Abstract: Let W be the complex reflection group G(e,1,n). In the author's previous paper, Hall-Littlewood functions associated to W were introduced. In the special case where W is a Weyl group of type B_n, they are closely related to Green polynomials of finite classical groups. In this paper, we introduce a two variables version of the above Hall-Littlewood functions, as a generalization of Macdonald functions associated to symmetric groups. A generalization of Macdonald operators is also constructed, and we characterize such functions by making use of Macdonald operators, assuming a certain conjecture.

Review text

Let \(W\) be the complex reflection group \(\sigma_n\ltimes(\mathbb{Z}/e\mathbb{Z})^n\). In the author's previous paper [J. Algebra 245, No. 2, 650-694 (2001; Zbl 0997.20044)], Hall-Littlewood functions associated to \(W\) were introduced. In the special case where \(W\) is a Weyl group of type \(B_n\), they are closely related to Green polynomials of finite classical groups. In this paper, the author introduces a two variables version of the Hall-Littlewood functions, as generalization of Macdonald functions associated to symmetric groups. A generalization of Macdonald operators is also constructed, and he charactizes such functions by making use of Macdonald operators, assuming a certain conjecture. Theorem 3.6. Suppose that Conjecture A holds. Then the Macdonald functions \(P_\Lambda^\pm\in\Sigma_F\) are characterized by the following two properties: \[ P_\Lambda^\pm=m_\alpha+\sum_{\beta<\alpha} w_{\alpha, \beta}^\pm m_\beta,\qquad E^\pm P_\Lambda^\pm=\sum_{\beta\sim\alpha} h_{\alpha,\beta}^\pm P_{\Lambda(\beta)}^\pm. \] In particular, \(P_\Lambda^\pm\) are determined independently from the choice of the total order \(<\).
