Statement

Huang, Jiang and Oblomkov conjectured that the Eulerian qq-series counting commuting pairs of nilpotent matrices with Xa=YbX^a = Y^b equals an explicit theta-and-eta product, making the point count essentially modular. The conjecture is layered in aa; the a=2a = 2 layer is classical, including Rogers-Ramanujan and Andrews-Gordon. Nothing was known for a=3a = 3. That layer is now proved in full, yielding a new infinite family of Rogers-Ramanujan identities and a geometric origin for Warnaar's products.

    That credit came with the record as it was imported. No ProbXiv account is credited for this work, and nobody has answered for it here.

    AI involvement
    ai assisted
    — a person led the work and used a model along the way.

    The mathematics is the authors'; AxiomProver supplied the formal certificate. "AxiomProver, an AI system currently under development, was used to generate this certificate. The system verified these results in Lean assuming existing literature."

    Proves the a = 3 layer; the conjecture is layered in a and remains open for larger a.

    lean: partially checkedLean

    scope Lean formalization of the core argument; statement correspondence not independently audited

    The Lean certificate is explicitly conditional, verifying the new identities assuming results from the existing literature rather than from first principles, and the system that produced it also produced the formal statements. Public at the AxiomMath repository.

    Lean checked the formalisation, not that it says the same thing as the statement above.
