This paper explores a quantum deformation of the classical identity Pf(A)^2 = det(A) for 2n by 2n skew-symmetric matrices A, which classically relates the square of the Pfaffian to the determinant. In the quantum setting, we study matrices…

We present several identities involving quasi-minors of noncommutative generic matrices. These identities are specialized to quantum matrices, yielding q-analogues of various classical determinantal formulas.

Pfaffians of matrices with entries z[i,j]/(x\_i+x\_j), or determinants of matrices with entries z[i,j]/(x\_i-x\_j), where the antisymmetrical indeterminates z[i,j] satisfy the Pl\"ucker relations, can be identified with a trace in an…

We study the quantum symmetric spaces for quantum general linear groups modulo symplectic groups. We first determine the structure of the quotient quantum group and completely determine the quantum invariants. We then derive the…

The multiparameter quantum Pfaffian of the $(p, \lambda)$-quantum group is introduced and studied together with the quantum determinant, and an identity relating the two invariants is given. Generalization to the multiparameter…

$q$-Yangians can be viewed both as quantum deformations of the loop algebras of upper triangular Lie algebras and deformations of the Yangian algebras. In this paper, we study the quantum affine algebra as a product of two copies of the…

This paper continues an earlier research of the authors on universal quadratic identities (QIs) on minors of quantum matrices. We demonstrate situations when the universal QIs are provided, in a sense, by the ones of four special types…

We study equivariant de Rham discriminants associated to arithmetic varieties which support a tame action by a finite group; we form these discriminants by endowing the de Rham cohomology with pairings arising from duality theory. Such…

The notion of a quasideterminant and a quasiminor of a matrix A=(a_{ij}) with not necessarily commuting entries was introduced recently by I.Gelfand and the second author. The ordinary determinant of a matrix with commuting entries can be…

A variation of Zeilberger's holonomic ansatz for symbolic determinant evaluations is proposed which is tailored to deal with Pfaffians. The method is also applicable to determinants of skew-symmetric matrices, for which the original…

Let $(Q,\sigma)$ be a symmetric quiver, where $Q=(Q_0,Q_1)$ is a finite quiver without oriented cycles and $\sigma$ is a contravariant involution on $Q_0\sqcup Q_1$. The involution allows us to define a nondegenerate bilinear form $<,>$ on…

Orthogonal or symplectic Yangians are defined by the Yang-Baxter $RLL$ relation involving the fundamental $R$ matrix with $so(n)$ or $sp(2m)$ symmetry. Simple $L$ operators with linear or quadratic dependence on the spectral parameter exist…

Orthogonal and symplectic matrix integrals are investigated. It is shown that the matrix integrals can be considered as a $\tau$-function of the coupled KP hierarchy, whose solution can be expressed in terms of pfaffians.

This is my PhD thesis supervised by Professor Jerzy Weyman. A symmetric quiver $(Q,\sigma)$ is a finite quiver without oriented cycles $Q=(Q_0,Q_1)$ equipped with a contravariant involution $\sigma$ on $Q_0\sqcup Q_1$. The involution allows…

The concept of the quantum Pfaffian is rigorously examined and refurbished using the new method of quantum exterior algebras. We derive a complete family of Pl\"ucker relations for the quantum linear transformations, and then use them to…

For families of orthogonal and symplectic types quantum matrix (QM-) algebras, we derive corresponding versions of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem. For a wider family of Birman-Murakami-Wenzl type QM-algebras, we investigate a structure of its…

We present two new proofs of the the important q-commuting property holding among certain pairs of quantum minors of an n x n q-generic matrix. The first uses elementary quasideterminantal arithmetic; the second involves paths in an…

Let $S=\mathbb{C}[x_{ij}]$ be a polynomial ring of $m\times n$ generic variables (resp. a polynomial ring of $(2n+1) \times (2n+1)$ skew-symmetric variables) over $\mathbb{C}$ and let $I$ (resp. Pf) be the determinantal ideal of maximal…

Let $(G,K)$ be one of the following classical irreducible Hermitian symmetric pairs of noncompact type: $(SU(p,q), S(U(p) \times U(q))),(Sp(n,R), U(n))$, or $(SO*(2n), U(n))$. Let $G_{\mathbb C}$ and $K_{\mathbb C}$ be complexifications of…

We describe a method, based on the theory of Macdonald-Koornwinder polynomials, for proving bounded Littlewood identities. Our approach provides an alternative to Macdonald's partial fraction technique and results in the first examples of…
