Abstract

A (k - 1)-fold Eulerian series expansion is given for II(1 - qn)-1, where the product runs over all positive integers n that are not congruent to 0,i or - i modulo 2k + 1. The Rogers-Ramanujan identities are the cases k = i = 2 and k = i + 1 = 2.

Keywords: basic hypergeometric series, partitions, combinational identities, partition identities
