Abstract: We give a generators and relations presentation of the HOMFLYPT skein algebra H of the torus T2, and we give an explicit description of the module corresponding to the solid torus. Using this presentation, we show that H is isomorphic to the t=q specialization of the elliptic Hall algebra of Burban and Schiffmann [BS12]. As an application, for an iterated cable K of the unknot, we use the elliptic Hall algebra to construct a 3-variable polynomial that specializes to the lambda-colored Homflypt polynomial of K. We show that this polynomial also specializes to one constructed by Cherednik and Danilenko [CD14] using the mathfrakglN double affine Hecke algebra. This proves one of the Connection Conjectures in [CD14].
