Quasi-Linear Algebras and Integrability (the Heisenberg Picture)

We study Poisson and operator algebras with the ''quasi-linear property'' from the Heisenberg picture point of view. This means that there exists a set of one-parameter groups yielding an explicit expression of dynamical variables (operators) as functions of ''time'' $t$. We show that many algebras with nonlinear commutation relations such as the Askey-Wilson, $q$-Dolan-Grady and others satisfy this property. This provides one more (explicit Heisenberg evolution) interpretation of the corresponding integrable systems.

Generalized Bochner theorem: characterization of the Askey-Wilson polynomials

Assume that there is a set of monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ satisfying the second-order difference equation $$ A(s) P_n(z(s+1)) + B(s) P_n(z(s)) + C(s) P_n(z(s-1)) = λ_n P_n(z(s)), n=0,1,2,..., N$$ where $z(s), A(s), B(s), C(s)$ are some functions of the discrete argument $s$ and $N$ may be either finite or infinite. The irreducibility condition $A(s-1)C(s) \ne 0$ is assumed for all admissible values of $s$. In the finite case we assume that there are $N+1$ distinct grid points $z(s), \: s=0,1,..., N$ such that $z(i) \ne z(j), \: i \ne j$. If $N=\infty$ we assume that the grid $z(s)$ has infinitely many different values for different values of $s$. In both finite and infinite cases we assume also that the problem is non-degenerate, i.e. $λ_n \ne λ_m, n \ne m$. Then we show that necessarily: (i) the grid $z(s)$ is at most quadratic or q-quadratic in $s$; (ii) corresponding polynomials $P_n(z)$ are at most the Askey-Wilson polynomials corresponding to the grid $z(s)$. This result can be considered as generalizing of the Bochner theorem (characterizing the ordinary classical polynomials) to generic case of arbitrary difference operator on arbitrary grids.

Elliptic Biorthogonal Polynomials Connected with Hermite's Continued Fraction

We study a family of the Laurent biorthogonal polynomials arising from the Hermite continued fraction for a ratio of two complete elliptic integrals. Recurrence coefficients, explicit expression and the weight function for these polynomials are obtained. We construct also a new explicit example of the Szegö polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle. Relations with associated Legendre polynomials are considered.

A Super-Integrable Discretization of the Calogero Model

A time-discretization that preserves the super-integrability of the Calogero model is obtained by application of the integrable time-discretization of the harmonic oscillator to the projection method for the Calogero model with continuous time. In particular, the difference equations of motion, which provide an explicit scheme for time-integration, are explicitly presented for the two-body case. Numerical results exhibit that the scheme conserves all the$(=3)$ conserved quantities of the (two-body) Calogero model with a precision of the machine epsilon times the number of iterations.

Supersymmetry in the Non-Commutative Plane

The supersymmetric extension of a model introduced by Lukierski, Stichel and Zakrewski in the non-commutative plane is studied. The Noether charges associated to the symmetries are determined. Their Poisson algebra is investigated in the Ostrogradski--Dirac formalism for constrained Hamiltonian systems. It is shown to provide a supersymmetric generalization of the Galilei algebra with a two-dimensional central extension.

The Quantum Dynamics of the Compactified Trigonometric Ruijsenaars-Schneider Model

We quantize a compactified version of the trigonometric Ruijse\-naars-Schneider particle model with a phase space that is symplectomorphic to the complex projective space CP^N. The quantum Hamiltonian is realized as a discrete difference operator acting in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space of complex functions with support in a finite uniform lattice over a convex polytope (viz., a restricted Weyl alcove with walls having a thickness proportional to the coupling parameter). We solve the corresponding finite-dimensional (bispectral) eigenvalue problem in terms of discretized Macdonald polynomials with q (and t) on the unit circle. The normalization of the wave functions is determined using a terminating version of a recent summation formula due to Aomoto, Ito and Macdonald. The resulting eigenfunction transform determines a discrete Fourier-type involution in the Hilbert space of lattice functions. This is in correspondence with Ruijsenaars' observation that---at the classical level---the action-angle transformation defines an (anti)symplectic involution of CP^N. From the perspective of algebraic combinatorics, our results give rise to a novel system of bilinear summation identities for the Macdonald symmetric functions.

Rodrigues formulas for the Macdonald polynomials

We present formulas of Rodrigues type giving the Macdonald polynomials for arbitrary partitions through the repeated application of creation operators on the constant 1. Three expressions for the creation operators are derived one from the other. When the last of these expressions is used, the associated Rodrigues formula readily implies the integrality of the (q,t)-Kostka coefficients. The proofs given in this paper rely on the connection between affine Hecke algebras and Macdonald polynomials

A short proof of the integrality of the Macdonald (q,t)-Kostka coefficients

The Macdonald polynomials can be obtained by acting on the constant 1 with creation operators. Three different expressions for these operators are derived, one from the other, in a rather succint way. When the last of these expressions is used, the formalism is seen to imply straightforwardly the integrality of the (q,t)-Kostka coefficients, that is of the expansion coefficients for the Macdonald functions in terms of Schur functions.

