Noncommutative determinants, Cauchy-Binet formulae, and Capelli-type identities II. Grassmann and quantum oscillator algebra representation (1309.7916v2)

Abstract: We prove that, for $X$, $Y$, $A$ and $B$ matrices with entries in a non-commutative ring such that $[X_{ij},Y_{k\ell}]=-A_{i\ell} B_{kj}$, satisfying suitable commutation relations (in particular, $X$ is a Manin matrix), the following identity holds: $ \mathrm{coldet} X \mathrm{coldet} Y = < 0 | \mathrm{coldet} (a A + X (I-a^{\dagger} B)^{-1} Y) |0 > $. Furthermore, if also $Y$ is a Manin matrix, $ \mathrm{coldet} X \mathrm{coldet} Y =\int \mathcal{D}(\psi, \psi^{\dagger}) \exp [ \sum_{k \geq 0} \frac{1}{k+1} (\psi^{\dagger} A \psi)^{k} (\psi^{\dagger} X B^k Y \psi) ] $. Notations: $ < 0 |$, $| 0 >$, are respectively the bra and the ket of the ground state, $a^{\dagger}$ and $a$ the creation and annihilation operators of a quantum harmonic oscillator, while $\psi^{\dagger}_i$ and $\psi_i$ are Grassmann variables in a Berezin integral. These results should be seen as a generalization of the classical Cauchy-Binet formula, in which $A$ and $B$ are null matrices, and of the non-commutative generalization, the Capelli identity, in which $A$ and $B$ are identity matrices and $[X_{ij},X_{k\ell}]=[Y_{ij},Y_{k\ell}]=0$.
