In this article we introduce a new approach to compute infinite products defined by automatic sequences involving the Thue-Morse sequence. As examples, for any positive integers $q$ and $r$ such that $0 \leq r \leq q-1$, we find infinitely…
Letting $(t_n)$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $0, 1$, we note that the Woods-Robbins product $$ \prod_{n \geq 0} \left(\frac{2n+1}{2n+2}\right)^{(-1)^{t_n}} = 2^{-1/2} $$ involves a rational function in $n$ and the $\pm 1$…
Let $(u_n)_{n\ge 0}$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $\pm 1$. The Woods-Robbins identity below and several of its generalisations are well-known in the literature…
Infinite products associated with the $\pm 1$ Thue-Morse sequence whose value is rational or algebraic irrational have been studied by several authors. In this short note we prove three new infinite product identities involving ${\pi}$,…
Taking the product of (2n+1)/(2n+2) raised to the power +1 or -1 according to the n-th term of the Thue-Morse sequence gives rise to an infinite product P while replacing (2n+1)/(2n+2) with (2n)/(2n+1) yields an infinite product Q, where P…
We consider a Laurent series defined by infinite products $g_u(t) = \prod_{n=0}^\infty (1 + ut^{-2^n})$, where $u\in \mathbb{F}$ is a parameter and $\mathbb{F}$ is a field. We show that for all $u\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$ the series…
Convergent infinite products, indexed by all natural numbers, in which each factor is a rational function of the index, can always be evaluated in terms of finite products of gamma functions. This goes back to Euler. A purpose of this note…
The Thue--Morse sequence $t=01101001\cdots$ is an automatic sequence over the alphabet $\{0,1\}$. It can be defined as the binary sum-of-digits function $s:\mathbb N\rightarrow\mathbb N$, reduced modulo $2$, or by using the substitution…
One of the fundamental theorems of uniform distribution theory states that the fractional parts of the sequence $(n \alpha)_{n \geq 1}$ are uniformly distributed modulo one (u.d. mod 1) for every irrational number $\alpha$. Another…
The Thue--Morse sequence $\{t(n)\}_{n\geqslant 1}$ is the indicator function of the parity of the number of ones in the binary expansion of positive integers $n$, where $t(n)=1$ (resp. $=0$) if the binary expansion of $n$ has an odd (resp.…
Let $q=e^{2\pi i\tau}$, $\Im\tau>0$, $x=e^{2\pi i\xi}\in\CC$ and $(x;q)_\infty=\prod_{n\ge 0}(1-xq^n)$. Let $(q,x)\mapsto(q^*,\iota_q x)$ be the classical modular substitution given by $q^*=e^{-2\pi i/\tau}$ and $\iota_q x=e^{2\pi…
Let $(t_n)_{n\ge0}$ be the well konwn $\pm1$ Thue-Morse sequence $$+1,-1,-1,+1,-1,+1,+1,-1,\cdots.$$ Since the 1982-1983 work of Coquet and Dekking, it is known that $\sum_{k<n}t_ke^\frac{2k\pi i}{3}$ is strongly related to the famous Koch…
Let $p(x) \in C(x)$ be a rational function satisfying the condition $p(0)=1$ and $q$ an integer larger than $1$, in this article we will consider the power expansion of the infinite product…
Recently, Ono and the third author discovered that the reciprocals of the theta series $(q;q)_\infty^3$ and $(q^2;q^2)_\infty(q;q^2)_\infty^2$ have infinitely many closed formulas in terms of MacMahon's quasimodular forms $A_k(q)$ and…
We provide a non-trivial measure of irrationality for a class of Mahler numbers defined with infinite products which cover the Thue-Morse constant.
In this note we prove that for every sequence $(m_q)_{q}$ of positive integers and for every real $0<\delta\leqslant1$ there is a sequence $(n_q)_{q}$ of positive integers such that for every sequence $(H_q)_{q}$ of finite sets such that…
We state and prove product formulae for several generating functions for sequences $(a_n)_{n\ge0}$ that are defined by the property that $Pa_n+b^2$ is a square, where $P$ and $b$ are given integers. In particular, we prove corresponding…
The pair correlations of the Thue--Morse sequence and system are revisited, with focus on asymptotic results on various means. First, it is shown that all higher-order correlations of the Thue--Morse sequence with general real weights are…
The main goal of this paper is to give a modular type representation for the infinite product $(1-x)(1-xq)(1-xq^2)(1-xq^3)...$. It is shown that this representation essentially contains the well-known modular formulae either for Dedekind's…
