+#+title: A \(q\)-Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm and a \(q\)-polymer
+
+#+date: <2016-10-13>
+
+(Latest update: 2017-01-12) In
+[[http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.00666][Matveev-Petrov 2016]] a
+\(q\)-deformed Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm (\(q\)RSK) was
+introduced. In this article we give reformulations of this algorithm in
+terms of Noumi-Yamada description, growth diagrams and local moves. We
+show that the algorithm is symmetric, namely the output tableaux pair
+are swapped in a sense of distribution when the input matrix is
+transposed. We also formulate a \(q\)-polymer model based on the
+\(q\)RSK and prove the corresponding Burke property, which we use to
+show a strong law of large numbers for the partition function given
+stationary boundary conditions and \(q\)-geometric weights. We use the
+\(q\)-local moves to define a generalisation of the \(q\)RSK taking a
+Young diagram-shape of array as the input. We write down the joint
+distribution of partition functions in the space-like direction of the
+\(q\)-polymer in \(q\)-geometric environment, formulate a \(q\)-version
+of the multilayer polynuclear growth model (\(q\)PNG) and write down the
+joint distribution of the \(q\)-polymer partition functions at a fixed
+time.
+
+This article is available at
+[[https://arxiv.org/abs/1610.03692][arXiv]]. It seems to me that one
+difference between arXiv and Github is that on arXiv each preprint has a
+few versions only. In Github many projects have a "dev" branch hosting
+continuous updates, whereas the master branch is where the stable
+releases live.
+
+[[file:%7B%7B%20site.url%20%7D%7D/assets/resources/qrsklatest.pdf][Here]]
+is a "dev" version of the article, which I shall push to arXiv when it
+stablises. Below is the changelog.
+
+- 2017-01-12: Typos and grammar, arXiv v2.
+- 2016-12-20: Added remarks on the geometric \(q\)-pushTASEP. Added
+ remarks on the converse of the Burke property. Added natural language
+ description of the \(q\)RSK. Fixed typos.
+- 2016-11-13: Fixed some typos in the proof of Theorem 3.
+- 2016-11-07: Fixed some typos. The \(q\)-Burke property is now stated
+ in a more symmetric way, so is the law of large numbers Theorem 2.
+- 2016-10-20: Fixed a few typos. Updated some references. Added a
+ reference: [[http://web.mit.edu/~shopkins/docs/rsk.pdf][a set of notes
+ titled "RSK via local transformations"]]. It is written by
+ [[http://web.mit.edu/~shopkins/][Sam Hopkins]] in 2014 as an
+ expository article based on MIT combinatorics preseminar presentations
+ of Alex Postnikov. It contains some idea (applying local moves to a
+ general Young-diagram shaped array in the order that matches any
+ growth sequence of the underlying Young diagram) which I thought I was
+ the first one to write down.
