Abstract

In this note, we initiate the study of generating functions for tight cylindric partitions. For general (i.e., rr-rowed for r2r\geq 2) tight cylindric partitions, we provide analogs of the Corteel--Welsh functional equations. We prove closed forms for the bivariate generating functions for 2-rowed tight cylindric partitions. We also show that these partitions are in bijection with a class of partitions studied by Dousse, Hardiman, and Konan.
