A proof of the second Rogers-Ramanujan identity via Kleshchev multipartitions (Q6097361)

\textit{J. Lepowsky} and \textit{S. C. Milne} [Adv. Math. 29, 15--59 (1978; Zbl 0384.10008)] observed a similarity between some Lie algebraic identities and the infinite products of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac {q^{n^2}}{(1-q)(1-q^2)\cdots (1-q^n)}= \prod_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(1-q^{5n+1})(1-q^{5n+4})} \;\;\;\;\; (|q|<1) \] and \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac {q^{n^2+n}}{(1-q)(1-q^2)\cdots (1-q^n)}= \prod_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(1-q^{5n+2})(1-q^{5n+3})} \;\;\;\;\; (|q|<1). \] \textit{J. Lepowsky} and \textit{R. L. Wilson} [Invent. Math. 77, 199--290 (1984; Zbl 0577.17009)] gave a Lie theoretic interpretation of the infinite sums in the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. \textit{S. Corteel} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 145, 2011--2022 (2017; Zbl 1357.05007)] gave a simple combinatorial proof of the second Rogers-Ramanujan identity by using cylindric plane partitions and the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth algorithm. Several relationships between Rogers-Ramanujan type identities and Kashiwara crystals are known, see [\textit{J. Dousse} and \textit{J. Lovejoy}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 146, 55--67 (2018; Zbl 1375.05018)]. In the paper under review the author proves the second Rogers-Ramanujan identity using certain \(k\)-tuples of unequal partitions, the Kleshchev multipartitions.
