We consider the affine vertex algebra at the critical level associated with the centralizer of a nilpotent element in the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_N$. Due to a recent result of Arakawa and Premet, the center of this vertex algebra is an…
We give an explicit expression for the central elements of affine Hecke algebras of type A in the Coxeter presentation, in terms of (parabolic) affine Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. Our approach is based on a version of quantum affine…

Generalized Baxter's relations on the transfer-matrices (also known as Baxter's TQ relations) are constructed and proved for an arbitrary untwisted quantum affine algebra. Moreover, we interpret them as relations in the Grothendieck ring of…
We describe a generalization of Drinfeld's description of the center of a quantum group to the case of quantum affine algebras. We use the obtained central elements to construct the affine analogue of Macdonald's difference operators.
In a recent work by two of us the argument shift method was extended from the symmetric algebra ${\rm S}({\mathfrak g})$ of the general linear Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ to the universal enveloping algebra ${\rm U}({\mathfrak g})$. We show…
Let us consider a specialization of an untwisted quantum affine algebra of type $ADE$ at a nonzero complex number, which may or may not be a root of unity. The Grothendieck ring of its finite dimensional representations has two bases,…
