The q-character is a strong tool to study finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras. However, the explicit formula of the q-character of a given representation has not been known so far. Frenkel and Mukhin proposed the…

We raise the question of whether (a slightly generalized notion of) $qq$-characters can be constructed purely representation-theoretically. In the main example of the quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_1$ algebra, geometric engineering of…

We consider various specializations of the non-twisted quantum affine algebras at roots of unity. We define and study the q-characters of their finite-dimensional representations.

The Heisenberg algebra is first deformed with the set of parameters ${q, l, \lambda}$ to generate a new family of generalized coherent states. In this framework, the matrix elements of relevant operators are exactly computed. A proof on…

We study finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras using q-characters. We prove the conjectures from math.QA/9810055 and derive some of their corollaries. In particular, we prove that the tensor product of fundamental…

The category of finite dimensional (type 1) representations of a quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{{\mathfrak g}})$ is not semisimple. However, as any abelian category with finite-length objects, it admits a unique decomposition into a…

The Jacobi-Trudi formula implies some interesting quadratic identities for characters of representations of $gl_n$. Earlier work of Kirillov and Reshetikhin proposed a generalization of these identities to the other classical Lie algebras,…

Let $U_q(\hat{\cal G})$ be a quantized affine Lie algebra. It is proven that the universal R-matrix $R$ of $U_q(\hat{\cal G})$ satisfies the celebrated conjugation relation $R^\dagger=TR$ with $T$ the usual twist map. As applications, braid…

Let D be a simply laced Dynkin diagram of rank r whose affinization has the shape of a star (i.e., D4,E6,E7,E8). To such a diagram one can attach a group G whose generators correspond to the legs of the affinization, have orders equal to…
