The $GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$ Hecke-Baxter operator was introduced as an element of the $O_{\ell+1}$-spherical Hecke algebra associated with the Gelfand pair $O_{\ell+1}\subset GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$. It was specified by the property to act on an $O_{\ell+1}$-fixed vector in a $GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$-principal series representation via multiplication by the local Archimedean $L$-factor canonically attached to the representation. In this note we propose another way to define the Hecke-Baxter operator, identifying it with a generalized Whittaker function for an extension of the Lie group $GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})\times GL_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$ by a Heisenberg Lie group. We also show how this Whittaker function can be lifted to a matrix element of an extension of the Lie group $Sp_{2\ell+2}(\mathbb{R})\times Sp_{2\ell+2}(\mathbb{R})$ by a Heisenberg Lie group., Comment: 20 pages

We construct an integral transformation intertwining the Gelfand-Tsetlin and the (modified) Gauss-Givental realizations of principle series representations of gl(3). This provides a direct identification of the corresponding integral representations for the gl(3)-Whittaker function. The construction essentially uses integral identities due to Barnes and Gustafson thus providing a basis for their representation theory interpretation. The result of this paper might be useful for constructing the explicit analytic realization of the mirror symmetry map in the case of the flag manifold GL(3)/B., Comment: 50 pages

We develop a representation theory approach to the study of generalized hypergeometric functions of Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevisnky (GKZ). We show that the GKZ hypergeometric functions may be identified with matrix elements of non-reductive Lie algebras $\mathfrak{L}_N$ of oscillator type. The Whittaker functions associated with principal series representations of $\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$ being special cases of GKZ hypergeometric functions, thus admit along with a standard matrix element representations associated with reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{\ell+1}(\mathbb{R})$, another matrix element representation in terms of $\mathfrak{L}_{\ell(\ell+1)}$., Comment: 24 pages

We develop representation theory approach to the study of special functions associated with toric varieties. In particular we show that the corresponding special functions are given by matrix elements of certain non-reductive Lie algebras, Comment: 5 pages

The orthosymplectic super Lie algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(1|\,2\ell)$ is the closest analog of standard Lie algebras in the world of super Lie algebras. We demonstrate that the corresponding $\mathfrak{osp}(1|\,2\ell)$-Toda chain turns out to be an instance of a $BC_\ell$-Toda chain. The underlying reason for this relation is discussed., Comment: 17 pages

The normalizer $N_G(H_G)$ of a maximal torus $H_G$ in a semisimple complex Lie group $G$ does not in general allow a presentation as a semidirect product of $H_G$ and the corresponding Weyl group $W_G$. Meanwhile, splitting holds for classical groups corresponding to the root systems $A_\ell$, $B_\ell$, $D_\ell$. For the remaining classical groups corresponding to the root systems $C_\ell$ there still exists an embedding of the Tits extension of $W_G$ into normalizer $N_G(H_G)$. We provide explicit unified construction of the lifts of the Weyl groups into normalizers of maximal tori for classical Lie groups corresponding to the root systems $A_\ell$, $B_\ell$, $D_\ell$ using embeddings into general linear Lie groups. For symplectic series of classical Lie groups we provide an explanation of impossibility of embedding of the Weyl group into the symplectic group. The explicit formula for adjoint action of the lifts of the Weyl groups on $\mathfrak{g}={\rm Lie}(G)$ are given. Finally some examples of the groups closely associated with classical Lie groups are considered., Comment: 48 pages

Formation, emission and lasing properties of strain-free InP(As)/AlInAs quantum dots (QDs) embedded in AlInAs microdisk (MD) cavity were investigated using transmission electron microscopy and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. In MD structures, the QDs having nano-pan-cake shape have height of ~2 nm, lateral size of 20-50 nm and density of ~5x109 cm-2. Their emission observed at ~940 nm revealed strong temperature quenching, which points to exciton decomposition. It also showed unexpected type-I character indicating In-As intermixing, as confirmed by band structure calculations. We observed lasing of InP(As) QD excitons into whispering gallery modes in MD having dimeter ~3.2 mkm and providing free spectral range of ~27 nm and quality factors up to Q~13000. Threshold of ~50 W/cm2 and spontaneous emission coupling coefficient of ~0.2 were measured for this MD-QD system.

We consider Baxter Q-operators for various versions of quantum affine Toda chain. The interpretation of eigenvalues of the finite Toda chain Baxter operators as local Archimedean L-functions proposed recently is generalized to the case of affine Lie algebras. We also introduce a simple generalization of Baxter operators and local L-functions compatible with this identification. This gives a connection of the Toda chain Baxter Q-operators with an Archimedean version of the Polya-Hilbert operator proposed by Berry-Kitting. We also elucidate the Dorey-Tateo spectral interpretation of eigenvalues of Q-operators. Using explicit expressions for eigenfunctions of affine/relativistic Toda chain we obtain an Archimedean analog of Casselman-Shalika-Shintani formula for Whittaker function in terms of characters., Comment: Typos are corrected,27 pages

