Shuffle algebras, lattice paths and quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}$

Alexandr Garbali, Andrei Neguţ

Abstract

We describe and compute various families of commuting elements of the matrix shuffle algebra of type $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}$, which is expected to be isomorphic to quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}$. Our formulas are given in terms of partial traces of products of $R$-matrices of the quantum affine algebra $U_t(\dot{\mathfrak{gl}}_{n|m})$, and have a lattice path interpretation. Our calculations are based on the machinery of the quantum toroidal algebras and a new anti-homomorphism between matrix shuffle algebras.

Abstract

We describe and compute various families of commuting elements of the matrix shuffle algebra of type , which is expected to be isomorphic to quantum toroidal . Our formulas are given in terms of partial traces of products of -matrices of the quantum affine algebra , and have a lattice path interpretation. Our calculations are based on the machinery of the quantum toroidal algebras and a new anti-homomorphism between matrix shuffle algebras.

Key Result

Theorem 1

For any $n,m \geqslant 0$, the generating function $Z(v)$ can be expressed as: where $y_i:=t^{-\epsilon_i/2}\epsilon_i u_i$, $u_{n+m+1}:=q u_1$, $\epsilon_i=(-1)^{\delta_{i>n}}$, and $S_k^{(1)}\ldots S_k^{(n+m)} \in \emph{End}(V^{\otimes k})(z_1\ldots z_k)$ is a collection of matrix-valued rational functions which can be computed recursively: where $[a,b]=a*b-b*a$.
