M⃗ Versions of Andrews-Gordon Identities Revisited
Abstract
In this paper, we revisit the work of Berkovich and Paule on variants of the Andrews-Gordon identities. We find a generalization of their principal polynomial identity and, as a consequence, obtain new M⃗ versions of the Andrews-Gordon identities. More precisely, for non-negative integers M1≥ M2≥ M3≥…≥ Mν, we show that a broad class of multi-sums of the form ∑n ( q N12+⋯+Nν2 − M1N1 − M2N2 − ⋯ − MνNν )/( (q)n1(q)n2⋯(q)nν ) can be expressed as a sum of products. Above, we use standard notations for q-Pochhammer symbols and Ni = ∑k=iνnk for 1≤ i≤ ν.

AB - In this paper, we revisit the work of Berkovich and Paule on variants of the Andrews-Gordon identities. We find a generalization of their principal polynomial identity and, as a consequence, obtain new M⃗ versions of the Andrews-Gordon identities. More precisely, for non-negative integers M_1≥ M_2≥ M_3≥…≥ M_ν, we show that a broad class of multi-sums of the form ∑_n ( q^ N_1^2+⋯+N_ν^2 − M_1N_1 − M_2N_2 − ⋯ − M_νN_ν )/( (q)_n_1(q)_n_2⋯(q)_n_ν ) can be expressed as a sum of products. Above, we use standard notations for q-Pochhammer symbols and N_i = ∑_k=i^νn_k for 1≤ i≤ ν.
