These formulas are generalizations of the formulas of Haglund-Haiman-Loehr for Macdonald polynoimals of type GL(n). At q=0 these formulas specialize to the formula of Schwer for the Macdonald spherical function in terms of positively folded alcove walks and at q=t=0 these formulas specialize to the formula for the Weyl character in terms of the Littelmann path model (in the positively folded gallery form of Gaussent-Littelmann).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-03-05T18:01:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E05", "33D52" ], "keywords": [ "macdonald polynomials", "uniform combinatorial formula", "littelmann path model", "macdonald spherical function", "positively folded gallery form" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0803.1146R" } } }
