The periodicity of the signs of the coefficients of certain infinite products

Song Heng Chan and Hamza Yesilyurt

Vol. 225 (2006), No. 1, 13–32
Abstract

Ramanujan, Richmond and Szekeres, Ramanathan, Andrews, Hirschhorn, Alladi and Berndt, and Bressoud have studied certain infinite products arising from continued fractions from the point of view of the periodicity of the signs of their Taylor series coefficients. In this paper we prove more general theorems of the same sort.

Keywords
