Bailey pair

Bailey pair

In mathematics, a Bailey pair is a pair of sequences satisfying certain relations, and a Bailey chain is a sequence of Bailey pairs. Bailey pairs were introduced by harvs|txt|first=W. N. |last=Bailey|authorlink=Wilfrid Norman Bailey|year1=1947|year2=1948 while studyingthe second proof harvtxt|Rogers|1917 of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, and Bailey chains were introduced by harvtxt|Andrews|1984.

Definition

The q-Pochhammer symbols (a;q)_n are defined as:

:(a;q)_n = prod_{0le j

A pair of sequences (α"n",β"n") is called a Bailey pair if they are related by:eta_n=sum_{r=0}^nfrac{alpha_r}{(q;q)_{n-r}(aq;q)_{n+ror equivalently:alpha_n = (1-aq^{2n})sum_{j=0}^nfrac{(aq;q)_{n+j-1}(-1)^{n-j}q^{n-jchoose 2}eta_j}{(q;q)_{n-j.

Bailey's lemma

Bailey's lemma states that if (α"n",β"n") is a Bailey pair, then so is(α'"n",β'"n") where:alpha^prime_n= frac{( ho_1;q)_n( ho_2;q)_n(aq/ ho_1 ho_2)^nalpha_n}{(aq/ ho_1;q)_n(aq/ ho_2;q)_n}:eta^prime_n = sum_{jge0}frac{( ho_1;q)_j( ho_2;q)_j(aq/ ho_1 ho_2;q)_{n-j}(aq/ ho_1 ho_2)^jeta_j}{(q;q)_{n-j}(aq/ ho_1;q)_n(aq/ ho_2;q)_n}.In other words, given one Bailey pair, one can construct a second using the formulas above. This process can be iterated to produce an infinite sequence of Bailey pairs, called a Bailey chain.

Examples

An example of a Bailey pair is given by harv|Andrews|Askey|Roy|1999|loc=p. 590:alpha_n = q^{n^2+n}sum_{j=-n}^n(-1)^jq^{-j^2}, quad eta_n = frac{(-q)^n}{(q^2;q^2)_n}.

harvs|txt|first=L. J. |last=Slater|authorlink=L. J. Slater|year=1952 gave a list of 130 examples related to Bailey pairs.
