Popis: | In this paper, we extend results connecting quantum groups to spherical Whittaker functions on metaplectic covers of $GL_r(F)$, for $F$ a nonarchimedean local field. Brubaker, Buciumas, and Bump showed that for a certain metaplectic $n$-fold cover of $GL_r(F)$ a set of Yang-Baxter equations model the action of standard intertwiners on principal series Whittaker functions. These equations arise from a Drinfeld twist of the quantum affine Lie superalgebra $U_{\sqrt{v}}(\widehat{\frak{gl}}(n)),$ where $v = q^{-1}$ for $q$ the cardinality of the residue field. We extend their results to all metaplectic covers of $GL_r(F)$, providing new solutions to Yang-Baxter equations matching the scattering matrix for the associated Whittaker functions. Each cover has an associated integer invariant $n_Q$ and the resulting solutions are connected to the quantum group $U_{\sqrt{v}}(\widehat{\frak{gl}}(n_Q))$ and quantum superalgebra $U_{\sqrt{v}}(\widehat{\frak{gl}}(1|n_Q))$.
