Affine Macdonald denominator conjecture

About 10 years old · traced to

Let k≥0\mathsf{k}\geq 0. For the affine Macdonald trace function associated with the zero weight and level zero, χ0,0,k(q,λ,ω)\chi_{0,0,\mathsf{k}}(q,\lambda,\omega), let ρ\rho denote the appropriate Weyl vector, let dd be the grading element, and let mult⁡(α)\operatorname{mult}(\alpha) denote the multiplicity of a positive affine root α\alpha. The notation (qa;qb)(q^a;q^b) denotes the qq-Pochhammer symbol.

Affine denominator conjecture. The affine Macdonald denominator is given by

χ0,0,k(q,λ,ω)=q2(k−1)(ρ,λ)∏i=1k−1(q−2ω+2i;q−2ω)∏i=1k−1(q−2ω+2ni;q−2ω)∏i=1k−1∏α>0(1−q−2(α,λ+ωd)+2i)mult⁡(α).\chi_{0,0,\mathsf{k}}(q,\lambda,\omega)=q^{2(\mathsf{k}-1)(\rho,\lambda)}\frac{\prod_{i=1}^{\mathsf{k}-1}(q^{-2\omega+2i};q^{-2\omega})}{\prod_{i=1}^{\mathsf{k}-1}(q^{-2\omega+2ni};q^{-2\omega})}\prod_{i=1}^{\mathsf{k}-1}\prod_{\alpha>0}\left(1-q^{-2(\alpha,\lambda+\omega d)+2i}\right)^{\operatorname{mult}(\alpha)}.

This is presented as a refinement of Etingof–Kirillov Jr.'s affine Macdonald denominator conjecture, but the supplied material gives no resolution status; the formula is intended to provide an affine analogue of the Macdonald denominator.
