Abstract

In our previous works “Pfaffian decomposition and a Pfaffian analogue of q-Catalan Hankel determinants” (by M.Ishikawa, H. Tagawa and J. Zeng, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A, 120, 2013, 1263-1284) we have proposed several ways to evaluate certain Catalan-Hankel Pffafians and also formulated several conjectures. In this work we propose a new approach to compute these Catalan-Hankel Pffafians using Selberg's integral as well as their q-analogues. In particular, this approach permits us to settle most of the conjectures in our previous paper.
