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 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.
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 give expressions for the characters of $(1,p)$ logarithmic conformal field models in the Gordon-type form. The formulas are obtained in terms of ``quasiparticles'' that are Virasoro $Φ_{2,1}$ primary fields and generalize the symplectic fermions.
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.
In this paper we study the PBW filtration on irreducible integrable highest weight representations of affine Kac-Moody algebra $\gh$. The $n$-th space of this filtration is spanned with the vectors $x_1... x_s v$, where $x_i\in\gh$, $s\le n$ and $v$ is a highest weight vector. For the vacuum module we give a conjectural description of the corresponding adjoint graded space in terms of generators and relations. For $\g$ of the type $A_1$ we prove our conjecture and derive the fermionic formula for the graded character.
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.
The filtration of the Virasoro minimal series representations M^{(p,p')}_{r,s} induced by the (1,3)-primary field $ϕ_{1,3}(z)$ is studied. For 1< p'/p< 2, a conjectural basis of M^{(p,p')}_{r,s} compatible with the filtration is given by using monomial vectors in terms of the Fourier coefficients of $ϕ_{1,3}(z)$. In support of this conjecture, we give two results. First, we establish the equality of the character of the conjectural basis vectors with the character of the whole representation space. Second, for the unitary series (p'=p+1), we establish for each $m$ the equality between the character of the degree $m$ monomial basis and the character of the degree $m$ component in the associated graded module Gr(M^{(p,p+1)}_{r,s}) with respect to the filtration defined by $ϕ_{1,3}(z)$.
In this paper we derive two bosonic (alternating sign) formulas for branching functions for general affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra $\g$. Both formulas are given in terms of the Weyl group and string functions of $\g$.
In this paper we study an approximation of tensor product of irreducible integrable $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$ representations by infinite fusion products. This gives an approximation of the corresponding coset theories. As an application we represent characters of spaces of these theories as limits of certain restricted Kostka polynomials. This leads to the bosonic (which is known) and fermionic (which is new) formulas for the $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$ branching functions.
In this paper we give two realizations of the restricted Kostka polynomials for $\sl_2$. Firstly we identify the restricted Kostka polynomials with a characters of the zero homology of the current algebra with a coefficients in a certain modules. As a corollary we reobtain the alternating sum formula. Secondly we show that the restricted Kostka polynomials are a $q$-multiplicities of the decomposition of the certain integrable $\hat{\sl}_2$-modules to the irreducible components. This allows to write a kind of fermionic formula for the Virasoro unitary models.
Let $ϕ_{\sqrt{2m}}(z)=\sum_{n\in\Z} a_n z^{-n-m}, m\in\N$ be bosonic vertex operator, $L$ some irreducible representation of the vertex algebra $\A_{(m)}$, associated with one-dimensional lattice $\Zl$, generated by vector $l$, $\bra l,l \ket=2m$. Fix some extremal vector $v\in L$. We study the principle subspace $\C[a_i]_{i\in\Z}\cdot v$ and its finitization $\C[a_i]_{i>N}\cdot v$. We construct their bases and find characters. In the case of finitization basis is given in terms of Jack polynomials.
For each $A\in\N^n$ we define a Schubert variety $\sh_A$ as a closure of the $\Slt(\C[t])$-orbit in the projectivization of the fusion product $M^A$. We clarify the connection of the geometry of the Schubert varieties with an algebraic structure of $M^A$ as $\slt\otimes\C[t]$ modules. In the case when all the entries of $A$ are different $\sh_A$ is smooth projective algebraic variety. We study its geometric properties: the Lie algebra of the vector fields, the coordinate ring, the cohomologies of the line bundles. We also prove, that the fusion products can be realized as the dual spaces of the sections of these bundles.
This paper generalizes the results of the paper \cite{mi3} to the case of the general $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ Schubert varieties. We study the homomorphisms between different Schubert varieties, describe their geometry and the group of the line bundles. We also derive some consequences, concerning the infinite-dimensional generalized affine grassmanians.
Using the fusion product of the representations of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ we construct a set of the integrable highest weight $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$-modules $L^D$, depending on the vector $D\in\mathbb{N}^{k+1}$. In a special cases of $D$ our modules are isomorphic to the irreducible $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$-modules $L_{i,k}$. We construct a basis of the $L^D$ and study the decomposition of $L^D$ on the irreducible components. We also write a formulas for the characters of $L^D$.
Let $π_1,...,π_n$ be an irreducible finite-dimensional $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-modules. Using the theory of the representations of the current algebras, we introduce a several ways to construct a $q$-grading on $π_1\otimes...\otimesπ_n$. We study the corresponding graded modules and prove, that they are essentially the same.
