Refined Rogers–Ramanujan product conjecture

Let qq and xx be formal variables, and for each fixed integer m1m\geq1 let nm,kn_{m,k} be positive integers indexed by finitely many kImk\in I_m. Refined Rogers–Ramanujan conjecture. For each fixed m1m\geq1, there exist finitely many such positive integers satisfying

n0qn2(1q)(1qn)(q1/2x)n=m1kZl0(1q(k+1)/2+lxm)(1)mnm,k.\sum_{n\geq0}\frac{q^{n^2}}{(1-q)\cdots(1-q^n)}(q^{-1/2}x)^n=\prod_{m\geq1}\prod_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}\prod_{l\geq0}\left(1-q^{(k+1)/2+l}x^m\right)^{(-1)^m n_{m,k}}.

At x=q1/2x=q^{1/2} and x=q3/2x=q^{3/2}, the identity yields the two Rogers–Ramanujan identities. It is proposed after computations in the framing-τ=1\tau=1 case and is connected to the unresolved positive-framing integrality problem.
