Abstract
We obtain a new -analogue of the classical Leibniz series , namely \begin{equation*} \sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{(-1)^kq^{k(k+3)/2}}{1-q^{2k+1}}=\frac{(q^2;q^2)_{\infty}(q^8;q^8)_{\infty}}{(q;q^2)_{\infty}(q^4;q^8)_{\infty}}, \end{equation*} where is a complex number with . We also show that the Zeilberger-type series has two -analogues with , one of which is
