Jacobi's Identity and Synchronized Partitions

Touchard-Riordan formulas, T-fractions, and Jacobi's triple product identity

Touchard-Riordan-like formulas are some expressions appearing in enumeration problems and as moments of orthogonal polynomials. We begin this article with a new combinatorial approach to prove these kind of formulas, related with integer partitions. This gives a new perspective on the original result of Touchard and Riordan. But the main goal is to give a combinatorial proof of a Touchard-Riordan--like formula for q-secant numbers discovered by the first author. An interesting limit case of these objects can be directly interpreted in terms of partitions, so that we obtain a connection between…

Jacobi identity in polyhedral products

We show that a relation among minimal non-faces of a fillable complex $K$ yields an identity of iterated (higher) Whitehead products in a polyhedral product over $K$. In particular, for the $(n-1)$-skeleton of a simplicial $n$-sphere, we always have such an identity, and for the $(n-1)$-skeleton of a $(n+1)$-simplex, the identity is the Jacobi identity of Whitehead products ($n=1$) and Hardie's identity of higher Whitehead products ($n\ge 2$).

Abel-Rothe type generalizations of Jacobi's triple product identity

Using a simple classical method we derive bilateral series identities from terminating ones. In particular, we show how to deduce Ramanujan's 1-psi-1 summation from the q-Pfaff-Saalschuetz summation. Further, we apply the same method to our previous q-Abel-Rothe summation to obtain, for the first time, Abel-Rothe type generalizations of Jacobi's triple product identity. We also give some results for multiple series.

Generalized Schur function determinants using the Bazin identity

In the literature there are several determinant formulas for Schur functions: the Jacobi-Trudi formula, the dual Jacobi-Trudi formula, the Giambelli formula, the Lascoux-Pragacz formula, and the Hamel-Goulden formula, where the Hamel-Goulden formula implies the others. In this paper we use an identity proved by Bazin in 1851 to derive determinant identities involving Macdonald's 9th variation of Schur functions. As an application we prove a determinant identity for factorial Schur functions conjectured by Morales, Pak, and Panova. We also obtain a generalization of the Hamel-Goulden formula, w…

Vertex operators arising from Jacobi-Trudi identities

We give an interpretation of the boson-fermion correspondence as a direct consequence of Jacobi-Trudi identity. This viewpoint enables us to construct from a generalized version of the Jacobi-Trudi identity the action of Clifford algebra on polynomial algebras that arrives as analogues of the algebra of symmetric functions. A generalized Giambelli identity is also proved to follow from that identity. As applications, we obtain explicit formulas for vertex operators corresponding to characters of the classical Lie algebras, shifted Schur functions, and generalized Schur symmetric functions asso…

Tiling proofs of Jacobi triple product and Rogers-Ramanujan identities

We use the method of tiling to give elementary combinatorial proofs of some celebrated $q$-series identities, such as Jacobi triple product identity, Rogers-Ramanujan identities, and some identities of Rogers. We give a tiling proof of the q-binomial theorem and a tiling interpretation of the q-binomial coefficients. A new generalized $ k $-product $q$-series identity is also obtained by employing the `tiling-method', wherein the generating function of the set of all possible tilings of a rectangular board is computed in two different ways to obtain the desired $q$-series identity. Several new…

Two generalizations of Jacobi's derivative formula

In this paper we generalize the famous Jacobi's triple product identity, considered as an identity for theta functions with characteristics and their derivatives, to higher genus/dimension. By applying the results and methods developed in our previous paper math.AG/0310085 several generalizations to Siegel modular forms are obtained. These generalizations are identities satisfied by theta functions with characteristics and their derivatives at zero. Equating the coefficients of the Fourier expansion of these relations to zero yields non-trivial combinatorial identities.

Multi-dimensional $q$-summations and multi-colored partitions

Motivated by Alladi's recent multi-dimensional generalization of Sylvester's classical identity, we provide a simple combinatorial proof of an overpartition analogue, which contains extra parameters tracking the numbers of overlined parts of different colors. This new identity encompasses a handful of classical results as special cases, such as Cauchy's identity, and the product expressions of three classical theta functions studied by Gauss, Jacobi and Ramanujan.

Short Proofs of Summation and Transformation Formulas for Basic Hypergeometric Series

We show that several terminating summation and transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series can be proved in a straightforward way. Along the same line, new finite forms of Jacobi's triple product identity and Watson's quintuple product identity are also proved.

A comment of the combinatorics of the vertex operator $Γ_{(t|X)}$

The Jacobi--Trudi identity associates a symmetric function to any integer sequence. Let $Γ_{(t|X)}$ be the vertex operator defined by $Γ_{(t|X)} s_α=\sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} s_{(n,α)} [X] t^n$. We provide a combinatorial proof for the identity $Γ_{(t|X)} s_α= σ[tX] s_α\big[x-1/t\big] $ due to Thibon et al. We include an overview of all the combinatorial ideas behind this beautiful identity, including a combinatorial description for the expansion of $s_{(n,α)} [X] $ in the Schur basis, for any integer value of $n$.

A double bounded key identity for Goellnitz's (big) partition theorem

Given integers i,j,k,L,M, we establish a new double bounded q-series identity from which the three parameter (i,j,k) key identity of Alladi-Andrews-Gordon for Goellnitz's (big) theorem follows if L, M tend to infinity. When L = M, the identity yields a strong refinement of Goellnitz's theorem with a bound on the parts given by L. This is the first time a bounded version of Goellnitz's (big) theorem has been proved. This leads to new bounded versions of Jacobi's triple product identity for theta functions and other fundamental identities.

A computer proof of a polynomial identity implying a partition theorem of Goellnitz

In this paper we give a computer proof of a new polynomial identity, which extends a recent result of Alladi and the first author. In addition, we provide computer proofs for new finite analogs of Jacobi and Euler formulas. All computer proofs are done with the aid of the new computer algebra package qMultiSum developed by the second author. qMultiSum implements an algorithmic refinement of Wilf and Zeilberger's multi-q-extension of Sister Celine's technique utilizing additional ideas of Verbaeten and Wegschaider.

A new four parameter q-series identity and its partition implications

We prove a new four parameter q-hypergeometric series identity from which the three parameter key identity for the Goellnitz theorem due to Alladi, Andrews, and Gordon, follows as a special case by setting one of the parameters equal to 0. The new identity is equivalent to a four parameter partition theorem which extends the deep theorem of Goellnitz and thereby settles a problem raised by Andrews thirty years ago. Some consequences including a quadruple product extension of Jacobi's triple product identity, and prospects of future research are briefly discussed.

Combinatorial Telescoping for an Identity of Andrews on Parity in Partitions

Following the method of combinatorial telescoping for alternating sums given by Chen, Hou and Mu, we present a combinatorial telescoping approach to partition identities on sums of positive terms. By giving a classification of the combinatorial objects corresponding to a sum of positive terms, we establish bijections that lead a telescoping relation. We illustrate this idea by giving a combinatorial telescoping relation for a classical identity of MacMahon. Recently, Andrews posed a problem of finding a combinatorial proof of an identity on the q-little Jacobi polynomials which was derived bas…
