This semester's first CART seminar is scheduled for Mar 6th (Fri), 10:30 - 11:30 (Korea time). 

Speaker: Ole Warnaar (The University of Queensland)

Title: Hall--Littlewood symmetric functions and the Rogers--Ramanujan identities

Abstract: Thanks to the groundbreaking work of Lepowsky, Milne and Primc in the late 1970s and early 1980s it is well understood that the celebrated Rogers--Ramanujan identities are related to the level-$3$ standard modules of the affine Lie algebra $\mathrm{A}_1^{(1)}$. This poses the natural question if Rogers--Ramanujan-type identities exist for arbitrary standard modules of affine Lie algebras. In this talk I will explain how ideas from symmetric function theory may shed some light on this question, which is very open despite recent advances. 

No prior knowledge of the representation theory of affine Lie algebras will be assumed in this talk.
