Kanade–Russell's cylindric partition profile conjecture

From papers

Let k3k\geq 3, let c=(c1,c2,c3)c=(c_1,c_2,c_3) be a cylindric partition profile with c+3=m=3k+{1,0,1}|c|+3=m=3k+\{-1,0,1\}, and, using cyclic symmetries, assume c1c2,c3c_1\geq c_2,c_3. Let H(c1,c2,c3)(z,q)H_{(c_1,c_2,c_3)}(z,q) denote the associated generating function, and let eie_i and δi\delta_i be the vectors defined by

ei=(0,0,,0i,1,1,,1),δi=(δij)1jk1.e_i=(\underbrace{0,0,\dots,0}_{i},1,1,\dots,1),\qquad \delta_i=(\delta_{ij})_{1\leq j\leq k-1}.

For m{3k1,3k,3k+1}m\in\{3k-1,3k,3k+1\}, let Sm(z;ρσ)S_m(z;\rho\mid\sigma) be the corresponding multiple-sum functions defined for integer vectors ρ,σZk1\rho,\sigma\in\mathbb Z^{k-1}. Kanade–Russell's conjecture. If c2,c3k1c_2,c_3\leq k-1, then

H(c1,c2,c3)(z,q)={Sm(z;ec2ec3)qSm(z;ec21ec31),c2,c3>0,§m(z;ec2e0),c3=0,§m(z;e0ec3)q(1z)Sm(z;e0+δ0ec31),c2=0, c30.H_{(c_1,c_2,c_3)}(z,q)=\begin{cases}S_m(z;e_{c_2}\mid e_{c_3})-qS_m(z;e_{c_2-1}\mid e_{c_3-1}),&c_2,c_3>0,\S_m(z;e_{c_2}\mid e_0),&c_3=0,\S_m(z;e_0\mid e_{c_3})-q(1-z)S_m(z;e_0+\delta_0\mid e_{c_3-1}),&c_2=0,\ c_3\ne0. \end{cases}

This is the principal cylindric Kanade–Russell conjecture for the three-part profiles; the paper develops proofs for the modulo 1111 and 1313 cases, while the general fixed-kk assertion is the conjectural framework motivating those results.
