Abstract

Recently, G.E. Andrews and M. Merca considered specializations of the Rogers–Fine identity and obtained partition-theoretic interpretations of two truncated identities of Gauss solving a problem by V.J.W. Guo and J. Zeng. In this paper, we provide purely combinatorial proofs of these results.
