Abstract

We conjecture affine or Hall-Littlewood analogues of the dual Jacobi-Trudi formulas for orthogonal and symplectic Schur functions indexed by rectangular partitions of maximal height. These conjectures are then used to derive tt-analogues of many known Rogers-Ramanujan identities for the characters of standard modules of affine Lie algebras. This includes tt-analogues of the classical Rogers-Ramanujan identities, (some of) the Andrews-Gordon identities and the Cn(1)\mathrm{C}_n^{(1)}, A2n(2)\mathrm{A}_{2n}^{(2)} and Dn+2(2)\mathrm{D}_{n+2}^{(2)} GOW identities. We also prove an affine analogue of the dual Jacobi-Trudi formula for Schur functions indexed by rectangular partitions of arbitrary height.
