to the hypergeometric-like series very promising, and we call it Shiraishi functor despite it remains to be seen, what are exactly the morphisms that it preserves. Generalized Noumi-Shiraishi (GNS) symmetric polynomials inspired by the Shiraishi functor in the leading order in $p$ can be obtained by a triangular transform from the Schur polynomials and possess an interesting grading. They provide a family of deformations of Macdonald polynomials, as rich as the family of Kerov functions, still very different from them, and, in fact, much closer to the Macdonald polynomials. In particular, unlike the Kerov case, these polynomials do not depend on the ordering of Young diagrams in the triangular expansion.

Simulation-based optimization of a multilayer 10B-RPC thermal neutron detector

A Monte Carlo simulation-based optimization of a multilayer 10B-RPC thermal neutron detector is performed targeting an increase in the counting rate capability while maintaining high (>50%) detection efficiency for thermal neutrons. The converter layer thicknesses of individual RPCs are optimized for several configurations of a detector containing a stack of 10 double gap RPCs. The results suggest that it is possible to reach a counting rate which is by a factor of eight higher in comparison to the rate of a detector with only one double-gap RPC. The effect of neutron scattering inside the detector contributing to the background is analyzed and design modifications of the first detector prototype, tested at neutron beam, are suggested.

KNTZ trick from arborescent calculus and the structure of differential expansion

The recently suggested KNTZ trick completed the lasting search for exclusive Racah matrices $\bar S$ and $S$ for all rectangular representations and has a potential to help in the non-rectangular case as well. This was the last lacking insight about the structure of differential expansion of (rectangularly-)colored knot polynomials for twist knots -- and the resulting success is a spectacular achievement of modern knot theory in a classical field of representation theory, which was originally thought to be a tool for knot calculus but instead appeared to be its direct beneficiary. In this paper we explain that the KNTZ ansatz is actually a suggestion to convert the arborescent evolution matrix $\bar S\bar T^2\bar S$ into triangular form ${\cal B}$ and demonstrate how this works and what is the form of the old puzzles and miracles of the differential expansions from this perspective. The main new fully result is the conjecture for the triangular matrix ${\cal B}$ in the case of non-rectangular representation $[3,1]$. This paper does not simplify any calculations, but highlights the remaining problems, which one needs to overcome in order to {\it prove} that things really work. We believe that this discussion is also useful for further steps towards non-rectangular case and the related search of the gauge-invariant arborescent vertices. As an example we formulate a puzzling, still experimentally supported conjecture, that the study of twist knots only is sufficient to describe the shape of the differential expansion for all knots.

Correspondence between Feynman diagrams and operators in quantum field theory that emerges from tensor model

A novel functorial relationship in perturbative quantum field theory is pointed out that associates Feynman diagrams (FD) having no external line in one theory ${\bf Th}_1$ with singlet operators in another one ${\bf Th}_2$ having an additional $U({\cal N})$ symmetry and is illustrated by the case where ${\bf Th}_1$ and ${\bf Th}_2$ are respectively the rank $r-1$ and the rank $r$ complex tensor model. The values of FD in ${\bf Th}_1$ agree with the large ${\cal N}$ limit of the Gaussian average of those operators in ${\bf Th}_2$. The recursive shift in rank by this FD functor converts numbers into vectors, then into matrices, and then into rank $3$ tensors ${\ldots}$ This FD functor can straightforwardly act on the $d$ dimensional tensorial quantum field theory counterparts as well. In the case of rank 2-rank 3 correspondence, it can be combined with the geometrical pictures of the dual of the original FD, namely, equilateral triangulations (Grothendieck's dessins d'enfant) to form a triality which may be regarded as a bulk-boundary correspondence.

Tensorial generalization of characters

In rainbow tensor models, which generalize rectangular complex matrix model (RCM) and possess a huge gauge symmetry $U(N_1)\times\ldots\times U(N_r)$, we introduce a new sub-basis in the linear space of gauge invariant operators, which is a redundant basis in the space of operators with non-zero Gaussian averages. Its elements are labeled by $r$-tuples of Young diagrams of a given size equal to the power of tensor field. Their tensor model averages are just products of dimensions: $\Big<χ_{R_1,\ldots,R_r}\Big> \sim C_{R_1,\ldots, R_r}D_{R_1}(N_1)\ldots D_{R_r}(N_r)$ of representations $R_i$ of the linear group $SL(N_i)$, with $C_{R_1,\ldots, R_r}$ made of the Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of representations $R_i$ of the symmetric group. Moreover, not only the averages but the operators $χ_{\vec R}$ themselves exist only when these $C_{\vec R}$ are non-vanishing. This sub-basis is much similar to the basis of characters (Schur functions) in matrix models, which is distinguished by the property $\Big<{\rm character}\Big> \sim { character}$, which opens a way to lift the notion and the theory of characters (Schur functions) from matrices to tensors. In particular, operators $χ_{\vec R}$ are eigenfunctions of operators which generalize the usual cut-and-join operators $\hat W$; they satisfy orthogonality conditions similar to the standard characters, but they do not form a {\it full} linear basis for all gauge-invariant operators, only for those which have non-vanishing Gaussian averages.

