    Combinatorics of vertex operators and deformed W-algebra of type D(2,1;α)
    (Elsevier, 2022-07-16) Feigin, B.; Jimbo, M.; Mukhin, E.; Mathematical Sciences, School of Science
    We consider sets of screening operators with fermionic screening currents. We study sums of vertex operators which formally commute with the screening operators assuming that each vertex operator has rational contractions with all screening currents with only simple poles. We develop and use the method of qq-characters which are combinatorial objects described in terms of deformed Cartan matrix. We show that each qq-character gives rise to a sum of vertex operators commuting with screening operators and describe ways to understand the sum in the case it is infinite. We discuss combinatorics of the qq-characters and their relation to the q-characters of representations of quantum groups. We provide a number of explicit examples of the qq-characters with the emphasis on the case of D. We describe a relationship of the examples to various integrals of motion.
