Landen transformation formulas, which connect Jacobi elliptic functions with different modulus parameters, were first obtained over two hundred years ago by changing integration variables in elliptic integrals.We rediscover known results as…
In this paper we add to the literature on the combinatorial nature of the mock theta functions, a collection of curious $q$-hypergeometric series introduced by Ramanujan in his last letter to Hardy in 1920, which we now know to be important…
The Riemann theta function is a complex-valued function of g complex variables. It appears in the construction of many (quasi-) periodic solutions of various equations of mathematical physics. In this paper, algorithms for its computation…
The product sides of the Rogers--Ramanujan identities and alike often appear to be "transparently modular" (functions). The old work by Rogers (1894) and recent work by Rosengren make use (somewhat implicitly) of this fact for proving the…
Ramanujan's Master theorem states that, under suitable conditions, the Mellin transform of a power series provides an interpolation formula for the coefficients of this series. Based on the duality of Riemannian symmetric spaces of compact…
Gessel gave a determinantal expression for certain sums of Schur functions which visually looks like the classical Jacobi-Trudi formula. We explain the commonality of these formulas using a construction of Zelevinsky involving BGG complexes…
We introduce a new multivariate orthogonal polynomial which is a 2-parameter deformation of the spherical polynomial by harmonic analysis on symmetric cone. This is also regarded as a multivariate analogue of the circular Jacobi polynomial.…
We give iterative constructions for irreducible polynomials over F_q of degree nt^r for all nonnegative integers r, starting from irreducible polynomials of degree n. The iterative constructions correspond modulo fractional linear…
We study Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction and explicit evaluations of theta-functions
We use a generalized Lambert series identity due to the first author to present q-series proofs of recent results of Imamoglu, Raum and Richter concerning recursive formulas for the coefficients of two 3rd order mock theta functions.…
Let $\Theta_{3} (z):= \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \exp (i \pi n^2 z)$ be the standard Jacobi theta function, which is holomorphic and zero-free in the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$, and takes positive values along the positive imaginary axis. We…
In this paper new classes of $L_2$-orthogonal functions are constructed as iterated $L_2$-orthogonal systems. In order to do this we use the theory of the Riemann's zeta-function as well as our theory of Jacob's ladders. The main result is…
We prove that there is a correspondence between Ramanujan-type formulas for 1/\pi, and formulas for Dirichlet L-values. The same method also allows us to resolve certain values of the Epstein zeta function in terms of rapidly converging…
The Sklyanin algebra admits realizations by difference operators acting on theta functions. Sklyanin found an invariant metric for the action and conjectured an explicit formula for the corresponding reproducing kernel. We prove this…
In this paper we set up a bivariate representation of partial theta functions which not only unifies some famous identities for partial theta functions due to Andrews and Warnaar, et al. but also unveils a new characteristic of such…
We look for differential equations satisfied by the generalized Jacobi polynomials which are orthogonal on the interval [-1,1] with respect to a weight function consisting of the classical Jacobi weight function together with point masses…
In this paper we consider the first four of the eight identities between the tenth order mock theta functions, found in Ramanujan's lost notebook. These were originally proved by Choi. Here we give an alternative (much shorter) proof.
By transforming the Zeta function into a real function through Laplace inverse transformation, an algebraic research paradigm for prime number distribution was established, and important results were obtained (page 10). This method has…
In this paper, a link between $q$-difference equations, Jacobi operators and orthogonal polynomials is given. Replacing the variable $x$ by $ q^{-n}$ in a Sturm-Liouville $q$-difference equation we discovered the Jacobi operator. With…
A modular relation of the form $F(\alpha, w)=F(\beta, iw)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $\alpha\beta=1$, is obtained. It involves the generalized digamma function $\psi_w(a)$ which was recently studied by the authors in their work on developing…
