Quantum \(K\)-theory Chevalley formulas in the parabolic case (Q6123221)

\textit{Y. P. Lee} [Duke Math. J. 121, No. 3, 389--424 (2004; Zbl 1051.14064)] defined the small quantum \(K\)-theory of a smooth projective variety \(X\). This is a deformation of the ordinary \(K\)-ring of \(X\), analogous to the relation between quantum cohomology and ordinary cohomology. The deformed product is defined in terms of certain generalizations of Gromov-Witten invariants, called quantum \(K\)-invariants of Gromov-Witten type. The authors derive cancellation-free Chevalley-type multiplication formulas for the \(T\)-equivariant quantum \(K\)-theory ring of Grassmannians of type \(A\) and \(C\), and also those of two-step flag manifolds of type \(A\). They are obtained based on the uniform Chevalley formula in the \(T\)-equivariant quantum \(K\)-theory ring of arbitrary flag manifolds \(G/B\), in terms of the quantum alcove model.
