Simple Series
Some simple series expressions include
![\frac{z}{1-q} \;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}
q \; q \\
q^2 \end{matrix}\; ; q,z \right] =
\frac{z}{1-q}
+ \frac{z^2}{1-q^2}
+ \frac{z^3}{1-q^3}
+ \ldots](http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/7/e/8/7e8df00949af12cfad161caaacbe12f5.png)
and
![\frac{z}{1-q^{1/2}} \;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}
q \; q^{1/2} \\
q^{3/2} \end{matrix}\; ; q,z \right] =
\frac{z}{1-q^{1/2}}
+ \frac{z^2}{1-q^{3/2}}
+ \frac{z^3}{1-q^{5/2}}
+ \ldots](http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/1/c/f/1cfa9f8cfcd4b2965a0594635e0d9e50.png)
and
![\;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}

\frac{2z}{1+q}
+ \frac{2z^2}{1+q^2}

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or series:
“For the discerning intellect of Man,
When wedded to this goodly universe
In love and holy passion, shall find these
A simple produce of the common day.
MI, long before the blissful hour arrives,
Would chant, in lonely peace, the spousal verse
Of this great consummation—”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
“In the order of literature, as in others, there is no act that is not the coronation of an infinite series of causes and the source of an infinite series of effects.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
