Abstract
In this paper, we gives new uniform proofs of the quintuple product identity, the septuple product
identity and other
q
-series-product identities.
Some properties of roots of unity and the Jacobi triple product
identity are used to complete the proofs.
Keywords
: Jacobi triple product identity, Quintuple product identity, Septuple product identity, Winquist’s
identity