Exact operator solution of the Calogero-Sutherland model

The wave functions of the Calogero-Sutherland model are known to be expressible in terms of Jack polynomials. A formula which allows to obtain the wave functions of the excited states by acting with a string of creation operators on the wave function of the ground state is presented and derived. The creation operators that enter in this formula of Rodrigues-type for the Jack polynomials involve Dunkl operators.

A model for the continuous q-ultraspherical polynomials

We provide an algebraic interpretation for two classes of continuous $q$-polynomials. Rogers' continuous $q$-Hermite polynomials and continuous $q$-ultraspherical polynomials are shown to realize, respectively, bases for representation spaces of the $q$-Heisenberg algebra and a $q$-deformation of the Euclidean algebra in these dimensions. A generating function for the continuous $q$-Hermite polynomials and a $q$-analog of the Fourier-Gegenbauer expansion are naturally obtained from these models.

More on the q-oscillator algebra and q-orthogonal polynomials

Properties of certain $q$-orthogonal polynomials are connected to the $q$-oscillator algebra. The Wall and $q$-Laguerre polynomials are shown to arise as matrix elements of $q$-exponentials of the generators in a representation of this algebra. A realization is presented where the continuous $q$-Hermite polynomials form a basis of the representation space. Various identities are interpreted within this model. In particular, the connection formula between the continuous big $q$-Hermite polynomials and the continuous $q$-Hermite polynomials is thus obtained, and two generating functions for these last polynomials are algebraically derived.

A Quantum Analogue of the ${\cal Z}$ Algebra

We define a natural quantum analogue for the ${\cal Z}$ algebra, and which we refer to as the ${\cal Z}_q$ algebra, by modding out the Heisenberg algebra from the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl(2)})$ with level $k$. We discuss the representation theory of this ${\cal Z}_q$ algebra. In particular, we exhibit its reduction to a group algebra, and to a tensor product of a group algebra with a quantum Clifford algebra when $k=1$, and $k=2$, and thus, we recover the explicit constructions of $\uq$-standard modules as achieved by Frenkel-Jing and Bernard, respectively. Moreover, for arbitrary nonzero level $k$, we show that the explicit basis for the simplest ${\cal Z}$-generalized Verma module as constructed by Lepowsky and primc is also a basis for its corresponding ${\cal Z}_q$-module, i.e., it is invariant under the q-deformation for generic q. We expect this ${\cal Z}_q$ algebra (associated with $\uq$ at level $k$), to play the role of a dynamical symmetry in the off-critical $ Z_k$ statistical models.

Free-Field Representation of Group Element for Simple Quantum Group

A representation of the group element (also known as ``universal ${\cal T}$-matrix'') which satisfies $Δ(g) = g\otimes g$, is given in the form $$ g = \left(\prod_{s=1}^{d_B}\phantom.^>\ {\cal E}_{1/q_{i(s)}}(χ^{(s)}T_{-i(s)})\right) q^{2\vecϕ\vec H} \left(\prod_{s=1}^{d_B}\phantom.^<\ {\cal E}_{q_{i(s)}}(ψ^{(s)} T_{+i(s)})\right)$$ where $d_B = \frac{1}{2}(d_G - r_G)$, $q_i = q^{|| \vecα_i||^2/2}$ and $H_i = 2\vec H\vecα_i/||\vecα_i||^2$ and $T_{\pm i}$ are the generators of quantum group associated respectively with Cartan algebra and the {\it simple} roots. The ``free fields'' $χ,\ \vecϕ,\ ψ$ form a Heisenberg-like algebra: $ψ^{(s)}ψ^{(s')} = q^{-\vecα_{i(s)} \vecα_{i(s')}} ψ^{(s')}ψ^{(s)}, & χ^{(s)}χ^{(s')} = q^{-\vecα_{i(s)}\vecα_{i(s')}} χ^{(s')}χ^{(s)}& {\rm for} \ s 0}^{d_B}{\cal E}_{q_{\vecα}}\left(-(q_{\vecα}- q_{\vecα}^{-1})T_{\vecα}\otimes T_{-\vecα}\right).$$

On a Bosonic-Parafermionic Realization of $U_q(\widehat{sl(2)})$

We realize the $U_q(\widehat{sl(2)})$ current algebra at arbitrary level in terms of one deformed free bosonic field and a pair of deformed parafermionic fields. It is shown that the operator product expansions of these parafermionic fields involve an infinite number of simple poles and simple zeros, which then condensate to form a branch cut in the classical limit $q\rightarrow 1$. Our realization coincides with those of Frenkel-Jing and Bernard when the level $k$ takes the values 1 and 2 respectively.
