Critical Points of the Product of Powers of Linear Functions and Families of Bases of Singular Vectors

Abstract

The quasiclassical asymptotics of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation with values in the tensor product of sl(2)- representations are considered. The first term of asymptotics is an eigenvector of a system of commuting operators. We show that the norm of this vector with respect to the Shapovalov form is equal to the determinant of the matrix of second derivatives of a suitable function. This formula is an analog of the Gaudin and Korepin formulae for the norm of the Bethe vectors. We show that the eigenvectors form a basis under certain conditions.
