Andrews and Merca investigated a truncated version of Euler's pentagonal number theorem and showed that the coefficients of the truncated series are nonnegative. They also considered the truncated series arising from Jacobi's triple product identity, and they conjectured that its coefficients are nonnegative. This conjecture was posed by Guo and Zeng independently and confirmed by Mao and Yee using different approaches. In this paper, we provide a new combinatorial proof of their nonnegativity result related to Euler's pentagonal number theorem. Meanwhile, we find an analogous result for a truncated series arising from Jacobi's triple product identity in a different manner.

A sextuple-product identity, which essentially results from squaring the classical Gauss-Jacobi triple-product identity, is used to derive two trigonometrical identities. Several special cases of these identities are then presented and discussed.

AbstractOne of Ramanujan's unpublished, unproven identities has excited considerable interest over the years. Indeed, no fewer than four proofs have appeared in the literature. The object of this note is to present yet another proof, simpler than the others, relying only on Jacobi's triple product identity.
