Certain bibasic hypergeometric transformation formulae and their application to Rogers-Ramanujan identities (Q1917985)

The author uses the Bailey transform to derive two very general bibasic hypergometric transformation formulae from which it is possible to derive many different Rogers-Ramanujan-type identities. One of the many examples is \[ \begin{multlined} (-q; q)_\infty \sum_{n, m_1, \dots, m_{k-3} \geq 0} {q^{3M^2_1+M^2_2+\cdots+M^2_{k-3}+2n^2+M_1+\cdots+M_{k-3}+4nM_1} \over (q^2; q^2 )_n (q;q)_{m_1} \cdots (q;q)_{m_{k-3}} (- q;q)_{2n+2M_1+1}} \\=\prod_{{n=1 \atop n \not \equiv 0, \pm 3 \pmod {2k+1}}} (1-q^n)^{-1}-q \prod_{{n=1 \atop n \not \equiv 0, \pm 1 \pmod {2k+1}}} (1-q^n)^{-1}. \end{multlined} \] {}.
