Point Processes and the Infinite Symmetric Group. Part II: Higher Correlation Functions
Abstract
We continue the study of the correlation functions for the point stochastic processes introduced in Part I (G.Olshanski, math.RT/9804086). We find an integral representation of all the correlation functions and their explicit expression in terms of multivariate hypergeometric functions. Then we define a modification (``lifting'') of the processes which results in a substantial simplification of the structure of the correlation functions. It turns out that the ``lifted'' correlation functions are given by a determinantal formula involving a kernel. The latter has the form (A(x)B(y)-B(x)A(y))/(x-y), where A and B are certain Whittaker functions. Such a form for correlation functions is well known in the random matrix theory and mathematical physics. Finally, we get some asymptotic formulas for the correlation functions which are employed in Part III (A.Borodin and G.Olshanski, math.RT/9804088).
