Multi-Grounded Partitions and Character Formulas

Abstract. We introduce a new generalisation of partitions, multi-grounded partitions, related to ground state paths indexed by dominant weights of Lie algebras. We use these to express characters of irreducible highest weight modules of Kac-Moody algebras of affine type as generating functions for multi-grounded partitions, and obtain new non-specialised character formulas.
