A GL$(n)$ quantum integrable system generalizing the asymmetric five vertex spin chain is shown to encode the ring relations of the equivariant quantum cohomology and equivariant quantum K-theory ring of flag varieties. We also show that…
We consider the joint system of equivariant quantum differential equations (qDE) and qKZ difference equations for the Grassmannian $G(k,n)$, which parametrizes $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mathbb{C}^n$. First, we establish a connection…
We utilize physics arguments, and the nonabelian/abelian correspondence, to relate the Givental and Lee's quantum K theory ring of Grassmannians to a twisted variant of the quantum cohomology ring. Furthermore, the quantum K pairing is…
Let G denote a complex, semisimple, simply-connected group. We identify the equivariant quantum differential equation for the cotangent bundle to the flag variety of G with the affine Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov connection of Cherednik and…
We describe the monodromy of the equivariant quantum differential equation of the cotangent bundle of a Grassmannian in terms of the equivariant K-theory algebra of the cotangent bundle. This description is based on the hypergeometric…
We show that (equivariant) K-theoretic 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of genus zero on a Grassmann variety are equal to triple intersections computed in the ordinary (equivariant) K-theory of a two-step flag manifold, thus generalizing an…
We study the virtual Euler characteristics of sheaves over Quot schemes of curves, establishing that these invariants fit into a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) valued in $\mathbb{Z}[[q]]$. We show that the three-pointed genus-zero…
We give a purely geometric explanation of the coincidence between the Coulomb Branch equations for the 3D GLSM describing the quantum $K$-theory of a flag variety, and the Bethe Ansatz equations of the 5-vertex lattice model. In doing so,…
We prove a `Whitney' presentation, and a `Coulomb branch' presentation, for the torus equivariant quantum K theory of the Grassmann manifold $\mathrm{Gr}(k;n)$, inspired from physics, and stated in an earlier paper. The first presentation…
We describe a construction of Gromov-Witten invariants for flag varieties and use it to give a presentation for the quantum cohomology ring, by extending the ideas used by Bertram in the case of Grassmannians. This provides a proof for the…
The quantum differential equations can be regarded as examples of equations with certain universal properties which are of wider interest beyond quantum cohomology itself. We present this point of view as part of a framework which…
Quantum invariants of the orbit dependent pairing problem are identified in the limit where the orbits become degenerate. These quantum invariants are simultaneously diagonalized with the help of the Bethe ansatz method and a symmetry in…
We formulate $Q$-systems for the closed XXZ, open XXX and open quantum-group-invariant XXZ quantum spin chains. Polynomial solutions of these $Q$-systems can be found efficiently, which in turn lead directly to the admissible solutions of…
We introduce twisted permutation-equivariant GW-invariants, and compute them in terms of untwisted ones. The computation is based on Grothendieck-like RR formula corresponding to Adams' operations from K-theory to itself, and the result can…
In the example of complex grassmannians, we demonstrate various techniques available for computing genus-0 K-theoretic GW-invariants of flag manifolds and more general quiver varieties. In particular, we address explicit reconstruction of…
There are two intriguing statements regarding the quantum cohomology of partial flag varieties. The first one relates quantum cohomology to the affinisation of Lie algebras and the homology of the affine Grassmannian, the second one…
The affine Grassmannian associated to a reductive group $\mathbf{G}$ is an affine analogue of the usual flag varieties. It is a rich source of Poisson varieties and their symplectic resolutions. These spaces are examples of conical…
In this paper we discuss physical derivations of the quantum K theory rings of symplectic Grassmannians. We compare to standard presentations in terms of Schubert cycles, but most of our work revolves around a proposed description in terms…
The integrable XXZ alternating spin chain with generic non-diagonal boundary terms specified by the most general non-diagonal K-matrices is studied via the off-diagonal Bethe Ansatz method. Based on the intrinsic properties of the fused…
In this paper we study the quantum sheaf cohomology of Grassmannians with deformations of the tangent bundle. Quantum sheaf cohomology is a (0,2) deformation of the ordinary quantum cohomology ring, realized as the OPE ring in A/2-twisted…
