Title: Five-term relations


Abstract: I will review how the five term relation for the 
Fadeev-Kashaev's quantum dilogarithm arises in the Hall algebra context, 
and sketch a simple proof. Then I will explain how this proof can be 
transported to the elliptic Hall algebra situation, where the five term 
relation implies identities between Macdonald polynomials conjectured by 
Bergeron and Haiman. This is a joint work with Adriano Garsia.


Venue: Luigi Stasi Seminar Room (ICTP Leonardo da Vinci Building, first
