We present a new proof of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Surprisingly, all its ingredients are available already in Rogers seminal paper from 1894, where he gave a considerably more complicated proof.

Recently, Rosengren utilized an integral method to prove a number of conjectural identities found by Kanade and Russell. Using this integral method, we give new proofs to some double sum identities of Rogers-Ramanujan type. These identities…

The Rogers-Ramanujan identities are investigated using the Cauchy identity for Schur functions.

Presented are polynomial identities which imply generalizations of Euler and Rogers--Ramanujan identities. Both sides of the identities can be interpreted as generating functions of certain restricted partitions. We prove the identities by…

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…

Using a pair of two variable series-product identities recorded by Ramanujan in the lost notebook as inspiration, we find some new identities of similar type. Each identity immediately implies an infinite family of Rogers-Ramanujan type…

We prove a number of new Rogers-Ramanujan type identities involving double, triple and quadruple sums. They were discovered after an extensive search using Maple. The main idea of proofs is to reduce them to some known identities in the…

In this survey article, we present an expanded version of Lucy Slater's famous list of identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type, including identities of similar type, which were discovered after the publication of Slater's papers, and older…

An identity by Ramanujan is expressed using polar coordinates, so that its proof reduces to the verification of an elementary trigonometric identity. This approach produces a few variations on Ramanujan's original identity.

Refinements of the classical Rogers-Ramanujan identities are given in which some parts are weighted. Combinatorial interpretations refining MacMahon's results are corollaries.

We use an integral method to establish a number of Rogers-Ramanujan type identities involving double and triple sums. The key step for proving such identities is to find some infinite products whose integrals over suitable contours are…

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 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.

We describe three computer searches (in PARI/GP, Maple, and Mathematica, respectively) which led to the discovery of a number of identities of Rogers-Ramanujan type and identities of false theta functions.

We establish some new bilateral double-sum Rogers-Ramanujan identities involving parameters. As applications, these identities yield several new multi-sum Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. Our proofs utilize the theory of basic…

In this we paper we prove several new identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan-Slater type. These identities were found as the result of computer searches. The proofs involve a variety of techniques, including series-series identities, Bailey…

We prove two partition identities which are dual to the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. These identities are inspired by (and proved using) a correspondence between three kinds of objects: a new type of partitions (neighborly partitions),…

It is shown that (two-variable generalizations of) more than half of Slater's list of 130 Rogers-Ramanujan identities (L. J. Slater, Further identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type, \emph{Proc. London Math Soc. (2)} \textbf{54} (1952),…

We derive by analytic means a number of bilateral identities of the Rogers--Ramanujan type. Our results include bilateral extensions of the Rogers--Ramanujan and the G\"ollnitz-Gordon identities, and of related identities by Ramanujan,…

We give simple elementary proofs of Bressoud's and Schur's polynomial versions of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities
