Monomial Expansions for q-Whittaker and Modified Hall-Littlewood Polynomials

Abstract. We consider the monomial expansion of the q-Whittaker polynomials given by the fermionic formula and via the inv and quinv statistics. We construct bijections between the parametrizing sets of these three models which preserve the x- and q-weights, and which are compatible with natural projection and branching maps. We apply this to the limit construction of local Weyl modules and obtain a new character formula for the basic representation of sl^n. Finally, we indicate how our main results generalize to the modified Hall-Littlewood case.
