Li and Uncu, a MacMahon analysis view of cylindric partitions
The paper studies generating functions of cylindric partitions by MacMahon’s Partition Analysis and obtains finite polynomial identities of Rogers–Ramanujan and Andrews–Gordon type. Equation (1.5) compares a finite multiple sum of products of Gaussian binomials, with a doubled boundary shift 2α_{ij} and a primed convention for negative upper index, against an alternating sum of Gaussian binomials with a parity-dependent lower index. The paper proves the cases k = 2, 3, 4 and states the general case k ≥ 5, 1 ≤ i < k as Conjecture 1.3; the case i = k is the Foda–Quano identity.
The module D5/S3/Combinatorics/CylindricPartition/LiUncu proves Conjecture 1.3.
