simplifying a product formula (similar to Euler's sine product)

323 Views Asked by At

Can anyone help me out trying to simplify the left hand side of the below equation to obtain the right hand side?

$$ \displaystyle\prod_{\substack{n=-\infty \\n\neq 0}}^\infty\left(1-\frac{z}{n}\right)e^{z/n} = \prod_{n=1}^\infty\left(1-\frac{z^2}{n^2}\right). $$

Note that $$\left(1-\frac z n\right) e^{z/n} \cdot \left(1+\frac z n\right) e^{-z/n} = 1-\frac{z^2}{n^2}.$$