Hook variables: cut-and-join operators and $τ$-functions

Young diagrams can be parameterized with the help of hook variables, which is well known but never studied in big detail. We demonstrate that this is the most adequate parameterization for many physical applications: from the Schur functions, conventional, skew and shifted, which all satisfy their own kinds of determinant formulas in these coordinates, to KP/Toda integrability and related basis of cut-and-join $\hat W$-operators, which are both actually expressed through the single-hook diagrams. In particular, we discuss a new type of multi-component KP $τ$-functions, Matisse $τ$-functions. We also demonstrate that the Casimir operators, which are responsible for integrability, are single-hook, with the popular basis of "completed cycles" being distinguished by especially simple coefficients in the corresponding expansion. The Casimir operators also generate the $q=t$ Ruijsenaars Hamiltonians. However, these properties are broken by the naive Macdonald deformation, which is the reason for the loss of KP/Toda integrability and related structures in $q$-$t$ matrix models.

Complete solution to Gaussian tensor model and its integrable properties

Similarly to the complex matrix model, the rainbow tensor models are superintegrable in the sense that arbitrary Gaussian correlators are explicitly expressed through the Clebsh-Gordan coefficients. We introduce associated (Ooguri-Vafa type) partition functions and describe their $W$-representations. We also discuss their integrability properties, which can be further improved by better adjusting the way the partition function is defined. This is a new avatar of the old unresolved problem with non-Abelian integrability concerning a clever choice of the partition function. This is a part of the long-standing problem to define a non-Abelian lift of integrability from the fundamental to generic representation families of arbitrary Lie algebras.

Discrete Painleve equation, Miwa variables, and string equation in 5d matrix models

The modern version of conformal matrix model (CMM) describes conformal blocks in the Dijkgraaf-Vafa phase. Therefore it possesses a determinant representation and becomes a Toda chain $τ$-function only after a peculiar Fourier transform in internal dimensions. Moreover, in CMM Hirota equations arise in a peculiar discrete form (when the couplings of CMM are actually Miwa time-variables). Instead, this integrability property is actually independent on the measure in the original hypergeometric integral. To get hypergeometric functions, one needs to pick up a very special $τ$-function satisfying an additional "string equation". Usually, its role is played by the lowest $L_{-1}$ Virasoro constraint, but, in the Miwa variables, it turns into a finite-difference equation with respect to the Miwa variables. One can get rid of these differences by rewriting the string equation in terms of some double ratios of the shifted $τ$-functions, and then these ratios satisfy more sophisticated equations equivalent to the discrete Painlevé equations by M. Jimbo and H. Sakai ($q$-PVI equation). They look much simpler in the $q$-deformed ($"5d"$) matrix model, while in the "continuous" limit $q\longrightarrow 1$ to $4d$ one should consider the Miwa variables with non-unit multiplicities, what finally converts the simple discrete Painlevé $q$-PVI into sophisticated differential Painlevé VI equations, which will be considered elsewhere.

On Hamiltonians for Kerov functions

Kerov Hamiltonians are defined as a set of commuting operators which have Kerov functions as common eigenfunctions. In the particular case of Macdonald polynomials, well known are the exponential Ruijsenaars Hamiltonians, but the exponential shape is not preserved in lifting to the Kerov level. Straightforwardly lifted is a bilinear expansion in Schur polynomials, the expansion coefficients being factorized and restricted to single-hook diagrams. However, beyond the Macdonald locus, the coefficients do not celebrate these properties, even for the simplest Hamiltonian in the set. The coefficients are easily expressed in terms of the eigenvalues, and, if so defined, the set of commuting Hamiltonians is enormously large: one can build one for each arbitrary set of eigenvalues $\{E_R\}$, specified independently for each Young diagrams $R$. A problem with these Hamiltonians is that they are constructed with the help of Kostka matrix instead of defining it, and thus are less powerful than the Ruijsenaars ones.

On generalized Macdonald polynomials

Generalized Macdonald polynomials (GMP) are eigenfunctions of specifically-deformed Ruijsenaars Hamiltonians and are built as triangular polylinear combinations of Macdonald polynomials. They are orthogonal with respect to a modified scalar product, which could be constructed with the help of an increasingly important triangular perturbation theory, showing up in a variety of applications. A peculiar feature of GMP is that denominators in this expansion are fully factorized, which is a consequence of a hidden symmetry resulting from the special choice of the Hamiltonian deformation. We introduce also a simplified but deformed version of GMP, which we call generalized Schur functions. Our basic examples are bilinear in Macdonald polynomials.

