Scary Wheels (and Super Shrubs)
Abstract
We prove the shuffle realization for quantum affine superalgebras of types B,C,D in the loop realization, in that we construct an isomorphism between each of these algebras and a suitably defined double shuffle algebra. We explicitly describe the latter shuffle algebra using certain vanishing conditions that generalize the Feigin-Odesskii wheel conditions; a novel feature is the appearance of a so-called scary wheel, which is a particular order $2$ vanishing condition involving $7$ variables. Along the way, we fully develop the theory of shrubs in super types A (affine and toroidal), which are important combinatorial tools in the study of the shuffle algebras associated to toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. Our techniques also allow us to define quantum toroidal superalgebras of types B,C,D. More importantly, we provide a general framework to formulate and prove shuffle realizations in the wide generality of quivers with parameters.
