Refined dual Grothendieck polynomials, integrability, and the Schur measure

We construct a vertex model whose partition function is a refined dual Grothendieck polynomial, where the states are interpreted as nonintersecting lattice paths. Using this, we show refined dual Grothendieck polynomials are multi-Schur functions and give a number of identities, including a Littlewood and Cauchy(-Littlewood) identity. We then refine Yeliussizov's connection between dual Grothendieck polynomials and the last passage percolation (LPP) stochastic process discussed by Johansson. By refining algebraic techniques of Johansson, we show Jacobi-Trudi formulas for skew refined dual Grothendieck polynomials conjectured by Grinberg and recover a relation between LPP and the Schur process due to Baik and Rains. Lastly, we extend our vertex model techniques to show some identities for refined Grothendieck polynomials, including a Jacobi-Trudi formula.
