Abstract

Abstract: Based on the screened vertex operators associated with the affine screening operators, we introduce the formal power series $f^{\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(x, p|s, \kappa|q, t)$ which we call the non-stationary Ruijsenaars function . We identify it with the generating function for the Euler characteristics of the affine Laumon spaces. When the parameters $s$ and $\kappa$ are suitably chosen, the limit $t\rightarrow q$ of $f^{\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(x, p|s, \kappa|q, q/t)$ gives us the dominant integrable characters of $\widehat{\mathfrak sl}_N$ multiplied by $1/(p^N;p^N)_\infty$ ( i.e. the $\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_1$ character). Several conjectures are presented for $f^{\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(x, p|s, \kappa|q, t)$, including the bispectral and the Poincaré dualities, and the evaluation formula. The main conjecture asserts that (i) one can normalize $f^{\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(x, p|s, \kappa|q, t)$ in such a way that the limit $\kappa\rightarrow 1$ exists, and (ii) the limit $f^{{\rm st.}\, \widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(x, p|s|q, t)$ gives us the eigenfunction of the elliptic Ruijsenaars operator. The non-stationary affine $q$ -difference Toda operator ${\mathcal T}^{\widehat{\mathfrak gl}_N}(\kappa)$ is introduced, which comes as an outcome of the study of the Poincaré duality conjecture in the affine Toda limit $t\rightarrow 0$ . The main conjecture is examined also in the limiting cases of the affine $q$ -difference Toda ($t\rightarrow 0$ ), and the elliptic Calogero–Sutherland ($q, t\rightarrow 1$ ) equations.
