Abstract: We give several equivalent combinatorial descriptions of the space of states for the box-ball systems, and connect certain partition functions for these models with the q-weight multiplicities of the tensor product of the fundamental representations of the Lie algebra gl(n). As an application, we give an elementary proof of the special case t=1 of the Haglund--Haiman--Loehr formula. Also, we propose a new class of combinatorial statistics that naturally generalize the so-called energy statistics.
