We introduce and study an inhomogeneous generalization of the spin -Whittaker polynomials from [15]. These are symmetric polynomials, and we prove a branching rule, skew dual and non-dual Cauchy identities, and an integral representation for them. Our main tool is a novel family of deformed Yang–Baxter equations.

Frozen pipes: lattice models for Grothendieck polynomials
We introduce families of two-parameter multivariate polynomials indexed by pairs of partitions $v,w$$ -- {\it biaxial double} $$(\beta,q)$$-{\it Grothendieck polynomials} -- which specialize at $$q=0$ and $v=1$ to double $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials from torus-equivariant connective K-theory. Initially defined recursively via divided difference operators, our main result is that these new polynomials arise as partition functions of solvable lattice models. Moreover, the associated quantum group of the solvable model for polynomials in $$n$$ pairs of variables is a Drinfeld twist of the $$U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_{n+1})$$ $$R$$-matrix. By leveraging the resulting Yang-Baxter equations of the lattice model, we show that these polynomials simultaneously generalize double $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials and dual double $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials for arbitrary permutations. We then use properties of the model and Yang-Baxter equations to reprove Fomin-Kirillov's Cauchy identity for $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials, generalize it to a new Cauchy identity for biaxial double $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials, and prove a new branching rule for double $$\beta$$-Grothendieck polynomials.

Abstract We use algebraic methods in statistical mechanics to represent a multi-parameter class of polynomials in several variables as partition functions of a new family of solvable lattice models. The class of polynomials, defined by A. N. Kirillov, is derived from the largest class of divided difference operators satisfying the braid relations of Cartan type $$A$$. It includes as specializations Schubert, Grothendieck, and dual-Grothendieck polynomials, among others. In particular, our results prove positivity conjectures of Kirillov for the subfamily of Hecke–Grothendieck polynomials, while the larger family is shown to exhibit rare instances of negative coefficients.more » « less

Recently, there has been much progress in understanding stationary measures for colored (also called multi-species or multi-type) interacting particle systems, motivated by asymptotic phenomena and rich underlying algebraic and combinatorial structures (such as nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials). In this paper, we present a unified approach to constructing stationary measures for most of the known colored particle systems on the ring and the line, including (1) the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (multispecies ASEP, or mASEP); (2) the q-deformed Totally Asymmetric Zero Range Process (TAZRP) also known as the q-Boson particle system; (3) the q-deformed Pushing Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (q-PushTASEP). Our method is based on integrable stochastic vertex models and the Yang-Baxter equation. We express the stationary measures as partition functions of new "queue vertex models" on the cylinder. The stationarity property is a direct consequence of the Yang-Baxter equation. For the mASEP on the ring, a particular case of our vertex model is equivalent to the multiline queues of Martin (arXiv:1810.10650). For the colored q-Boson process and the q-PushTASEP on the ring, we recover and generalize known stationary measures constructed using multiline queues or other methods by Ayyer-Mandelshtam-Martin (arXiv:2011.06117, arXiv:2209.09859), and Bukh-Cox (arXiv:1912.03510). Our proofs of stationarity use the Yang-Baxter equation and bypass the Matrix Product Ansatz used for the mASEP by Prolhac-Evans-Mallick (arXiv:0812.3293). On the line and in a quadrant, we use the Yang-Baxter equation to establish a general colored Burke's theorem, which implies that suitable specializations of our queue vertex models produce stationary measures for particle systems on the line. We also compute the colored particle currents in stationarity.more » « less

We study random permutations arising from reduced pipe dreams. Our main model is motivated by Grothendieck polynomials with parameter $$\beta=1$$ arising in K-theory of the flag variety. The probability weight of a permutation is proportional to the principal specialization (setting all variables to 1) of the corresponding Grothendieck polynomial. By mapping this random permutation to a version of TASEP (Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process), we describe the limiting permuton and fluctuations around it as the order $$n$$ of the permutation grows to infinity. The fluctuations are of order $$n^{\frac13}$$ and have the Tracy-Widom GUE distribution, which places this algebraic (K-theoretic) model into the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang universality class. We also investigate non-reduced pipe dreams and make progress on a recent open problem on the asymptotic number of inversions of the resulting permutation. Inspired by Stanley's question for the maximal value of principal specializations of Schubert polynomials, we resolve the analogous question for $$\beta=1$$ Grothendieck polynomials, and provide bounds for general $$\beta$$.more » « less

Employing bijectivization of summation identities, we introduce local stochastic moves based on the Yang–Baxter equation for $$U_{q}(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}_{2}})$$ . Combining these moves leads to a new object which we call the spin Hall–Littlewood Yang–Baxter field—a probability distribution on two-dimensional arrays of particle configurations on the discrete line. We identify joint distributions along down-right paths in the Yang–Baxter field with spin Hall–Littlewood processes, a generalization of Schur processes. We consider various degenerations of the Yang–Baxter field leading to new dynamic versions of the stochastic six-vertex model and of the Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process.more » « less
