In this article, we derive, using Fourier series and multiple derivative of the function $\pi/\sin(\pi x)$, series representations for positive powers of $\pi$. We also show that the Euler-Wallis product can be easily obtained from the same…

We present efficient methods for calculating linear recurrences of hypergeometric double sums and, more generally, of multiple sums. In particular, we supplement this approach with the algorithmic theory of contiguous relations, which…

In this article we use theoretical and numerical methods to evaluate in a closed-exact form the parameters of Ramanujan type $1/\pi$ formulas.

The two most commonly used hypergeometric functions are the confluent hypergeometric function and the Gauss hypergeometric function. We review the available techniques for accurate, fast, and reliable computation of these two hypergeometric…

The main aim of the present work is to give some interesting the $q$-analogues of various $q$-recurrence relations, $q$-recursion formulas, $q$-partial derivative relations, $q$-integral representations, transformation and summation…

We prove supercongruences modulo $p^2$ for values of truncated hypergeometric series at some special points. The parameters of the hypergeometric series are $d$ copies of $1/2$ and $d$ copies of $1$ for any integer $d\ge2$.

We systematically exploit a new generalized hypergeometric identity to obtain new hypergeometric summation formulas. As a consistency test, alternative proofs for some special cases are also provided. As a byproduct new summation formulas…

We prove a summation formula for a bilateral series whose terms are products of two basic hypergeometric functions. In special cases, series of this type arise as matrix elements of quantum group representations.

A summation formula is derived for the hypergeometric series of unit argument ${}_3F_2(1,1,c;d,n+2;1)$, where $n=0, 1, 2, \ldots$ and $\Re (d-c+n)>0$.

Several new identities for elliptic hypergeometric series are proved. Remarkably, some of these are elliptic analogues of identities for basic hypergeometric series that are balanced but not very-well-poised.

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.

Via symbolic computation we deduce 97 new type series for powers of $\pi$ related to Ramanujan-type series. Here are three typical examples: $$\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{P(k) \binom{2k}k\binom{3k}k…

Many product formulas are known classically for generalized hypergeometric functions over the complex numbers. In this paper, we establish some analogous formulas for generalized hypergeometric functions over finite fields.

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…

Some examples of naturally arising multisum $q$-series which turn out to have representations as fermionic single sums are presented. The resulting identities are proved using transformation formulas from the theory of basic hypergeometric…

We show that several terminating summation and transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series can be proved in a straightforward way. Along the same line, new finite forms of Jacobi's triple product identity and Watson's quintuple…

We give an extension of Sister Celine's method of proving hypergeometric sum identities that allows it to handle a larger variety of input summands. We then apply this to several problems. Some give new results, and some reprove already…

By telescoping method, Sun gave some hypergeometric series whose sums are related to $\pi$ recently. We investigate these series from the point of view of Gosper's algorithm. Given a hypergeometric term $t_k$, we consider the Gosper…
