On the computation of the canonical basis for irreducible highest weight $U_q (\mathfrak{gl}_{\infty})$-module

Nicolas Jacon, Abel Lacabanne

TL;DR

This work advances the computation of canonical bases in higher-level Fock spaces for $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_{\infty})$ by extending the Leclerc--Miyachi framework to arbitrary levels using symbol combinatorics. It introduces a column-removal principle and asymptotic factorization results that reduce complex basis elements to simpler blocks, and proves monomiality in several new regimes, including the $l=3$ case and various ordered/structured symbols. The developed techniques yield explicit, closed formulas for canonical basis elements and have direct implications for Calogero--Moser cellular characters and Ariki--Koike algebra decomposition matrices, linking representation theory to combinatorial and cellular structures. Overall, the paper broadens the practical computability of canonical bases in infinite-rank quantum groups and enriches the interplay between combinatorics, Calogero--Moser theory, and Hecke-algebra-type phenomena.

Abstract

We study canonical basis elements in higher-level Fock spaces associated with the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_\infty)$, which are conjecturally related to Calogero-Moser theory for complex reflection groups. We generalize the Leclerc-Miyachi formula to arbitrary levels by introducing new explicit constructions based on symbols, including a column removal theorem and closed formulas in several cases. These results provide explicit descriptions of canonical basis elements with applications to Calogero-Moser cellular characters and to the decomposition matrices of Ariki-Koike algebras.

Proposition 2.4

Let $S=(\beta^1,\ldots,\beta^l)$ be a symbol. Let $i\in \mathbb{Z}$ and let $a\in \mathbb{N}$. Then we have: where the sum is taken over all the symbol $S'=(\gamma^1,\ldots,\gamma^l)$ obtained from $S$ by replacing exactly $a$ entries $i+1$ with $i$, say in rows $j_1, \ldots, j_a$, and where Similarly, we have: where the sum is taken over all the symbol $S'=(\gamma^1,\ldots,\gamma^l)$ obtained
