Solving a formal power series equation
I want to find a function $f(x,y)$ which can satisfy the following equation,
$$\prod _{n=1} ^{\infty} \frac{1+x^n}{(1-x^{n/2}y^{n/2})(1-x^{n/2}y^{-n/2})} = \exp \left[ \sum _{n=1} ^\infty ...

Any dominance between these two functions?
Let $f\left(x\right):=e^{x}+e^{-x}+2$ and $g_{\beta}\left(x\right):=4e^{\beta x^{2}}$.
Do there exist $a>0$ and $\beta>0$, such that $f\left(x\right)\le g\left(x\right)$
for all $x$, $0\le x\le ...

Sum of the polynomial roots raised to a power. How to prove?
Problem:
If we have a polynomial $f$ with a derivative $f\,'$ and quotient $q$ function defined as:
$$q(x)=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}a_ix^{-i}=\frac{f\,'(x)}{f(x)},$$
and the roots of $f$ are ...
