We prove, by the WZ-method, some hypergeometric identities which relate ten extended Ramanujan type series to simpler hypergeometric series. The identities we are going to prove are valid for all the values of a parameter $a$ when they are…

This report introduces new series and variations of some hypergeometric type identities for fast computing of logarithms $\log\,p$ for small positive integers $p$. These series were found using Wilf Zeilberger (WZ) method and/or integer…

We prove some "divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ applying a Barnes-integrals strategy of the WZ-method.

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…

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.

First we give general formulas for proving real or complex Ramanujan series for $1/\pi$. Then, as an example, we apply them for providing complete proofs of the fastest series for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan using Russell and Weber modular…

In 2010, Kh. Hessami Pilehrood and T. Hessami Pilehrood introduced generating function identities used to obtain series accelerations for values of Dirichlet's $\beta$ function, via the Markov--Wilf--Zeilberger method. Inspired by these…

We present a new method for producing series for $1/\pi$ and other constants using Legendre's relation, starting from a generation function that can be factorised into two elliptic $K$'s; this way we avoid much of modular theory or creative…

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.

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…

In contrast to all other known Ramanujan-type congruences, we discover that Ramanujan-type congruences for Hurwitz class numbers can be supported on non-holomorphic generating series. We establish a divisibility result for such…

In 1914, Ramanujan gave a list of 17 identities expressing $1/\pi$ as linear combinations of values of hypergeometric functions at certain rational numbers. Since then, identities of similar nature have been discovered by many authors.…

Let $F(n,k)$ be a hypergeometric function that may be expressed so that $n$ appears within initial arguments of inverted Pochhammer symbols, as in factors of the form $\frac{1}{(n)_{k}}$. Only in exceptional cases is $F(n, k)$ such that…