In this paper we introduce Baxter integral Q-operators for finite-dimensional Lie algebras gl(n+1) and so(2n+1). Whittaker functions corresponding to these algebras are eigenfunctions of the Q-operators with the eigenvalues expressed in terms of Gamma-functions. The appearance of the Gamma-functions is one of the manifestations of an interesting connection between Mellin-Barnes and Givental integral representations of Whittaker functions, which are in a sense dual to each other. We define a dual Baxter operator and derive a family of mixed Mellin-Barnes-Givental integral representations. Givental and Mellin-Barnes integral representations are used to provide a short proof of the Friedberg-Bump and Bump conjectures for G=GL(n+1) proved earlier by Stade. We also identify eigenvalues of the Baxter Q-operator acting on Whittaker functions with local Archimedean L-factors. The Baxter Q-operator introduced in this paper is then described as a particular realization of the explicitly defined universal Baxter operator in the spherical Hecke algebra H(G(R),K), K being a maximal compact subgroup of G. Finally we stress an analogy between Q-operators and certain elements of the non-Archimedean Hecke algebra H(G(Q_p),G(Z_p))., Comment: 32 pages, typos corrected

We propose integral representations of the Whittaker functions for the classical Lie algebras sp(2l), so(2l) and so(2l+1). These integral representations generalize the integral representation of gl(l+1)-Whittaker functions first introduced by Givental. One of the salient features of the Givental representation is its recursive structure with respect to the rank of the Lie algebra gl(l+1). The proposed generalization of the Givental representation to the classical Lie algebras retains this property. It was shown elsewhere that the integral recursion operator for gl(l+1)-Whittaker function in the Givental representation coincides with a degeneration of the Baxter Q-operator for $\hat{gl(l+1)}$-Toda chains. We construct Q-operator for affine Lie algebras $\hat{so(2l)}$, $\hat{so(2l+1)}$ and a twisted form of $\hat{gl(2l)}$. We demonstrate that the relation between recursion integral operators of the generalized Givental representation and degenerate Q-operators remains valid for all classical Lie algebras., Comment: 100 pages

Recently integral representations for the eigenfunctions of quadratic open Toda chain Hamiltonians for classical groups was proposed. This representation generalizes Givental representation for A_n. In this note we verify that the wave functions defined by these integral representations are common eigenfunctions for the complete set of open Toda chain Hamiltonians. We consider the zero eigenvalue wave functions for classical groups C_n and D_n thus completing the generalization of the Givental construction in these cases. The construction is based on a recursive procedure and uses the formalism of Baxter Q-operators. We also verify that the integral Q-operators for C_n, D_n and twisted affine algebra A_{2n-1}^{(2)} proposed previously intertwine complete sets of Hamiltonian operators. Finally we provide integral representations of the eigenfunctions of the quadratic $D_n$ Toda chain Hamiltonians for generic nonzero eigenvalues., Comment: 14 pages, the case of nonzero eigenvalues is added

We propose integral representations for wave functions of B_n, C_n, and D_n open Toda chains at zero eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian operators thus generalizing Givental representation for A_n. We also construct Baxter Q-operators for closed Toda chains corresponding to Lie algebras B_{\infty}, C_{\infty}, D_{\infty}, affine Lie algebras B^{(1)}_n, C^{(1)}_n, D^{(1)}_n and twisted affine Lie algebras A^{(2)}_{2n-1} and A^{(2)}_{2n}. Our approach is based on a generalization of the connection between Baxter Q-operator for A_n^{(1)} closed Toda chain and Givental representation for the wave function of A_n open Toda chain uncovered previously., Comment: Typos are corrected, Section 5 is extended, AmsLaTex, 19 pages

We propose group theory interpretation of the integral representation of the quantum open Toda chain wave function due to Givental. In particular we construct the representation of $U((\mathfrak{gl}(N))$ in terms of first order differential operators in Givental variables. The construction of this representation turns out to be closely connected with the integral representation based on the factorized Gauss decomposition. We also reveal the recursive structure of the Givental representation and provide the connection with the Baxter $Q$-operator formalism. Finally the generalization of the integral representation to the infinite and periodic quantum Toda wave functions is discussed., Comment: Corrections in Sections (3.2) and (4.1)

This paper is a short account of the construction of a new class of the infinite-dimensional representations of the quantum groups. The examples include finite-dimensional quantum groups $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$, Yangian $Y(\mathfrak{g})$ and affine quantum groups at zero level $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})_{c=0}$ corresponding to an arbitrary finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. At the intermediate step we construct the embedding of the quantum groups into the algebra of the rational functions on the quantum multi-dimensional torus. The explicit parameterization of the quantum groups used in this paper turns out to be closely related to the parameterization of the moduli spaces of the monopoles. As a result the proposed constructions of the representations provide a quantization of the moduli spaces of the monopoles on $\RR^3$ and $\RR^2\times S^1$., Comment: LaTeX2e, 11 pages

A new class of infinite dimensional representations of the Yangians $Y(\frak{g})$ and $Y(\frak{b})$ corresponding to a complex semisimple algebra $\frak{g}$ and its Borel subalgebra $\frak{b}\subset\frak{g}$ is constructed. It is based on the generalization of the Drinfeld realization of $Y(\frak{g})$, $\frak{g}=\frak{gl}(N)$ in terms of quantum minors to the case of an arbitrary semisimple Lie algebra $\frak{g}$. The Poisson geometry associated with the constructed representations is described. In particular it is shown that the underlying symplectic leaves are isomorphic to the moduli spaces of $G$-monopoles defined as the components of the space of based maps of $\mathbb{P}^1$ into the generalized flag manifold $X=G/B$. Thus the constructed representations of the Yangian may be considered as a quantization of the moduli space of the monopoles., Comment: 16 pages, LaTex2e, some misprints are fixed
