In his notebooks, Ramanujan presented without proof many remarkable formulae for the solutions to generalized modular equations. Much later, proofs of the formulae were provided by making use of highly nontrivial identities for theta series…
We prove that there exist bipartite Ramanujan graphs of every degree and every number of vertices. The proof is based on analyzing the expected characteristic polynomial of a union of random perfect matchings, and involves three…
I present here a collection of formulas inspired from the Ramanujan Notebooks. These formulas were found using an experimental method based on three widely available symbolic computation programs: PARI-Gp, Maple and Mathematica. A new…
In 1918 S. Ramanujan defined a family of trigonometric sum now known as Ramanujan sums. In the last few years, Ramanujan sums have inspired the signal processing community. In this paper, we have defined an operator termed here as Ramanujan…
We give a brief review of the work of Ramanujan on cranks that is found in the Lost Notebook. Recent work by Bruce Berndt and his coauthors have brought to light many interesting results of Ramanujan on cranks, which we highlight in this…
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 short research note, we aim to establish an interesting extension of a summation due to Ramanujan.The result is derived with the help of an extension of Gauss's summation theorem available in the literature.
In this expository article, we discuss the contributions made by several mathematicians with regard to a famous formula of Ramanujan for odd zeta values. The goal is to complement the excellent survey by Berndt and Straub…
Symmetry analysis of Ramanujan's system of differential equations is performed by representing it as a third-order equation. A new system consisting of a second-order and a first-order equation is derived from Ramanujan's system. The Lie…
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.
We study a continued fraction due to Ramanujan, that he recorded as Entry 12 in Chapter 16 of his second notebook. It is presented in Part III of Berndt's volumes on Ramanujan's notebooks. We give two alternate approaches to proving…
We introduce and prove evaluations for families of multiple elliptic integrals by solving special types of ordinary and partial differential equations. As an application, we obtain new expressions of Ramanujan-type series of level 4 and…
We study an elementary series that can be considered a relative of a series studied by Ramanujan in Part 1 of his Lost Notebooks. We derive a closed form for this series in terms of the inverse hyperbolic arctangent and the polylogarithm.…
In some recent papers, the authors considered regular continued fractions of the form \[ [a_{0};\underbrace{a,...,a}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{2},...,a^{2}}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{3},...,a^{3}}_{m}, ... ], \] where $a_{0} \geq 0$, $a \geq 2$ and $m…
Ramanujan made many beautiful and elegant discoveries in his short life of 32 years, and one of them that has attracted the attention of several mathematicians over the years is his intriguing formula for $\zeta(2n+1)$. To be sure,…
We study Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction and explicit evaluations of theta-functions
Continued fractions whose elements are polynomial sequences have been carefully studied mostly in the cases where the degree of the numerator polynomial is less than or equal to two and the degree of the denominator polynomial is less than…
We generalize Ramanujan method of approximating the smallest root of an equation which is found in Ramanujan Note books, Part-I. We provide simple analytical proof to study convergence of this method. Moreover, we study iterative approach…
In this paper, we establish the irrationality of some open problems in mathematics based on using a recursive formula that generate the complete sequence of numbers. see [1] But before getting into that we begin with some Ramanujan notable…
Starting with Ramanujan's famous taxicab problem, we can study the solvability of the equations $p^n+q^n=r^n+s^n$ and, more generally, $p_1^{k_1}+\dots+p_m^{k_m}=0$ among polynomials.
