In this paper, motivated by physical considerations, we introduce the notion of modified Riemann sums of Riemann-Stieltjes integrable functions, show that they converge, and compute them explicitely under various assumptions.
We derive certain identities involving various known arithmetical functions and a generalized version of Ramanujan sum. L. Toth constructed certain weighted averages of Ramanujan sums with various arithmetic functions as weights. We choose…
We compute the adjoint of the Serre derivative map with respect to the Petersson scalar product by using existing tools of nearly holomorphic modular forms. The Fourier coefficients of a cusp form of integer weight $k$, constructed using…
In this paper, we give a generate function for the $\sigma_1$ function. Then we find some connections between the $\sigma_1$ function and the Ramanujan's tau function. We hope this connection will give some insights into the unsolved…
Two classes of finite trigonometric sums, each involving only $\sin$'s, are evaluated in closed form. The previous and original proofs arise from Ramanujan's theta functions and modular equations.
Let $d(n)$ denote the number of divisors of a positive integer $n$. A classical problem in analytic number theory is given by the asymptotic behavior of the divisor sum $\sum_{n \leq x} \frac{1}{d(n)}$, with Ramanujan having introduced an…
We establish a connection between the ratios conjecture for the Riemann zeta-function and a conjecture concerning correlations of convolutions of M\"{o}bius and divisor functions. Specifically, we prove that the ratios conjecture and an…

Applying the triplicate form of the extended Gould--Hsu inverse series relations to Dougall's summation theorem for the well--poised $_7F_6$-series, we establish, from the dual series, several interesting Ramanujan--like infinite series…
We introduce the tau-function of a rational d-connection and its isomonodromy transformations. We show that in a continuous limit our tau-function agrees with the Jimbo-Miwa-Ueno tau-function, compute the tau-function for the isomonodromy…
We investigate the polynomials $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} c_n(k)x^k$ and $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} |c_n(k)| x^k$, where $c_n(k)$ denote the Ramanujan sums. We point out connections and analogies to the cyclotomic polynomials.
We give a new non-trivial upper bound for the Selberg integral of the three-divisor function $d_3(n)$. Our method applies our recent conjecture together with Laporta, for the modified Selberg integral of $d_3(n)$, and a kind of modified…
In this paper, we study the sum of the divisor function over sets with digit restrictions.
Given two arithmetical functions $f,g$ we derive, under suitable conditions, asymptotic formulas with error term, for the convolution sums $\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h)$, building on an earlier work of Gadiyar, Murty and Padma. A key role in…
We call $R_G(a):=\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}G(q)c_q(a)$ the 'Ramanujan series', of coefficient $G:$N$\to$C, where $c_q(a)$ is the well-known Ramanujan sum. We study the convergence of this series (a preliminary step, to study Ramanujan expansions…
In this short note, we treat an unbalanced shifted convolution sum of Fourier coefficients of cusp forms by a rather simple argument. Our result improves previous results established by more advanced approaches.
We study the behavior of the shifted convolution sum involving fourth power of the Fourier coefficients of holomorphic cusp forms with a weight function to be the $k$-full kernel function for any fixed integer $k\geq2$.
We study the quotient of hypergeometric functions \begin{equation*} \mu_{a}^*(r)=\frac{\pi}{2\sin{(\pi a)}}\frac{F(a,1-a;1;1-r^3)}{F(a,1-a;1;r^3)} \quad (r\in(0,1)) \end{equation*} in the theory of Ramanujan's generalized modular equation…
Let $1=d_{1}<d_{2}< \cdots < d_{\tau(n)}=n$ denote the ordered sequence of the positive divisors of an integer $n$. We are interested in estimating the arithmetic function $$ V(n) := \prod_{1 \le i < j \le \tau(n)}(d_{j}-d_{i}) \quad (n \ge…
In this paper, we study shifted Schur functions $S_\mu^\star$, as well as a new family of shifted symmetric functions $\mathfrak{K}_\mu$ linked to Kostka numbers. We prove that both are polynomials in multi-rectangular coordinates, with…
