Quantum toroidal gl(1) and Bethe ansatz

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.

Representations of quantum toroidal $gl_n$

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.

Quantum Algebraic Approach to Refined Topological Vertex

We establish the equivalence between the refined topological vertex of Iqbal-Kozcaz-Vafa and a certain representation theory of the quantum algebra of type W_{1+infty} introduced by Miki. Our construction involves trivalent intertwining operators Phi and Phi^* associated with triples of the bosonic Fock modules. Resembling the topological vertex, a triple of vectors in Z^2 is attached to each intertwining operator, which satisfy the Calabi-Yau and smoothness conditions. It is shown that certain matrix elements of Phi and Phi^* give the refined topological vertex C_{lambda mu nu}(t,q) of Iqbal-Kozcaz-Vafa. With another choice of basis, we recover the refined topological vertex C_{lambda mu}^nu(q,t) of Awata-Kanno. The gluing factors appears correctly when we consider any compositions of Phi and Phi^*. The spectral parameters attached to Fock spaces play the role of the K"ahler parameters.

Quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_1$ algebra : plane partitions

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.

Notes on Ding-Iohara algebra and AGT conjecture

We study the representation theory of the Ding-Iohara algebra $\calU$ to find $q$-analogues of the Alday-Gaiotto-Tachikawa (AGT) relations. We introduce the endomorphism $T(u,v)$ of the Ding-Iohara algebra, having two parameters $u$ and $v$. We define the vertex operator $Φ(w)$ by specifying the permutation relations with the Ding-Iohara generators $x^\pm(z)$ and $ψ^\pm(z)$ in terms of $T(u,v)$. For the level one representation, all the matrix elements of the vertex operators with respect to the Macdonald polynomials are factorized and written in terms of the Nekrasov factors for the $K$-theoretic partition functions as in the AGT relations. For higher levels $m=2,3,...$, we present some conjectures, which imply the existence of the $q$-analogues of the AGT relations.

Super Liouville conformal blocks from N=2 SU(2) quiver gauge theories

The conjecture about the correspondence between instanton partition functions in the N=2 SUSY Yang-Mills theory and conformal blocks of two-dimensional conformal field theories is extended to the case of the N=1 supersymmetric conformal blocks. We find that the necessary modification of the moduli space of instantons requires additional restriction of Z(2)-symmetry. This leads to an explicit form of the N=1 superconformal blocks in terms of Young diagrams with two sorts of cells.

Quantum continuous $\mathfrak{gl}_\infty$: Semi-infinite construction of representations

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 $u\in {\mathbb C}$. 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 $S\ddot H_N$ 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.

Quantum continuous $gl_\infty$: Tensor products of Fock modules and $W_n$ characters

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.

Kernel function and quantum algebras

We introduce an analogue $K_n(x,z;q,t)$ of the Cauchy-type kernel function for the Macdonald polynomials, being constructed in the tensor product of the ring of symmetric functions and the commutative algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over the degenerate $\mathbb{C} \mathbb{P}^1$. We show that a certain restriction of $K_n(x,z;q,t)$ with respect to the variable $z$ is neatly described by the tableau sum formula of Macdonald polynomials. Next, we demonstrate that the integer level representation of the Ding-Iohara quantum algebra naturally produces the currents of the deformed $\mathcal{W}$ algebra. Then we remark that the $K_n(x,z;q,t)$ emerges in the highest-to-highest correlation function of the deformed $\mathcal{W}$ algebra.

Gaudin models with irregular singularities

We introduce a class of quantum integrable systems generalizing the Gaudin model. The corresponding algebras of quantum Hamiltonians are obtained as quotients of the center of the enveloping algebra of an affine Kac-Moody algebra at the critical level, extending the construction of higher Gaudin Hamiltonians from hep-th/9402022 to the case of non-highest weight representations of affine algebras. We show that these algebras are isomorphic to algebras of functions on the spaces of opers on P^1 with regular as well as irregular singularities at finitely many points. We construct eigenvectors of these Hamiltonians, using Wakimoto modules of critical level, and show that their spectra on finite-dimensional representations are given by opers with trivial monodromy. We also comment on the connection between the generalized Gaudin models and the geometric Langlands correspondence with ramification.

Gelfand-Zetlin basis, Whittaker vectors and a bosonic formula for the $\sln$ principal subspace

We derive a bosonic formula for the character of the principal space in the level $k$ vacuum module for $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_{n+1}$, starting from a known fermionic formula for it. In our previous work, the latter was written as a sum consisting of Shapovalov scalar products of the Whittaker vectors for $U_{v^{\pm1}}(\mathfrak{gl}_{n+1})$. In this paper we compute these scalar products in the bosonic form, using the decomposition of the Whittaker vectors in the Gelfand-Zetlin basis. We show further that the bosonic formula obtained in this way is the quasi-classical decomposition of the fermionic formula.

A commutative algebra on degenerate CP^1 and Macdonald polynomials

We introduce a unital associative algebra A over degenerate CP^1. We show that A is a commutative algebra and whose Poincar'e series is given by the number of partitions. Thereby we can regard A as a smooth degeneration limit of the elliptic algebra introduced by one of the authors and Odesskii. Then we study the commutative family of the Macdonald difference operators acting on the space of symmetric functions. A canonical basis is proposed for this family by using A and the Heisenberg representation of the commutative family studied by one of the authors. It is found that the Ding-Iohara algebra provides us with an algebraic framework for the free filed construction. An elliptic deformation of our construction is discussed, showing connections with the Drinfeld quasi-Hopf twisting a la Babelon Bernard Billey, the Ruijsenaars difference operator and the operator M(q,t_1,t_2) of Okounkov-Pandharipande.

The Integrals of Motion for the Deformed Virasoro Algebra

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.

Principal $\hat{sl}(3)$ subspaces and quantum Toda Hamiltonian

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.

The Integrals of Motion for the Deformed W-Algebra Wqt(sl_N^)

We review the deformed W-algebra Wqt(sl_N^) and its screening currents. We explicitly construct the local integrals of motion I_n for this deformed W-algebra. We explicitly construct the nonlocal integrals of motion G_n by means of the screening currents. Our integrals of motion commute with each other, and give the elliptic version of those for the Virasoro algebra and the W-algebra W(sl_3^), obtained by V.Bazhanov, A.Hibberd, S.Khoroshkin, S.Lukyanov and Al.Zamolodchikov.

Two dimensional current algebras and affine fusion product

In this paper we study a family of commutative algebras generated by two infinite sets of generators. These algebras are parametrized by Young diagrams. We explain a connection of these algebras with the fusion product of integrable irreducible representations of the affine $sl_2$ Lie algebra. As an application we derive a fermionic formula for the character of the affine fusion product of two modules. These fusion products can be considered as a simplest example of the double affine Demazure modules.
