Examples when quantum $q$ equals to arithmetic $q$
First, as a disclaimer, I should say that this post is not about any specific propositions, but is more of some philosophical flavor.
In the world of quantum mathematics, the letter $q$ is a standard ...

"quantum" symmetric plane partitions beget alternating sign matrices?
The "quantum" version qTSPP of the number of totally symmetric plane partitions, contained in the cube $[0,n]^3$, is enumerated by
$$f_n(q):=\prod_{j=1}^n\prod_{k=1}^j\prod_{\ell=1}^k\frac{1-...

Lusztig's $q$-analog of weight multiplicity with product formula
For partitions $\lambda, \mu \vdash n$, the Kostka-Foulkes polynomial $K_{\lambda,\mu}(q)$, a $q$-analog of the Kostka coefficient $K_{\lambda,\mu}$, has a combinatorial description, due to Lascoux ...

A q,t-extension of Plancherel Measure thru Yang-Mills Theory ?
Buried in the physics paper by Nekrasov and Okounkov, a strange identity is proven:
$$ \prod_{n > 0} (1 - q^n)^{\mu^2-1} = \sum_{\mathbf{k}} q^{|\mathbf{k}|} \prod_{\square \in k} \left( 1 - \frac{\...
