In 2014, Chen and Singer solved the summability problem of bivariate rational functions. Later an algorithmic proof was presented by Hou and the author. In this paper, the algorithm will be simplified and adapted to the $q$-case.
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,…
Several new $q$-supercongruences are obtained using transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series, together with various techniques such as suitably combining terms, and creative microscoping, a method recently developed by the…
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…
Two $q$-supercongruences of truncated basic hypergeometric series containing two free parameters are established by employing specific identities for basic hypergeometric series. The results partly extend two $q$-supercongruences that were…
Chaudhry and Qadir obtained new identities for the gamma function by using a distributional representation for it. Here we obtain new identities for the Riemann zeta function and its family by using that representation for them. This also…
In his second notebook, Ramanujan recorded total of 23 P-Q modular equations involving theta-functions $f(-q)$, $\varphi(q)$ and $\psi(q)$. In this paper, modular equations analogous to those recorded by Ramanujan are obtained involving…

Full-sampling (e.g., Q-learning) and pure-expectation (e.g., Expected Sarsa) algorithms are efficient and frequently used techniques in reinforcement learning. Q$(\sigma,\lambda)$ is the first approach unifies them with eligibility trace…
Integral representations of two $q$-difference operators are provided in terms of special functions arising in the theory of asymptotic solutions to $q$-difference equations in the complex domain. Both representations are unified through…
In this paper, we answer a question of Li, Ngo, and Rhoades concerning a set of $q$-series related to the $q$-hypergeometric series $\sigma$ from Ramanajun's lost notebook. Our results parallel a theorem of Cohen which says that $\sigma$,…
In this paper, we explore the role that Liu's transformation formula can play in discovering Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. Specifically, we combine Liu's transformation formula with other $q$-series summations to derive a series of…
We generalize the reciprocity theorem of G.R.~Robinson, D. Benson and P. Webb between a finite group and its subgroup to the case of finite-dimensional {\it symmetric} algebras over a field which are connected by a bimodule for the two…
We explore Fourier transforms of the reciprocal of the Riemann zeta function that have connections to the RH. A partial answer to a recently posed problem is explored by exploiting the fact that $\zeta(s)\neq0$ when $\Re(s)=1.$
The representation theory of the group U(1,q) is discussed in detail because of its possible application in a quaternion version of the Salam-Weinberg theory. As a consequence, from purely group theoretical arguments we demonstrate that the…
In this short paper, we show how to deduce several types of generating functions from Srivastava {\it et al} [Appl. Set-Valued Anal. Optim. {\bf 1} (2019), pp. 187-201.] by the method of $q$-difference equations. Moreover, we build…
This paper has a two-fold purpose. First, by considering a reformulation of a deep theorem of G\"ollnitz, we obtain a new weighted partition identity involving the Rogers-Ramanujan partitions, namely, partitions into parts differing by at…
We use a representability theorem of G. L. Watson to examine sums of squares in Quaternion rings with integer coefficients. This allows us to determine a large family of such rings where every element expressible as the sum of squares can…
The generating function of partitions with repeated (resp. distinct) parts such that each odd part is less than twice the smallest part is shown to be the third order mock theta function $\omega(q)$ (resp. $\nu(-q)$). Similar results for…
Much has been written on reciprocity laws in number theory and their connections with group representations. In this paper we explore more on these connections. We prove a "reciprocity Law" for certain specific representations of semidirect…
