q-SeriesA Series involving coefficients of the form
(Andrews 1986). The symbols
are sometimes also used when discussing -series. There are a great many beautiful identities involving -series, some of which follow directly by taking theq-Analog of standard combinatorial identities, e.g., the q-Binomial Theorem

( , ; Andrews 1986, p. 10) and q-Vandermonde Sum

where is a Heine Hypergeometric Series. Other -series identities, e.g., the Jacobi Identities,Rogers-Ramanujan Identities, and Heine Hypergeometric Series identity
