Comments

The g.f.s for this sequence illustrate the following formula:

log(e_q(x,q)) = Sum_{n>=1} (1-q)^n/(1-q^n)*x^n/n, where

e_q(x,q) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n/faq(n,q) is the q-exponential of x and

faq(n,q) = Product_{k=1..n} (q^k-1)/(q-1) is the q-factorial of n.

Formula

G.f.: e_q(x,-x) = Sum_{n>=0} x^n/(Product_{k=1..n} (1-(-x)^k)/(1+x)).

G.f.: e_q(x,-x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} x^n*(1+x)^n/(1-(-x)^n)/n ).

G.f.: 1/Product_{k>0} 1+(1+x)*(-x)^k. - Vladeta Jovovic, Dec 19 2008
