In this seminar beautiful and important results from the theory of q-series (an area which originally goes back to Euler and which is usually viewed to be a common subarea of combinatorics and of number theory) will be studied. The material to be covered will include the Jacobi triple product identity, the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, and various congruences of the partition function.
