 : In this introductory lecture I will describe some connections between elliptic hypergeometric series (a rather recent extension of basic hypergeometric series which involves theta functions) and combinatorics. A central theme here is combinatorial enumeration using elliptic weight functions. For instance,a (suitable) “elliptic enumeration” of lattice paths leads to a closed form elliptic generalization of binomial coefficients.Convolution of these elliptic binomial coefficients yields the celebrated Frenkel–Turae $_{10}V_9$ summation, an identity which is fundamental in the theory of elliptic hypergeometric series.Similarly, by suitably introducing elliptic weights in the respective classical models (such as rook theory), one can obtain elliptic generalizations of various special combinatorial numbers,including the Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds.

In my talk I will also touch on closely connected topics including elliptic commuting variables and basis transitions.
