We give another proof of the second Rogers-Ramanujan identity by Kashiwara
crystals.Comment: 6 pages, a submitted versio
A Fibonacci variant of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities via crystal energy
We define a length function for a perfect crystal. As an application, we
derive a variant of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities which involves (a
-analog of) the Fibonacci numbers.Comment: This is an early draft for a talk for the conference "Recent
developments in Combinatorial Representation Theory" at RIM
A new four parameter q-series identity and its partition implications
We prove a new four parameter q-hypergeometric series identity from which the
three parameter key identity for the Goellnitz theorem due to Alladi, Andrews,
and Gordon, follows as a special case by setting one of the parameters equal to
0. The new identity is equivalent to a four parameter partition theorem which
extends the deep theorem of Goellnitz and thereby settles a problem raised by
Andrews thirty years ago. Some consequences including a quadruple product
extension of Jacobi's triple product identity, and prospects of future research
are briefly discussed.Comment: 25 pages, in Sec. 3 Table 1 is added, discussion is added at the end
