Has the function $$(z;q_1,q_2)_\infty := \prod_{n_1,n_2=0}^\infty (1-z \, q_1^{n_1} q_2^{n_2}), \quad |q_1|,|q_2|<1$$ been studied in the math literature? For example, does it obey any difference ...

The $q$-analogue of an integer $m$ is defined by $[m]_q=(1-q^m)/(1-q)$. Note that $\lim_{q\to1}[m]_q=m$. I have formulated the following conjecture on determinants involving the floor function and the ...

Background Recall that the $q$-analogue $[n]_q\in\mathbb Z[q]$ of a natural number $n\in\mathbb N$ is defined as $$ [n]_q := \frac{q^n -1}{q-1}$$ the idea being that formulas involving $q$ will ...

Recall that $(a;\,q)_\infty$ is the $q$-Pochhammer symbol: $$(a;\,q)_\infty=\prod_{n=0}^\infty(1-a \, q^n).\tag1$$ Its important special case $(q;\,q)_\infty=\prod_{n=1}^\infty(1-q^n)$ is sometimes ...

First of all my apologies if this question is well known or obvious: this is not in my area of research. Let $T(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty t_nx^n$, where $t_n$ is the number of partitions $\lambda$ of $n$ ...

There have been a couple of questions on Ramanujan's $\tau$ function. Lehmer's conjecture for Ramanujan's tau function The Vanishing of Ramanujan's Function tau(n) A $q$-analogue is given ...
