A q-multisum identity arising from finite chain ring probabilities

Abstract

In this note, we prove a general identity between a q-multisum BN(q) and a sum of N2 products of quotients of theta functions. The q-multisum BN(q) recently arose in the computation of a probability involving modules over finite chain rings.
