General Multi-sum Transformations and Some Implications

Abstract

We give two general transformations that allows certain quite general basic hypergeometric multi-sums of arbitrary depth (sums that involve an arbitrary sequence \g(k)\), to be reduced to an infinite q-product times a single basic hypergeometric sum. Various applications are given, including summation formulae for some q orthogonal polynomials, and various multi-sums that are expressible as infinite products.
