Using the theory of Calabi-Yau differential equations we obtain all the parameters of Ramanujan-Sato-like series for $1/\pi^2$ as $q$-functions valid in the complex plane. Then we use these q-functions together with a conjecture to find new…
In this paper we prove theorems related to the Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ (type $_3F_2$) and to the Ramanujan-like series, discovered by the author, for $1/\pi^2$ (type $_5F_4$). Our developments for the cases $_3 F_2$ and $_5 F_4$…
In this article we give the theoretical background for generating Ramanujan type $1/\pi^{2\nu}$ formulas. As applications of our method we give a general construction of $1/\pi^4$ series and examples of $1/\pi^6$ series. We also study the…
We prove two new series of Ramanujan type for $1/\pi^2$.
We outline an elementary method for proving numerical hypergeometric identities, in particular, Ramanujan-type identities for $1/\pi$. The principal idea is using algebraic transformations of arithmetic hypergeometric series to translate…
Our main results are a WZ-proof of a new Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$ and a hypergeometric identity involving three series.
We present several supercongruences that may be viewed as $p$-adic analogues of Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$, and prove three of these examples.
In terms of the hypergeometric method, we establish the extensions of two formulas for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan [27]. Further, other five summation formulas for $1/\pi$ with free parameters are also derived in the same way.
In this article we use theoretical and numerical methods to evaluate in a closed-exact form the parameters of Ramanujan type $1/\pi$ formulas.
"Divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ provide us with new nice examples of supercongruences of the same kind as those related to the convergent cases. In this paper we manage to prove three of the supercongruences by…
We define bilateral series related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$. Then, we conjecture a property of them and give some applications.
We make a summary of the different types of proofs adding some new ideas. In addition we conjecture some relations which could be necessary in "modular type proofs" (not still found) of the Ramanujan-like series for 1/\pi^2.
We develop an approach to establish $1/\pi$-series from bimodular forms. Utilizing this approach, we obtain new families of $2$-variable $1/\pi$-series associated to Zagier's sporadic Apery-like sequences.
We use a variant of Wan's method to prove two Ramanujan-Orr type formulas for $1/\pi$. This variant needs to know in advance the formulas for $1/\pi$ that we want to prove, but avoids the need of solving a system of equations.
The hypergeometric formulae designed by Ramanujan more than a century ago for efficient approximation of $\pi$, Archimedes' constant, remain an attractive object of arithmetic study. In this note we discuss some $q$-analogues of…
We explain the use and set grounds about applicability of algebraic transformations of arithmetic hypergeometric series for proving Ramanujan's formulae for $1/\pi$ and their generalisations.
We find new hypergeometric identities which, in a certain aspect, are stron-ger than others of the same style found by the author in a previous paper. The identities in Section \ref{section-pi} are related to some Ramanujan-type series for…
In 1914 S. Ramanujan recorded a list of 17 series for $1/\pi$. We survey the methods of proofs of Ramanujan's formulae and indicate recently discovered generalizations, some of which are not yet proven.
In this paper we prove some Ramanujan-type formulas for $1/\pi$ but without using the theory of modular forms. Instead we use the WZ-method created by H. Wilf and D. Zeilberger and find some hypergeometric functions in two variables which…
Using some properties of the gamma function and the well-known Gauss summation formula for the classical hypergeometric series, we prove a four-parameter series expansion formula, which can produce infinitely many Ramanujan type series for…
