Using a $q$-antisymmetrization procedure, these semi-infinite wedges can be realized inside an infinite tensor product of evaluation modules. This realization gives rise to simple descriptions of vertex operators and (up to a scalar function) their compositions.17 pagesQuantum AlgebraSemi-Infinite Wedges and Vertex Operatorstext
