Character recurrences and level one formulas for $B_2^{(1)}$

We obtain recurrence relations for formal characters of Feigin-Stoyanovsky type subspaces of standard $B_2^{(1)}$-modules at fixed level. The recurrences are derived directly from the combinatorial bases described by difference and initial conditions. Unlike in type $A_{\mathrm{\ell }}^{(1)}$, the right side in general involves several shifted characters. We give explicit polynomial coefficients and prove that the resulting system, together with the constant term normalization, determines all formal characters at fixed level uniquely. At level $1$ we solve the recurrence system explicitly and obtain fermionic formulas for all three characters. We also relate these characters to the multigraded generating functions for exponent triples parametrizing the Meurman-Primc monomial basis of standard $A_1^{(1)}$-modules.
