چکیده

We study pfaffian analogues of immanants, which we call pfaffinants. Our main object is the TL-pfaffinants which are analogues of Rhoades and Skandera’s TL-immanants. We show that TL-pfaffinants are positive when applied to planar networks and explain how to decompose products of complementary pfaffians in terms of TL-pfaffinants. We conjecture in addition that TL-pfaffinants have positivity properties related to Schur Q-functions.

FACTORISED SOLUTIONS OF TEMPERLEY-LIEB qKZ EQUATIONS ON A SEGMENT

We study the q-deformed Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation in path representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebras. We consider two types of open boundary conditions, and in both cases we derive factorised expressions for the solutions of the qKZ equation in terms of Baxterised Demazurre-Lusztig operators. These expressions are alternative to known integral solutions for tensor product representati...

Diagonal Temperley-lieb Invariants and Harmonics

In the context of the ring Q[x,y], of polynomials in 2n variables x = x1, . . . , xn and y = y1, . . . , yn, we introduce the notion of diagonally quasisymmetric polynomials. These, also called diagonal Temperley-Lieb invariants, make possible the further introduction of the space of diagonal Temperley-Lieb harmonics and diagonal Temperley-Lieb coinvariant space. We present new results and conj...

Schur positivity and the q-log-convexity of the Narayana polynomials

We prove two recent conjectures of Liu and Wang by establishing the strong q-log-convexity of the Narayana polynomials, and showing that the Narayana transformation preserves log-convexity. We begin with a formula of Brändén expressing the q-Narayana numbers as a specialization of Schur functions and, by deriving several symmetric function identities, we obtain the necessary Schur-positivity re...

Temperley–Lieb Words as Valence-Bond Ground States

Based on the Temperley–Lieb algebra we define a class of one-dimensional Hamiltonians with nearest and next-nearest neighbour interactions. Using the regular representation we give ground states of this model as words of the algebra. Two point correlation functions can be computed employing the Temperley–Lieb relations. Choosing a spin2 representation of the algebra we obtain a generalization o...

Temperley - Lieb Quantum Spin Chains

We solve the spectrum of the closed Temperley-Lieb quantum spin chains using the coordinate Bethe ansatz. These models are invariant under the quantum group U q [sl(2)].
