Multiplicative Partition Functions for Reverse Plane Partitions Derived from an Integrable Dynamical System

Abstract. In this paper we clarify a close connection between reverse plane partitions and an integrable dynamical system called the discrete two-dimensional (2D) Toda molecule. We show that a multiplicative partition function for reverse plane partitions of arbitrary shape with bounded parts can be obtained from each non-vanishing solution to the discrete 2D Toda molecule. As an example we derive a partition function which generalizes MacMahon's triple product formula and Gansner's multi-trace generating function from a specific solution to the discrete 2D Toda molecule.
