In this article we use theoretical and numerical methods to evaluate in a closed-exact form the parameters of Ramanujan type $1/\pi$ formulas.
In a famous paper of $1914$ Ramanujan gave a list of $17$ extraordinary formulas for the number $\pi$. In this paper we explain a general method to prove them, based on an original idea of James Wan and in some own ideas.
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…
The known WZ-proofs for Ramanujan-type series related to $1/\pi$ gave us the insight to develop a new proof strategy based on the WZ-method. Using this approach we are able to find more generalizations and discover first WZ-proofs for…
In 1914 S. Ramanujan recorded a list of 17 series for $1/\pi$. We survey the methods of proofs of Ramanujan's formulae and indicate recently discovered generalizations, some of which are not yet proven.
In this paper we want to prove some formulas listed by S. Ramanujan in his paper "Modular equations and approximations to $\pi$" \cite{24} with an elementary method.
In terms of the hypergeometric method, we establish the extensions of two formulas for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan [27]. Further, other five summation formulas for $1/\pi$ with free parameters are also derived in the same way.
Several terminating generalizations of Ramanujan's formula for $\frac{1}{\pi}$ with complete WZ proofs are given.
We make a summary of the different types of proofs adding some new ideas. In addition we conjecture some relations which could be necessary in "modular type proofs" (not still found) of the Ramanujan-like series for 1/\pi^2.
First we give general formulas for proving real or complex Ramanujan series for $1/\pi$. Then, as an example, we apply them for providing complete proofs of the fastest series for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan using Russell and Weber modular…
Using the machinery from the theory of Calabi-Yau differential equations, we find formulas for $1/\pi^2$ of hypergeometric and non-hypergeometric types.
We prove two new series of Ramanujan type for $1/\pi^2$.
We develop an approach to establish $1/\pi$-series from bimodular forms. Utilizing this approach, we obtain new families of $2$-variable $1/\pi$-series associated to Zagier's sporadic Apery-like sequences.
We show with some examples how to prove some Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ in an elementary way by using terminating identities.
We outline an elementary method for proving numerical hypergeometric identities, in particular, Ramanujan-type identities for $1/\pi$. The principal idea is using algebraic transformations of arithmetic hypergeometric series to translate…
We apply the method established in our previous work to derive a Chudnovsky-Ramanujan type formula for the Legendre family of elliptic curves. As a result, we prove two identities for $1/\pi$ in terms of hypergeometric functions.
In this paper we prove some Ramanujan-type formulas for $1/\pi$ but without using the theory of modular forms. Instead we use the WZ-method created by H. Wilf and D. Zeilberger and find some hypergeometric functions in two variables which…
We prove some "divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ applying a Barnes-integrals strategy of the WZ-method.
We prove a Ramanujan-type formula for $520/\pi$ conjectured by Sun. Our proof begins with a hypergeometric representation of the relevant double series, which relies on a recent generating function for Legendre polynomials by Wan and…
We prove q-analogues of two Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ from $q$-analogues of ordinary WZ pairs.
