| Jun 13 at 12:26 | comment | added | Andreas | The questions asks for the finite q-Pochhammer symbol $(q ; q)_n$. You'll find lots of references about that, a very nice one is "Basic Hypergeometric Series" (2004) by George Gasper and Mizan Rahman, which has the corresponding q-series theory, and lots of formulae on q-Pochhammer symbols in the appendix. | |

Fixed a very small (but substantial) typo in the equation.
