Pfaffian and Hafnian Identities in Shuffle Algebras
Chen’s lemma on iterated integrals implies that certain identities involving multiple integrals, such as the de Bruijn and Wick formulas, amount to combinatorial identities for Pfaffians and hafnians in shuffle algebras. We provide direct algebraic proofs of such shuffle identities, and obtain various generalizations. We also discuss some Pfaffian identities due to Sundquist and Ishikawa-Wakaya...
متن کاملOn refined enumerations of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions I
Abstract In this paper we give Pfaffian expressions and constant term identities for three conjectures (i.e. Conjecture 2, Conjecture 3 and Conjecture 7) by Mills, Robbins and Rumsey in the paper “Self-complementary totally symmetric plane partitions” J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 42, 277–292) concerning the refined enumeration problems of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions. We al...
متن کاملEnumeration of Symmetry Classes of Alternating Sign Matrices and Characters of Classical Groups
An alternating sign matrix is a square matrix with entries 1, 0 and −1 such that the sum of the entries in each row and each column is equal to 1 and the nonzero entries alternate in sign along each row and each column. To some of the symmetry classes of alternating sign matrices and their variations, G. Kuperberg associate square ice models with appropriate boundary conditions, and give determ...

متن کاملELLIPTIC INTEGRABLE SYSTEMS Generalizations of Cauchy’s Determinant Identity and Schur’s Pfaffian Identity
Abstract We review several determinant and Pfaffian identities, which generalize the evaluation formulae of Cauchy’s determinant det (1/(xi + yj)) and Schur’s Pfaffian Pf ((xj − xi)/(xj + xi)). As a multi-variable generalization, we consider Cauchytype determinants and Schur-type Pfaffians of matrices with entries involving some generalized Vandermonde determinants. Also we give an elliptic gen...
