A new class of infinite products, and Euler's totient

We introduce some new infinite products, the simplest being(1−y)∏k=2∞∏j∈ϕk(1−ykqj)1/k=(1−y1−qy)1/(1−q),where ϕk is the set of positive integers less than and relatively prime to k, valid for |y|∧|qy| both less than unity, with q≠1. The idea of a q-analogue for the Euler totient function is suggested...
