Abstract:

This will be a review of the 3 types of Macdonald polynomials, (electronic, bosonic and fermionic) and their relationships via symmetrization and the Boson-Fermion correspondence. The picture is a generalization of the classical relationship between monomials, Schur functions and Vandermonde determinants. This talk is based on joint work with Laura Colmenarejo arXiv:2212.03312.
