$q$-analogue of the multinomial theorem?

The $q$-binomial theorem states that $$ \prod_{k=0}^{n-1}(1+q^kt) = \sum_{k=0}^n q^{\binom k2}{n\brack k}_q t^k. $$ This identity is a $q$-analogue of the binomial theorem $$ (1+t)^n = \sum_{k=0}^n \...

"Convolving" a general Catalan with classical Catalan

Consider what is sometimes known as generalized Catalan sequence $$\mathcal{{\color{red}C}}_{a,b}:=\frac{2b+1}{a+b+1}\binom{2a}{a+b}.$$ Observe that $\mathcal{{\color{red}C}}_{n,0}$ reduces to the ...
