In this paper we present a formula for Macdonald's polynomials for the root system A(n-1) which arises from the representation theory of quantum sl(n). This formula expresses Macdonald's polynomials via (weighted) traces of intertwining…
Quantum analogues of the homogeneous spaces $\GL(n)/\SO(n)$ and $\GL(2n)/\Sp(2n)$ are introduced. The zonal spherical functions on these quantum homogeneous spaces are represented by Macdonald's symmetric polynomials…
We present a perturbative construction of two kinds of eigenfunctions of the commuting family of difference operators defining the elliptic Ruijsenaars system. The first kind corresponds to elliptic deformations of the Macdonald…
The ring of symmetric functions $\Lambda$, with natural basis given by the Schur functions, arise in many different areas of mathematics. For example, as the cohomology ring of the grassmanian, and as the representation ring of the…
Macdonald polynomials are an important class of symmetric functions, with connections to many different fields. Etingof and Kirillov showed an intimate connection between these functions and representation theory: they proved that Macdonald…
Integral identities for Macdonald polynomials play an important role in modern mathematics and mathematical physics. Especially interesting are the Cherednik-Macdonald-Mehta (CMM) identities, with profound connections to Double Affine Hecke…
We introduce Macdonald polynomials indexed by $n$-tuples of partitions and characterized by certain orthogonality and triangularity relations. We prove that they can be explicitly given as products of ordinary Macdonald polynomials…
In this work we study the relationship between several combinatorial formulas for type $A$ spherical Whittaker functions. These are spherical functions on $p$-adic groups, which arise in the theory of automorphic forms. They depend on a…
We construct explicitly non-polynomial eigenfunctions of the difference operators by Macdonald in case $t=q^k$, $k\in{\mathbb Z}$. This leads to a new, more elementary proof of several Macdonald conjectures, first proved by Cherednik. We…
We derive a matrix product formula for symmetric Macdonald polynomials. Our results are obtained by constructing polynomial solutions of deformed Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov equations, which arise by considering representations of the…
