Vk. Dobrev et P. Truini, POLYNOMIAL REALIZATION OF THE U-Q(SL(3)) GELFAND-(WEYL)-ZETLIN BASIS, Journal of mathematical physics, 38(7), 1997, pp. 3750-3767
An explicit realization of the U=U-q(sl(3)) Gel'fand-(Weyl)-Zetlin (GW
Z) basis as polynomial functions in three variables (real or complex)
is given. This realization is obtained in two complementary ways. Firs
t, a known correspondence is used between the abstract GWZ basis and e
xplicit polynomials in the quantum subgroup U+ of the raising generato
rs. Then an explicit construction is used of arbitrary lowest weight (
holomorphic) representations of U in terms of three variables on which
the generators of U are realized as q-difference operators. The appli
cation of the GWZ corresponding polynomials in this realization of the
lowest weight vector (the function 1) produces the first realization
of this GWZ basis, Another realization of the GWZ polynomial basis is
found by the explicit diagonalization of the operators of isospin (I)
over cap(2), third component of isospin (I) over cap(z), and hyperchar
ge (Y) over cap, in the same realization as q-difference operators. Th
e result is that the eigenvectors can be written in terms of q-hyperge
ometric polynomials in the three variables, Finally an explicit scalar
product is constructed by adapting the Shapovalov form to this settin
g, The orthogonality of the GWZ polynomials with respect to this scala
r product is proven using both realizations, This provides a polynomia
l construction for the orthonormal GWZ basis. The results hen are for
generic q, leaving the root of unity case for a following paper. II se
ems that the results are new also in the classical situation (q = 1).
