A closed formula in the deformed affine nilHecke algebra (2412.18679v1)

Abstract: There is a q-deformation of the reflection representation of the affine symmetric group, which arises in the quantum geometric Satake equivalence, and in the study of the complex reflection groups $G(m,m,n)$. Demazure operators (often called divided difference operators) act on the polynomial ring of this deformed representation. When $n=3$ we prove an explicit closed formula for the scalar one obtains when applying a degree $-k$ Demazure operator to a monomial of degree $k$. We also prove a simpler formula for the scalar obtained after specializing q to a root of unity.
