A natural first step in the classification of all `physical' modular invariant partition functions $\sum N_{LR}\,\c_L\,\C_R$ lies in understanding the commutant of the modular matrices $S$ and $T$. We begin this paper extending the work of…
We introuduce a unified method which can be applied to any WZW model at arbitrary level to search systematically for modular invariant physical partition functions. Our method is based essentially on modding out a known theory on group…
In his famous 2007 paper on three dimensional quantum gravity, Witten defined candidates for the partition functions $$Z_k(q)=\sum_{n=-k}^{\infty}w_k(n)q^n$$ of potential extremal CFTs with central charges of the form $c=24k$. Although such…
We compute the partition function of the WZW model with target a compact Lie group $G$ by adapting a method used by Choi and Takhtajan to compute the heat kernel of the group manifold. The basic idea is to compute the partition function of…
The spontaneous magnetization of a two-dimensional lattice model can be expressed in terms of the partition function $W$ of a system with fixed boundary spins and an extra weight dependent on the value of a particular central spin. For the…
We introduce and study several combinatorial properties of a class of symmetric polynomials from the point of view of integrable vertex models in finite lattice. We introduce the $L$-operator related with the $U_q(sl_2)$ $R$-matrix, and…
We review and present new studies on the relation between the partition functions of integrable lattice models and symmetric polynomials, and its combinatorial representation theory based on the correspondence, including our work. In…
We examine "partition zeta functions" analogous to the Riemann zeta function but summed over subsets of integer partitions. We prove an explicit formula for a family of partition zeta functions already shown to have nice properties -- those…
We interpret values of spherical Whittaker functions on metaplectic covers of the general linear group over a nonarchimedean local field as partition functions of two different solvable lattice models. We prove the equality of these two…
We propose a spectrum for a class of gauged non-compact G/Ad(H) WZNW models, including spectrally flowed images of highest, lowest, and mixed extremal weight modules. These are combined into blocks whose characters, due to the Lorentzian…
In this short note, inspired by much recent activity centered around attempts to formulate various correspondences between the classification of affine SU(k) WZW modular-invariant partition functions and that of discrete finite subgroups of…
We consider partition functions on the $N\times N$ square lattice with the local Boltzmann weights given by the $R$-matrix of the $U_{t}(\widehat{sl}(n+1|m))$ quantum algebra. We identify boundary states such that the square lattice can be…
The conformal spectra of the critical dilute A-D-E lattice models are studied numerically. The results strongly indicate that, in branches 1 and 2, these models provide realizations of the complete A-D-E classification of unitary minimal…
In this paper we compute new values of Iwahori Whittaker functions on $n$-fold metaplectic covers $\widetilde{G}$ of $\mathbf{G}(F)$ with $\mathbf{G}$ a split reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$. For every Iwahori…
We show that spherical Whittaker functions on an $n$-fold cover of the general linear group arise naturally from the quantum Fock space representation of $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}(n))$ introduced by Kashiwara, Miwa and Stern (KMS). We…
Extending Sellers' result, Das et al. recently proved some congruence results for generalized overcubic partitions using theta functions and posed some related conjectures. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial proof of a result in…
We study the weighted partition function for lozenge tilings, with weights given by multivariate rational functions originally defined by Morales, Pak and Panova (2019) in the context of the factorial Schur functions. We prove that this…
We study the subdivision properties of certain lattice gauge theories based on the groups $Z_{2}$ and $Z_{3}$, in four dimensions. The Boltzmann weights are shown to be invariant under all type $(k,l)$ subdivision moves, at certain discrete…
Recently, there has been observed an interesting correspondence between supersymmetric quiver gauge theories with four supercharges and integrable lattice models of statistical mechanics such that the two-dimensional spin lattice is the…
Recently, Debruyne and Tenenbaum proved asymptotic formulas for the number of partitions with parts in $\mathcal{L}\subset\mathbb{N}$ ($\gcd(\mathcal{L})=1$) and good analytic properties of the corresponding zeta function, generalizing work…
