We state and prove a number of unilateral and bilateral $q$-series identities and explore some of their consequences. Those include certain generalizations of the $q$-binomial sum which also generalize the $q$-Airy function introduced by…

We find a $q$-analog of the following symmetrical identity involving binomial coefficients $\binom{n}{m}$ and Eulerian numbers $A_{n,m}$, due to Chung, Graham and Knuth [{\it J. Comb.}, {\bf 1} (2010), 29--38]: {equation*} \sum_{k\geq…

We prove some symmetric $q$-congruences.

We provide finite analogs of a pair of two-variable $q$-series identities from Ramanujan's lost notebook and a companion identity.

We present a method for proving q-series identities by combinatorial telescoping, in the sense that one can transform a bijection or a classification of combinatorial objects into a telescoping relation. We shall illustrate this method by…

We give "hybrid" proofs of the $q$-binomial theorem and other identities. The proofs are "hybrid" in the sense that we use partition arguments to prove a restricted version of the theorem, and then use analytic methods (in the form of the…

Bhoria, Eyyunni and Maji recently obtained a four-parameter $q$-series identity which gives as special cases not only all five entries of Ramanujan on pages 354 and 355 of his second notebook but also allows them to obtain an analytical…

In this work, we start an investigation of asymmetric Rogers--Ramanujan type identities. The first object is the following unexpected relation $$\sum_{n\ge 0} \frac{(-1)^n q^{3\binom{n}{2}+4n}(q;q^3)_n}{(q^9;q^9)_n} =…

Many classical $q$-series identities, such as the Rogers--Ramanujan identities, yield combinatorial interpretations in terms of integer partitions. Here we consider algebraically manipulating some of the classical $q$-series to yield…

We deduce new q-series identities by applying inverse relations to certain identities for basic hypergeometric series. The identities obtained themselves do not belong to the hierarchy of basic hypergeometric series. We extend two of our…

We use the method of tiling to give elementary combinatorial proofs of some celebrated $q$-series identities, such as Jacobi triple product identity, Rogers-Ramanujan identities, and some identities of Rogers. We give a tiling proof of the…

We provide combinatorial proofs of some of the q-series identities considered by Andrews, Jimenez-Urroz and Ono [q-series identities and values of certain $L$-functions. Duke Math. J. 108 (2001), no. 3, 395--419].

Ramanujan recorded five interesting q-series identities in a section that is not as systematically arranged as the other chapters of his second notebook. These five identities do not seem to have acquired enough attention. Recently, Dixit…

We generalize the "motivated proof" of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities given by Andrews and Baxter to provide an analogous "motivated proof" of Gordon's generalization of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Our main purpose is to provide…

We give a combinatorial proof of the first Rogers-Ramanujan identity by using two symmetries of a new generalization of Dyson's rank. These symmetries are established by direct bijections.

In this paper, we study some symmetric identities of q-Euler numbers and polynomials. From these properties, we derive several identities of q-Euler numbers and polynomials.

We highlight the role of q-series techniques in proving identities arising from knot theory. In particular, we prove Rogers-Ramanujan type identities for alternating knots as conjectured by Garoufalidis, Le and Zagier.

Ramanujan listed several q-series identities in his lost notebook. The most well known q-series identities are the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities which are first discovered by Rogers and then rediscovered by Ramanujan. In this paper, we…

We present outlines of a general method to reach certain kinds of $q$-multiple sum identities. Throughout our exposition, we shall give generalizations to the results given by Dilcher, Prodinger, Fu and Lascoux, Zeng, and Guo and Zhang…

We give an elementary proof of some identities that express the squares of Riemann zeta function at integer points in terms of the series involving hyperbolic functions, digamma function, Bernoulli numbers etc. In this version, inaccuracies…
