Description
In this talk, I will discuss three classical infinite products arising from specializations of characters in type A_1^{(1)} at levels 1, 2, and 3. I will present new infinite sum expressions in levels 1 and 2, obtained by computing the major index statistic on Yamanouchi words. I will also present a new bijective proof at level 2 for the infinite sum expression found by Dousse, Hardiman and Konan, using perfect crystals. This is joint work with Jihyeug Jang.
