In this paper Euler considers the properties of the pentagonal numbers, those numbers of the form $\frac{3n^2 \pm n}{2}$. He recalls that the infinite product $(1-x)(1-x^2)(1-x^3)...$ expands into an infinite series with exponents the…
In 2012, Andrews and Merca proved a truncated theorem on Euler's pentagonal number theorem, which opened up a new study on truncated theta series. In particular, some truncated versions of a identity of Gauss have been proved. In this…

By using various expansions of the parametric digamma function and the method of residue computations, we study three variants of the linear Euler sums, related Hoffman's double $t$-values and Kaneko-Tsumura's double $T$-values, and…
I revisit an automated proof of Andrews' pentagonal number theorem found by Riese. I uncover a simple polynomial identity hidden behind his proof. I explain how to use this identity to prove Andrews' result along with a variety of new…
We show that each member of a doubly infinite sequence of highly nonlinear expressions of Bernoulli polynomials, which can be seen as linear combinations of certain higher-order convolutions, is a multiple of a specific product of linear…
