Mariño–Vafa formula in the one-leg specialization

From papers

Let P+{\mathcal P}_+ denote the set of nonempty partitions, let μ+\mu^+, μ\mu^-, ν+\nu^+, and ν\nu^- be partitions, and let Gμ+,μ(τ)G_{\mu^+,\mu^-}(\tau) be the specialization defined by τ=y/x\tau=y/x. Let χν(μ)\chi_\nu(\mu), zμz_\mu, κν\kappa_\nu, Wν+,ν{\mathcal W}_{\nu^+,\nu^-}, and pμ±p^{\pm}_\mu have their standard meanings. Mariño–Vafa formula. The identity

exp((μ+,μ)P+2Gμ+,μ(τ)pμ++pμ)=μ±=ν±0χν+(μ+)zμ+χν(μ)zμe1(κν+τ+κντ)λ/2Wν+,νpμ++pμ\exp\left(\sum_{(\mu^+,\mu^- )\in {\mathcal P}_+^2}G_{\mu^+,\mu^-}(\tau)p^+_{\mu^+}p^-_{\mu^-}\right) = \sum_{|\mu^{\pm}|=|\nu^{\pm}|\geq 0}\frac{\chi_{\nu^+}(\mu^+)}{z_{\mu^+}}\frac{\chi_{\nu^-}(\mu^-)}{z_{\mu^-}}e^{\sqrt{-1}(\kappa_{\nu^+}\tau+\frac{\kappa_{\nu^-}}{\tau})\lambda/2}{\mathcal W}_{\nu^+,\nu^-}p^+_{\mu^+}p^-_{\mu^-}

holds. This is presented as the main subject of the paper and is the specialized form of the Hodge-integral identity relating the geometric generating functions to representation theory. The supplied source does not provide an independent status assessment beyond presenting the identity as the main result.
