We give a new proof of a_4\phi_3 summation due to G.E. Andrews and confirm another_4\phi_3 summation conjectured by him recently. Some variations of these two_4\phi_3 summations are also given.
According to the method of series rearrangement, we establish two families of summation formulae for $q$-Watson type $_4\phi_3$-series.
By using contiguous relations for basic hypergeometric series, we give simple proofs of Bailey's $_4\phi_3$ summation, Carlitz's $_5\phi_4$ summation, Sears' $_3\phi_2$ to $_5\phi_4$ transformation, Sears' ${}_4\phi_3$ transformations,…
Using the method of the $q$-exponential differential operator, we give an extension of the Sears $_4\phi_3$ transformation formula. Based on this extended formula and a $q$-series expansion formula for an analytic function around the…
Series expansions for the mathematical constant $\beta(4)$ are rare in the history. With the help of the operator method and a hypergeometric transformation, we prove a surprising conjectural series of Sun for $\beta(4)$. Furthermore, we…
A master formula of transformation formulas for bilinear sums of basic hypergeometric series is proposed. It is obtained from the author's previous results on a transformation formula for Milne's multivariate generalization of basic…
It is shown how Andrews' multidimensional extension of Watson's transformation between a very-well-poised $_8\phi_7$-series and a balanced $_4\phi_3$-series can be used to give a straightforward proof of a conjecture of Zudilin and the…
We show that certain terminating $_{6}\phi_5$ series can be factorized into a product of two $_{3}\phi_{2}$ series. As applications we prove a summation formula for a product of two $q$-Delannoy numbers along with some congruences for sums…
In this paper we prove some new series for $1/\pi$ as well as related congruences. We also raise several new kinds of series for $1/\pi$ and present some related conjectural congruences involving representations of primes by binary…
In 1981, Andrews gave a four-variable generalization of Ramanujan's ${_1\psi_1}$ summation formula. We establish a six-variable generalization of Andrews' identity according to the transformation formula for two ${_8\phi_7}$ series and…
We obtain a formula which reduces the evaluation of a $_2\psi_2$ series to two $_2\phi_1$ series. In some sense, this identity may be considered as a companion of Slater's formulas. We also find that a two-term ${}_2\psi_2$ summation…
A proof of an unusual summation formula for a basic hypergeometric series associated to the affine root system $\tilde A_n$ that was conjectured by Warnaar is given. It makes use of Milne's $A_n$ extension of Watson's transformation,…
According to the method of series rearrangement, we establish two generalizations of Andrews' curious $q$-series identity with an extra integer parameter. The limiting cases of them produce two extensions of Andrews' curious…
Using a general $q$-series expansion, we derive some nontrivial $q$-formulas involving many infinite products. A multitude of Hecke--type series identities are derived. Some general formulas for sums of any number of squares are given. A…
In this paper we show an alternative way of defining Fourier Series and Transform by using the concept of convolution with exponential signals. This approach has the advantage of simplifying proofs of transforms properties and, in our view,…
We study multivariable (bilateral) basic hypergeometric series associated with (type $A$) Macdonald polynomials. We derive several transformation and summation properties for such series including analogues of Heine's ${}_2\phi_1$…
We prove the so-called inverse conjecture for the Gowers U^{s+1}-norm in the case s = 3 (the cases s < 3 being established in previous literature). That is, we establish that if f : [N] -> C is a function with |f(n)| <= 1 for all n and || f…
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…
Recently, Wang and Ma propose a conjecture associated with the possible generalization of Andrews-Warnaar identities. It is confirmed in this paper. As the applications of this conjecture, we prove that a family of series can be expressed…
Let $\phi$ be a polynomial over $K$ (a field of characteristic 0) such that the Hessian of $\phi$ is a nonzero constant. Let $\bar\phi$ be the formal Legendre Transform of $\phi$. Then $\bar\phi$ is well-defined as a formal power series…
