We give a simple proof of the well-known quintuple product identity. The strategy of our proof is similar to a proof of Jacobi (ascribed to him by Enneper) for the triple product identity.

AbstractOne of Ramanujan's unpublished, unproven identities has excited considerable interest over the years.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.

AbstractA celebrated result, due to Jacobi, says that the number of representations of the positive integer n as a sum of four squares is equal to eight times the sum of the divisors of n which are not divisible by 4. We give a new and simple proof of this result which depends only on Jacobi's triple product identity.

It is well known that `Ramanujan's remarkable summation formula' unifies and generalizes the $q$-binomial theorem and the triple product identity and has numerous applications. In this note we will demonstrate how, after a suitable transformation of the series side, it can be looked upon as a $2$-parameter generalization of the quintuple product identity also.

We give a new form of the quintuple product identity. As a direct application of this new form a simple proof of known identities of Ramanujan and also new identities for other well known continued fractions are given. We also give and prove a general identity for (q3m; q3m)?.

We give a bijective proof of the quintuple product identity using bijective proofs of Jacobi's triple product identity and Euler's recurrence relation.

In this note we observe an interesting fact that the well-known quintuple product identity can be regarded as a special case of the celebrated 1ψ1 summation formula of Ramanujan which is known to unify the Jacobi triple product identity and the q -binomial theorem.
