Abstract

In the present work, we prove few new Dedekind eta-function identities of level 6 discovered by Somos in two different methods. Also during this process, we give an alternate method to Somos’s Dedekind eta-function identities of level 6 proved by B. R. Srivatsa Kumar et al. As an application of this, we establish colored partition identities.
