Langlands duality for finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras
We describe a correspondence (or duality) between the q-characters of
finite-dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra and its
Langlands dual in the spirit of q-alg/9708006 and 0809.4453. We prove this
duality for the Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules and their irreducible tensor
products. In the course of the proof we introduce and construct "interpolating
(q,t)-characters" depending on two parameters which interpolate between the
q-characters of a quantum affine algebra and its Langlands dual.Comment: 40 pages; several results and comments added. Accepted for
publication in Letters in Mathematical Physic
