Abstract: The affine Yangian of mathfrakgl1 has recently appeared simultaneously in the work of Maulik-Okounkov and Schiffmann-Vasserot in connection with the Alday-Gaiotto-Tachikawa conjecture. While the former presentation is purely geometric, the latter algebraic presentation is quite involved. In this article, we provide a simple loop realization of this algebra which can be viewed as an "additivization" of the quantum toroidal algebra of mathfrakgl1 in the same way as the Yangian Yh(mathfrakg) is an "additivization" of the quantum loop algebra Uq(Lmathfrakg) for a simple Lie algebra mathfrakg. We also explain the similarity between the representation theories of the affine Yangian and the quantum toroidal algebras of mathfrakgl1 by generalizing the milestone result of Gautam and Toledano Laredo to the current settings.
