Factorised solutions of Temperley-Lieb \(q\)KZ equations on a segment (Q646468): Difference between revisions

In this paper, the authors study factorized solutions to the \(q\)-deformed Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (qKZ) equations in the path representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebras. The solution of the qKZ equation is a function in \(N\) variables \(x_1, x_2, \dots, x_N\) taking values in the path representation, and the components of this vector-valued function are depicted by a single scalar function, which is called the base function. The authors derive factorized expressions for the solutions of the qKZ equations using Baxeterized Demazurre-Lusztig operators. In particular, they provide factorized expressions for the components of the solutions of the qKZ equations for the Temperly-Lieb algebra (Type A) and the one-boundary Temperly-Lieb algebra (Type B) with arbitrary parameters. To determine the base function, they further reduce the qKZ equation to a set of truncation relations, which also appear in a factorized form. They also study some particular polynomial solutions and formulate positivity conjectures in the homogeneous limit. The paper starts with a nice review of some known results, and the main result is stated in Section 4.
