Abstract

In a recent paper, Griffin, Ono and Warnaar present a framework for Rogers-Ramanujan type identities using Hall-Littlewood polynomials to arrive at expressions of the form λ:λ1mqaλP2λ(1,q,q2,;qn)="Infinite product modular function"\sum_{\lambda : \lambda_1 \leq m} q^{a|\lambda|}P_{2\lambda}(1,q,q^2,\ldots ; q^{n}) = \text{"Infinite product modular function"} for a=1,2a = 1,2 and any positive integers mm and nn. A recent paper of Rains and Warnaar presents further Rogers-Ramanujan type identities involving sums of terms qλ/2Pλ(1,q,q2,;qn)q^{|\lambda|/2}P_{\lambda}(1,q,q^2,\ldots;q^n). It is natural to attempt to reformulate these various identities to match the well-known Andrews-Gordon identities they generalize. Here, we find combinatorial formulas to replace the Hall-Littlewood polynomials and arrive at such expressions.
