Multiranks and new rank/crank analogs for a variety of partitions are given, so as to imply combinatorially some arithmetic properties enjoyed by these types of partitions. Our methods are elementary relying entirely on the three classical…
In 1915, Ramanujan proved asymptotic inequalities for the sum of divisors function, assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH). We consider a strong version of Ramanujan's theorem and define highest abundant numbers that are extreme with respect…
We generalize the patterns of supercongruences of Ramanujan-type observed by L. Van Hamme and W. Zudilin to series involving simple square roots anywhere and not only in the result of the sum. To support our observations we give some…
This is an item on Ramanujan Graphs for a planned encyclopedia on Ramanujan. The notion of Ramanujan graphs is explained, as well as the reason to name these graphs after Ramanujan.
We show that every monic polynomial of degree three with complex coefficients and no repeated roots is either a (vertical and horizontal) translation of $y=x^3$ or can be composed with a linear function to obtain a Ramanujan cubic. As a…
We provide a rigorous formulation of Entry 17(v) in Ramanujan's Notebooks and show how this relates to the first Stieltjes constant. A new proposition 4.5 is included to show the close relationship with some analysis presented by…
Using the machinery from the theory of Calabi-Yau differential equations, we find formulas for $1/\pi^2$ of hypergeometric and non-hypergeometric types.
In 2015 Choi, Kim, and Lovejoy studied a weighted partition function, $A_1(m)$, which counted subpartitions with a structure related to the Rogers--Ramanujan identities. They conjectured the existence of an infinite class of congruences for…
Strict partitions are enumerated with respect to the weight, the number of parts, and the number of sequences of odd length. We write this trivariate generating function as a double sum $q$-series. Equipped with such a combinatorial set-up,…
We give an elementary proof for new strict upper and lower bounds for the correction term in Ramanujan's approximation for the factorial function
Here we weave together interviews conducted by the author with three prominent figures in the world of Ramanujan's mathematics, George Andrews, Bruce Berndt and Ken Ono. The article describes Andrews's discovery of the "lost" notebook,…
An identity by Ramanujan related to the multisection of Bernoulli numbers is revisited. Two alternative approaches are proposed, both relying on the multisection technique. A geometric approach reveals the role played by the symmetries of…
We generalize certain recent results of Ushiroya concerning Ramanujan expansions of arithmetic functions of two variables. We also show that some properties on expansions of arithmetic functions of one and several variables using classical…
Motivated by work of Chan, Chan, and Liu, we obtain a new general theorem which produces Ramanujan-Sato series for $1/\pi$. We then use it to construct explicit examples related to non-compact arithmetic triangle groups, as classified by…
A long-term research proposal on the algebraic structure, the representations and the possible applications of paraparticle algebras is structured in three modules: The first part stems from an attempt to classify the inequivalent gradings…
We settle a conjecture proposed by B. Maji and T. Sarkar regarding the location of zeros of a two-parameter family of reciprocal polynomials, $R_{k,\ell}(z)$ for positive integers $k$ and $\ell$. These polynomials are generalizations of…
We present here a way to evaluate a very wide class of integrals relating Ramanujans continued fraction and q-product. To do this we explore briefily a differential equation, which relates these two functions
This survey accompanies a lecture on the paper ``Interlacing Families I: Bipartite Ramanujan Graphs of All Degrees'' by A. Marcus, D. Spielman, and N. Srivastava at the 2024 International Congress of Basic Science (ICBS) in July, 2024. Its…
Several continued fraction expansions for $e$ have been produced by an automated conjecture generator (ACG) called \emph{The Ramanujan Machine}. Some of these were already known, some have recently been proved and some remain unproven.…
We prove a theorem which add a new member to Rogers-Ramanujan identities. This new member counts partitions with different type of constraints on even and odd parts. Generalizing this theorem, we obtain two family of partition identities of…
