Watson's Quintuple Product Identity
In mathematics the Watson quintuple product identity is an infinite product identity introduced by and rediscovered by and . It is analogous to the Jacobi triple product identity, and is the Macdonald identity for a certain non-reduced affine root system. It is related to Euler's pentagonal number theorem.

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Jacobi Triple Product Identity
In mathematics, the Jacobi triple product is the identity: :\prod_^\infty \left( 1 - x^\right) \left( 1 + x^ y^2\right) \left( 1 +\frac\right) = \sum_^\infty x^ y^, for complex numbers ''x'' and ''y'', with , ''x'', < 1 and ''y'' ≠ 0. It was introduced by in his work '' Fundamenta Nova Theoriae Functionum Ellipticarum''. The Jacobi triple product identity is the Macdonald identity for the affine root system of type ''A''1, and is the Weyl denominator formula for the corresponding affine Kac–Moody algebra. Properties Jacobi's proof relies on Euler's pentagonal number theorem, which is itself a specific case of the Jacobi triple product identity. Let x=q\sqrt q and y^2=-\sqrt. Then we have :\phi(q) = \prod_^\infty \left(1-q^m \right) = \sum_^\infty (-1)^n q^. The Rogers–Ramanujan identities follow with x=q^2\sqrt q, y^2=-\sqrt and x=q^2\sqrt q, y^2=-q\sqrt. The Jacobi Triple Product also allows the Jacobi theta function to be written as an infinite product as ...

Macdonald Identity
In mathematics, the Macdonald identities are some infinite product identities associated to affine root systems, introduced by . They include as special cases the Jacobi triple product identity, Watson's quintuple product identity, several identities found by , and a 10-fold product identity found by . and pointed out that the Macdonald identities are the analogs of the Weyl denominator formula for affine Kac–Moody algebra In mathematics, an affine Lie algebra is an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra that is constructed in a canonical fashion out of a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra. Given an affine Lie algebra, one can also form the associated affine Kac-Moody al ...s and superalgebras.

Affine Root System
In mathematics, an affine root system is a root system of affine-linear functions on a Euclidean space. They are used in the classification of affine Lie algebras and superalgebras, and semisimple ''p''-adic algebraic groups, and correspond to families of Macdonald polynomials. The reduced affine root systems were used by Kac and Moody in their work on Kac–Moody algebras. Possibly non-reduced affine root systems were introduced and classified by and (except that both these papers accidentally omitted the Dynkin diagram ). Definition Let ''E'' be an affine space and ''V'' the vector space of its translations. Recall that ''V'' acts faithfully and transitively on ''E''. In particular, if u,v \in E, then it is well defined an element in ''V'' denoted as u-v which is the only element w such that v+w=u. Now suppose we have a scalar product (\cdot,\cdot) on ''V''. This defines a metric on ''E'' as d(u,v)=\vert(u-v,u-v)\vert. Consider the vector space ''F'' of affine-linear fu ...

Pentagonal Number Theorem
In mathematics, Euler's pentagonal number theorem relates the product and series representations of the Euler function. It states that :\prod_^\left(1-x^\right)=\sum_^\left(-1\right)^x^=1+\sum_^\infty(-1)^k\left(x^+x^\right). In other words, :(1-x)(1-x^2)(1-x^3) \cdots = 1 - x - x^2 + x^5 + x^7 - x^ - x^ + x^ + x^ - \cdots. The exponents 1, 2, 5, 7, 12, ... on the right hand side are given by the formula for ''k'' = 1, −1, 2, −2, 3, ... and are called (generalized) pentagonal numbers . (The constant term 1 corresponds to k=0.) This holds as an identity of convergent power series for , x,  ''s'', take the rightmost 45-degree line and move it to form a new row, as in the matching diagram below. : If m ≤ s (as in our newly formed diagram where ''m'' = 2, ''s'' = 5) we may reverse the process by moving the bottom row to form a new 45 degree line (adding 1 element to each of the first ''m'' rows), taking us back to the first diagram. A bit of thought shows that this ...

Proceedings Of The London Mathematical Society
The London Mathematical Society (LMS) is one of the United Kingdom's learned societies for mathematics (the others being the Royal Statistical Society (RSS), the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), the Edinburgh Mathematical Society and the Operational Research Society (ORS). History The Society was established on 16 January 1865, the first president being Augustus De Morgan. The earliest meetings were held in University College, but the Society soon moved into Burlington House, Piccadilly. The initial activities of the Society included talks and publication of a journal. The LMS was used as a model for the establishment of the American Mathematical Society in 1888. Mary Cartwright was the first woman to be President of the LMS (in 1961–62). The Society was granted a royal charter in 1965, a century after its foundation. In 1998 the Society moved from rooms in Burlington House into De Morgan House (named after the society's first president), at 57–5 ...

Elliptic Functions
In the mathematical field of complex analysis, elliptic functions are special kinds of meromorphic functions, that satisfy two periodicity conditions. They are named elliptic functions because they come from elliptic integrals. Those integrals are in turn named elliptic because they first were encountered for the calculation of the arc length of an ellipse. Important elliptic functions are Jacobi elliptic functions and the Weierstrass \wp-function. Further development of this theory led to hyperelliptic functions and modular forms. Definition A meromorphic function is called an elliptic function, if there are two \mathbb- linear independent complex numbers \omega_1,\omega_2\in\mathbb such that : f(z + \omega_1) = f(z) and f(z + \omega_2) = f(z), \quad \forall z\in\mathbb. So elliptic functions have two periods and are therefore doubly periodic functions. Period lattice and fundamental domain If f is an elliptic function with periods \omega_1,\omega_2 it also holds ...

Theta Functions
In mathematics, theta functions are special functions of several complex variables. They show up in many topics, including Abelian varieties, moduli spaces, quadratic forms, and solitons. Theta functions are parametrized by points in a tube domain inside a complex Lagrangian Grassmannian, namely the Siegel upper half space. The most common form of theta function is that occurring in the theory of elliptic functions. With respect to one of the complex variables (conventionally called ), a theta function has a property expressing its behavior with respect to the addition of a period of the associated elliptic functions, making it a quasiperiodic function. In the abstract theory this quasiperiodicity comes from the cohomology class of a line bundle on a complex torus, a condition of descent. One interpretation of theta functions when dealing with the heat equation is that "a theta function is a special function that describes the evolution of temperature on a segment domain su ...

Mathematical Identities
In mathematics, an identity is an equality relating one mathematical expression ''A'' to another mathematical expression ''B'', such that ''A'' and ''B'' (which might contain some variables) produce the same value for all values of the variables within a certain domain of discourse. In other words, ''A'' = ''B'' is an identity if ''A'' and ''B'' define the same functions, and an identity is an equality between functions that are differently defined. For example, (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 and \cos^2\theta + \sin^2\theta =1 are identities. Identities are sometimes indicated by the triple bar symbol instead of , the equals sign. Formally, an identity is a universally quantified equality. Common identities Algebraic identities Certain identities, such as a+0=a and a+(-a)=0, form the basis of algebra, while other identities, such as (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab +b^2 and a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b), can be useful in simplifying algebraic expressions and expanding th ...
