Tokuyama’s Theorem
Tokuyama’s Theorem
This chapter introduces the Tokuyama's Theorem, first by writing the Weyl character formula and restating Schur polynomials, the values of the Whittaker function multiplied by the normalization constant. The λ-parts of Whittaker coefficients of Eisenstein series can be profitably regarded as a deformation of the numerator in the Weyl character formula. This leads to deformations of the Weyl character formula. Tokuyama gave such a deformation. It is an expression of ssubscript Greek small letter lamda(z) as a ratio of a numerator to a denominator. The denominator is a deformation of the Weyl denominator, and the numerator is a sum over Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns with top row λ + ρ.
Keywords: Tokuyama's Theorem, Weyl character formula, Schur polynomial, Whittaker function, Whittaker coefficient, Eisenstein series, Weyl denominator, Gelfand-Tsetlin pattern
