Recently, Schlosser and Zhou proposed many conjectures on sign patterns of the coefficients appearing in the $q$-series expansions of the infinite Borwein product and other infinite products raised to a real power. In this paper, we will…

We denote by $c_t^{(m)}(n)$ the coefficient of $q^n$ in the series expansion of $(q;q)_\infty^m(q^t;q^t)_\infty^{-m}$, which is the $m$-th power of the infinite Borwein product. Let $t$ and $m$ be positive integers with $m(t-1)\leq 24$. We…

We obtain asymptotic formulas for sums over arithmetic progressions of coefficients of polynomials of the form $$\prod_{j=1}^n\prod_{k=1}^{p-1}(1-q^{pj-k})^s,$$ where $p$ is an odd prime and $n, s$ are positive integers. Let us denote by…

The celebrated (First) Borwein Conjecture predicts that for all positive integers~$n$ the sign pattern of the coefficients of the ``Borwein polynomial'' $$(1-q)(1-q^2)(1-q^4)(1-q^5) \cdots(1-q^{3n-2})(1-q^{3n-1})$$ is $+--+--\cdots$. It was…

Let $(m_1,\ldots,m_J)$ and $(r_1,\ldots,r_J)$ be two sequences of $J$ positive integers satisfying $1\le r_j< m_j$ for all $j=1,\ldots,J$. Let $(\delta_1,\ldots,\delta_J)$ be a sequence of $J$ nonzero integers. In this paper, we study the…

The signs of Fourier coefficients of certain eta quotients are determined by dissecting expansions for theta functions and by applying a general dissection formula for certain classes of quintuple products. A characterization is given for…

We show that the series expansions of certain $q$-products have \textit{matching coefficients} with their reciprocals. Several of the results are associated to Ramanujan's continued fractions. For example, let $R(q)$ denote the…

Andrews and Bressoud, Alladi and Gordon, and others, have proven, in a number of papers, that the coefficients in various arithmetic progressions in the series expansions of certain infinite $q$-products vanish. In the present paper it is…

For all integers $n\geq1$, let \begin{align*} W_n(p,q)=\prod_{j=1}^{n}\left\{e^{-p/j}\left(1+\frac{p}{j}+\frac{q}{j^2}\right)\right\} \end{align*} and \begin{align*} R_n(p,…

Any power series with unit constant term can be factored into an infinite product of the form $\prod_{n\geq 1} (1-q^n)^{-a_n}$. We give direct formulas for the exponents $a_n$ in terms of the coefficients of the power series, and vice…

For an arbitrary positive integer $p$, Landen's formula is extended to express theta function with modulus $p\tau$ by $p$ product of theta functions with $\tau$, which is applied to several examples. Next it is shown that double product of…

A conjecture of Borwein asserts that for any positive integers $n$ and $k$, the coefficient $a_{3k}$ of $q^{3k}$ in the expansion of $\prod_{j=0}^n (1-q^{3j+1})(1-q^{3j+2})$ is nonnegative. In this paper we prove that for any $0 \leq k\leq…

We express the $q$-Pochhammer symbol $(z;q)_\infty$ as an infinite product of gamma functions, analogously to how Narukawa expressed the elliptic gamma function as an infinite product of hyperbolic gamma functions. This identity is used to…

We study the asymptotics for the Fourier coefficients of a broad class of eta-quotients, $$\prod_{r=1}^R \left(\prod_{k\ge 1}\left(1-q^{m_r k}\right)\right)^{\delta_r},$$ where $m_1,\ldots,m_R$ are $R$ distinct positive integers and…

In this paper, we investigate several infinite products with vanishing Taylor coefficients in arihmetic progressions. These infinite products are closely related to the Rogers--Ramanujan continued fraction. Moreover, a handful of new…

Let $D$ be an open disk of radius $\le 1$ in $\mathbb C$, and let $(\epsilon_n)$ be a sequence of $\pm 1$. We prove that for every analytic function $f: D \to \mathbb C$ without zeros in $D$, there exists a unique sequence $(\alpha_n)$ of…

We study the behavior of the signs of the coefficients of certain infinite products involving the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction. For example, if $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}A(n)q^{n}:=…

$q$-Analogues of the coefficients of $x^a$ in the expansion of $\prod_{j=1}^N (1+x+...+x^j)^{L_j}$ are proposed. Useful properties, such as recursion relations, symmetries and limiting theorems of the ``$q$-supernomial coefficients'' are…

What are the asymptotic moments of coefficients obtained when expanding prod_{m=1}^infty (1-q^m)^k in series? A few examples are given, as well as a new multiplicative representation for coefficients when k=10 and k=14.

In this paper, we study algebraic and analytic properties of Fourier coefficients, expressed as $q$-series, of the so-called Bloch-Okounkov $n$-point function. We prove several results about these series and explain how they relate to…
