We give two new proofs of Winquist's identity. In the first proof, we use basic properties of cube roots of unity and the Jacobi triple product identity. The latter does not use the Jacobi triple product identity.

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.

AbstractBy means of Liouville's theorem, we show that Euler's pentagonal number theorem implies the Jacobi triple product identity.

We derive the general series-product identities from which we deduce several applications, including an identity of Gauss, the generalization of Winquist's identity by Carlitz and Subbarao, an identity for [Formula: see text], the quintuple product identity, and the octuple product identity.

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.
