In a recent paper G. Bhatnagar has given simple proofs of some of Ramanujan's continued fractions. In this note we show that some variants of these continued fractions are generating functions of q-Schroeder-like numbers.
We apply our Yennie-Frautschi-Suura exponentiated cross section formulas for the parton processes $q + {^(} \bar q {^)}{^\prime} \ra q{^\prime}{^\prime} + {^(} \bar q {^)}{^\prime}{^\prime}{^\prime} + n(G)$ to the process $q + \bar q \ra t…
For a fixed nonnegative integer $u$ and positive integer $n$, we investigate the symmetric function \[\sum_{d|n} \left(c_d(\tfrac{n}{d})\right)^u p_d^{\tfrac{n}{d}},\] where $p_n$ denotes the $n$th power sum symmetric function, and $c_d(r)$…
Cohen-Ramanujan sum, denoted by $c_r^s(n)$, is an exponential sum similar to the Ramanujan sum $c_r(n):=\sum\limits_{\substack{h=1\\{(h,r)=1}}}^{r}e^{\frac{2\pi i n h}{r}}$. An arithmetical function $f$ is said to admit a Cohen-Ramanujan…
$q$-Analogues of the coefficients of $x^a$ in the expansion of $\prod_{j=1}^N (1+x+...+x^j)^{L_j}$ are proposed. Useful properties, such as recursion relations, symmetries and limiting theorems of the ``$q$-supernomial coefficients'' are…
In his lost notebook, Ramanujan listed 5 identities related to the false theta function $$f(q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^nq^{n(n+1)/2}.$$ A new combinatorial interpretation and proof of one of these identities is given. The methods of the…

The bivariate series $\theta (q,x):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j$ %(where $(q,x)\in {\bf C}^2$, $|q|<1$) defines a {\em partial theta function}. For fixed $q$ ($|q|<1$), $\theta (q,.)$ is an entire function. For $q\in (-1,0)$ the…
We present here a way to evaluate a very wide class of integrals relating Ramanujans continued fraction and q-product. To do this we explore briefily a differential equation, which relates these two functions
In this paper we show that various continued fractions for the quotient of general Ramanujan functions $G(aq,b,\l q)/G(a,b,\l)$ may be derived from each other via Bauer-Muir transformations. The separate convergence of numerators and…
We generalize certain recent results of Ushiroya concerning Ramanujan expansions of arithmetic functions of two variables. We also show that some properties on expansions of arithmetic functions of one and several variables using classical…
Counting functions are constructed for sums of integers raised to a fixed positive rational power. That is, given values formed by $u_1^{j/k} + u_2^{j/k} + ... + u_l^{j/k}$, $u_i \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, the number of values less than or equal to…
Gorsky and Negut introduced operators $Q_{m,n}$ on symmetric functions and conjectured that, in the case where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime, the expression ${Q}_{m,n}(1)$ is given by the Hikita polynomial ${H}_{m,n}[X;q,t]$. Later,…
We derived $q$-continued fractions $X_i(q)$ of order thirty-four and continued fractions $Y_i(q)$ of order sixty-eight from a general continued fraction identity of Ramanujan, where $i=1,2,3,4,5,6,7$ and $8$. We established some…
We introduce two new integer partition functions, both of which are the number of partition quadruples of $n$ with certain size restrictions. We prove both functions satisfy Ramanujan-type congruences modulo $3$, $5$, $7$, and $13$ by use…
Let \tau(.) be the Ramanujan \tau-function, and let k be a positive integer such that \tau(n) is not 0 for n=1,...,[k/2]. (This is known to be true for k < 10^{23}, and, conjecturally, for all k.) Further, let s be a permutation of the set…
Recently, $\lambda$-Bernoulli and $\lambda$-Euler numbers are studied in [5, 10]. The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic study of some families of the $q$-extensions of the $\lambda$-Bernoulli and the $\lambda$-Euler numbers…
We consider the partial theta function $\theta (q,z):=\sum _{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}z^j$, where $z\in \mathbb{C}$ is a variable and $q\in \mathbb{C}$, $0<|q|<1$, is a parameter. Set $\alpha _0~:=~\sqrt{3}/2\pi ~=~0.2756644477\ldots$. We…
