Kirillov–Reshetikhin character conjecture for quantum affine algebras

Let XnX_n be a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra of classical or exceptional type, let Wm(a)W_m^{(a)} denote the Kirillov–Reshetikhin module associated with node aa and positive integer mm, and let Qm(a)Q_m^{(a)} be the corresponding solution of the QQ-system. Write chWm(a)\operatorname{ch} W_m^{(a)} for its character. For classical XnX_n, the Qm(a)Q_m^{(a)} are given by the character formulas in the displayed identities (a1)–(d1); for arbitrary XnX_n, they are given by the expansion in (qexp1), where Pk(b)P_k^{(b)} and Nλ\mathcal{N}_\lambda are as defined there. Kirillov–Reshetikhin conjecture. (i) For any classical XnX_n, chWm(a)\operatorname{ch} W_m^{(a)} equals the corresponding right-hand sides of (a1)–(d1). (ii) For any XnX_n, chWm(a)\operatorname{ch} W_m^{(a)} equals the right-hand side of (qexp1). (iii) For any XnX_n, the characters chWm(a)\operatorname{ch} W_m^{(a)} satisfy relation (Q-I) with each Qm(a)Q_m^{(a)} replaced by chWm(a)\operatorname{ch} W_m^{(a)}. The modules were originally claimed to exist without identification of their Drinfeld polynomials. The conjecture had been completely proved in the literature for AnA_n and DnD_n; for classical types, parts (i) and (ii) are equivalent and (iii) follows from (i).