Pentad and triangular structures behind the Racah matrices

Somewhat unexpectedly, the study of the family of twisted knots revealed a hidden structure behind exclusive Racah matrices $\bar S$, which control non-associativity of the representation product in a peculiar channel $R\otimes \bar R \otimes R \longrightarrow R$. These $\bar S$ are simultaneously symmetric and orthogonal, and therefore admit two decompositions: as quadratic forms, $\bar S \sim {\cal E}^{tr}{\cal E}$, and as operators: $\bar T\bar S\bar T = S T^{-1} S^{-1}$. Here $\bar T$ and $T$ consist of the eigenvalues of the quantum ${\cal R}$-matrices in channels $R\otimes \bar R$ and $R\otimes R$ respectively, $S$ is the second exclusive Racah matrix for $\bar R\otimes R\otimes R \longrightarrow R$ (still orthogonal, but no longer symmetric), and ${\cal E}$ is a {\it triangular} matrix. It can be further used to construct the KNTZ evolution matrix ${\cal B}={\cal E}\bar T^2{\cal E}^{-1}$, which is also triangular and explicitly expressible through the skew Schur and Macdonald functions -- what makes Racah matrices calculable. Moreover, ${\cal B}$ is somewhat similar to Ruijsenaars Hamiltonian, which is used to define Macdonald functions, and gets triangular in the Schur basis. Discovery of this pentad structure $(\bar T,\bar S,S,{\cal E},{\cal B})$, associated with the universal ${\cal R}$-matrix, can lead to further insights about representation theory, knot invariants and Macdonald-Kerov functions.

Extension of KNTZ trick to non-rectangular representations

We claim that the recently discovered universal-matrix precursor for the $F$ functions, which define the differential expansion of colored polynomials for twist and double braid knots, can be extended from rectangular to non-rectangular representations. This case is far more interesting, because it involves multiplicities and associated mysterious gauge invariance of arborescent calculus. In this paper we make the very first step -- reformulate in this form the previously known formulas for the simplest non-rectangular representations [r,1] and demonstrate their drastic simplification after this reformulation.

Can tangle calculus be applicable to hyperpolynomials?

We make a new attempt at the recently suggested program to express knot polynomials through topological vertices, which can be considered as a possible approach to the tangle calculus: we discuss the Macdonald deformation of the relation between the convolution of two topological vertices and the HOMFLY-PT invariant of the 4-component link $L_{8n8}$, which both depend on four arbitrary representations. The key point is that both of these are related to the Hopf polynomials in composite representations, which are in turn expressed through composite Schur functions. The latter are further expressed through the skew Schur polynomials via the remarkable Koike formula. It is this decomposition that breaks under the Macdonald deformation and gets restored only in the (large $N$) limit of $A^{\pm 1}\longrightarrow 0$. Another problem is that the Hopf polynomials in the composite representations in the refined case are "chiral bilinears" of Macdonald polynomials, while convolutions of topological vertices involve "non-chiral combinations" with one of the Macdonald polynomials entering with permuted $t$ and $q$. There are also other mismatches between the Hopf polynomials in the composite representation and the topological 4-point function in the refined case, which we discuss.

The MacMahon R-matrix

We introduce an $R$-matrix acting on the tensor product of MacMahon representations of Ding-Iohara-Miki (DIM) algebra $U_{q,t}(\widehat{\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}}_1)$. This $R$-matrix acts on pairs of $3d$ Young diagrams and retains the nice symmetry of the DIM algebra under the permutation of three deformation parameters $q$, $t^{-1}$ and $\frac{t}{q}$. We construct the intertwining operator for a tensor product of the horizontal Fock representation and the vertical MacMahon representation and show that the intertwiners are permuted using the MacMahon $R$-matrix.

On exclusive Racah matrices $\bar S$ for rectangular representations

We elaborate on the recent observation that evolution for twist knots simplifies when described in terms of triangular evolution matrix ${\cal B}$, not just its eigenvalues $Λ$, and provide a universal formula for ${\cal B}$, applicable to arbitrary rectangular representation $R=[r^s]$. This expression is in terms of skew characters and it remains literally the same for the 4-graded rectangularly-colored hyperpolynomials, if characters are substituted by Macdonald polynomials. Due to additional factorization property of the differential-expansion coefficients for the double-braid knots, explicit knowledge of twist-family evolution leads to a nearly explicit answer for Racah matrix $\bar S$ in arbitrary rectangular representation $R$. We also relate matrix evolution to existence of a peculiar rotation $U$ of Racah matrix, which diagonalizes the $Z$-factors in the differential expansion -- what can be a key to further generalization to non-rectangular representations $R$.
