Intertwining operators and soliton equations

Differential equations and intertwining operators

We show that if every module W for a vertex operator algebra V = ∐ n∈Z V(n) satisfies the condition dimW/C1(W ) < ∞, where C1(W ) is the subspace of W spanned by elements of the form u−1w for u ∈ V+ = ∐ n>0 V(n) and w ∈W , then matrix elements of products and iterates of intertwining operators satisfy certain systems of differential equations. Moreover, for prescribed singular points, there exi...

Intertwining Operators and Residues

Functional Equations Satisfied by Intertwining Operators of Reductive Groups

This paper generalizes a recent work of Vogan and Wallach [VW] in which they derived a difference equation satisfied by intertwining operators of reductive groups. We show that, associated with each irreducible finitedimensional representation, there is a functional equation relating intertwining operators. In this way, we obtain natural relations between intertwining operators for different se...

Logarithmic Intertwining Operators and Vertex Operators

This is the first in a series of papers where we study logarithmic intertwining operators for various vertex subalgebras of Heisenberg vertex operator algebras. In this paper we examine logarithmic intertwining operators associated with rank one Heisenberg vertex operator algebra M(1)a, of central charge 1 − 12a . We classify these operators in terms of depth and provide explicit constructions ...

Traces of intertwining operators and Macdonald's polynomials Alexander A. Kirillov, Jr. May 1995 Let : V ! V U be an intertwining operator between representations of a simple Lie algebra (quantum group, a ne Lie algebra). We de ne its generalized character to be the following function on the Cartan subalgebra with values in U : (h) = TrV ( eh). This is a generalization of usual characters. Thes...
