Abstract
In 2012, Andrews and Merca investigated the truncated version of the Euler pentagonal number theorem. Their work has opened up a new study on truncated theta series and has inspired several mathematicians to work on the topic. In 2019, Merca studied the Rogers-Ramanujan functions and posed three groups of conjectures on truncated series involving the Rogers-Ramanujan functions. In this paper, we present a uniform method to prove the three groups of conjectures given by Merca based on a result due to Pólya and Szegö.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Combinatorial Theory publishes original mathematical research concerned with theoretical and physical aspects of the study of finite and discrete structures in all branches of science. Series A is concerned primarily with structures, designs, and applications of combinatorics and is a valuable tool for mathematicians and computer scientists.
