For i=1, 2, 3, 4, let Q i (n) denote the number of partitions of n into distinct parts i (mod 4). New weighted identities in three free parameters are established connecting Q i (n) with partitions whose parts differ by 4 and such that consecutive members of the arithmetic progression #i (mod 4) can

✦ Synopsis
A key identity in three free parameters involving partitions into distinct parts is proved using Jackson's q-analog of Dougall's summation. This identity is shown to be combinatorially equivalent to a reformulation of a deep partition theorem of Go llnitz obtained by the use of a quartic transformation.

In this paper we give a computer proof of a new polynomial identity, which extends a recent result of Alladi and the first author. In addition, we provide computer proofs for new finite analogs of Jacobi and Euler formulas. All computer proofs are done with the aid of the new computer algebra packag
