The denominators of normalized \(R\)-matrices of types \(A_{2n-1}^{(2)}\), \(A_{2n}^{(2)}\), \(B_{n}^{(1)}\) and \(D_{n+1}^{(2)}\) (Q899105)

The denominators of normalized \(R\)-matrices play an important role in studying finite-dimensional integrable representations and have been investigated by a number of authors. In this paper under review, by following the ideas from [\textit{T. Akasaka} and \textit{M. Kashiwara}, Publ. Res. Inst. Math. Sci. 33, No. 5, 839--867 (1997; Zbl 0915.17011)] and [\textit{S.-J. Kang} et al., Duke Math. J. 164, No. 8, 1549--1602 (2015; Zbl 1323.81046)], the author provides a general framework for calculating the denominators of all normalized \(R\)-matrices of types \(A^{(2)}_{2n-1}(n\geq 3)\), \(A^{(2)}_{2n}(n\geq 2)\), \(B^{(1)}_{n}(n\geq 3)\) and \(D^{(2)}_{n+1}(n\geq 2)\). Then the denominator formulas are explicitly given. It is concluded that the normalized \(R\)-matrices of types \(A^{(2)}_{2n-1}(n\geq 3)\), \(A^{(2)}_{2n}(n\geq 2)\), \(B^{(1)}_{n}(n\geq 3)\) and \(D^{(2)}_{3}\) have only simple poles, and under some additional conditions, those of types \(D^{(2)}_{n+1}(n\geq 3)\) have double poles.
