The conjectural norm formula for Macdonald superpolynomials

At least 13 years old · documented by

Let PΛP_\Lambda be the Macdonald superpolynomial associated with a superpartition Λ\Lambda of fermionic degree mm, and let hΛ↑h^\uparrow_\Lambda and hΛ↓h^\downarrow_\Lambda be the products over the squares specified in the source. The norm conjecture. The norm of PΛP_\Lambda is

⟨ ⁣⟨PΛ∣PΛ⟩ ⁣⟩q,t=(−1)(m2)q∣Λa∣hΛ↑hΛ↓.\langle\!\langle P_\Lambda|P_\Lambda\rangle\!\rangle_{q,t}=(-1)^{\binom{m}{2}}q^{|\Lambda^a|}\frac{h^\uparrow_\Lambda}{h^\downarrow_\Lambda}.

This formula was conjectured in earlier work and is the norm formula for the bilinear scalar product on Macdonald superpolynomials; the paper relates it to a second, sesquilinear scalar product.
