We consider different pentagon identities realized by the hyperbolic hypergeometric functions and investigate their degenerations to the level of complex hypergeometric functions. In particular, we show that one of the degenerations yields…
The standard literature on special functions contains a lot of hypergeometric identities involving products and quotients of gamma functions, but still the occurrence of such identities is a sporadic phenomenon. This is because the…
Let p be an odd prime. In 1984, Greene introduced the notion of hypergeometric functions over finite fields. Special values of these functions have been of interest as they are related to the number of F_p points on algebraic varieties and…
Identities between Whittaker and modified Bessel functions are derived for particular complex orders. Certain polynomials appear in such identities, which satisfy a fourth order differential equation (not of hypergeometric type), and they…
We prove a general alternate circular summation formula of theta functions, which implies a great deal of theta-function identities. In particular, we recover several identities in Ramanujan's Notebook from this identity. We also obtain two…
We prove recursive formulas involving sums of divisors and sums of triangular numbers and give a variety of identities relating arithmetic functions to divisor functions providing inductive identities for such arithmetic functions.
Convolutions for Tribonacci numbers involving binomial coefficients are treated with ordinary generating functions and the diagonalization method of Hautus and Klarner. In this way, the relevant generating function can be established, which…
Given two infinite sequences with known binomial transforms, we compute the binomial transform of the product sequence. Various identities are obtained and numerous examples are given involving sequences of special numbers: Harmonic…
Ramanujan wrote the following identity \begin{align*} \sqrt{2 \left(1 - \frac{1}{3^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{7^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{11^2}\right) \left(1 - \frac{1}{19^2}\right)} \ = \ \left(1 + \frac{1}{7}\right) \left(1 +…
We give a simple geometric argument to derive in a common manner orthospectrum identities of Basmajian and Bridgeman. Our method also considerably simplifies the determination of the summands in these identities. For example, for every odd…
In this paper we study properties of a certain bilinear form on finite dimensional $\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb{R})$-modules, and how these properties behave with respect to tensor products of modules. An attempt to determine the signature of…
The two most commonly used hypergeometric functions are the confluent hypergeometric function and the Gauss hypergeometric function. We review the available techniques for accurate, fast, and reliable computation of these two hypergeometric…
We describe a bilinear identity satisfied by certain multidimensional q-hypergeometric integrals. The identity can be considered as a deformation of the Riemann bilinear relation for the twisted de Rham (co)homologies. The identity also…
In the former part of this paper, we give functional equations for Barnes multiple zeta-functions and consider some relevant results. In particular, we show that Ramanujan's classical formula for the Riemann zeta values can be derived from…
We show that there is a largely unexplored class of functions (positive polymatroids) that can define proper discrete metrics over pairs of binary vectors and that are fairly tractable to optimize over. By exploiting submodularity, we are…
In this paper, we define finitely additive, probability and modular functions over semiring-like structures. We investigate finitely additive functions with the help of complemented elements of a semiring. We also generalize some classical…
In this paper, we investigate some hyperstability results, inspired by the concept of Ulam stability, for the following functional equations: \begin{equation} \varphi(x+y)+\varphi(x-y)=2\varphi(x)+2\varphi(y) \end{equation} \begin{equation}…
We present two algorithms for computing hypergeometric solutions of second order linear differential operators with rational function coefficients. Our first algorithm searches for solutions of the form \[ \exp(\int r \,…
We introduce an ${\rm S}_d$-analogue of the hypergeometric Bernoulli polynomials and study their properties. To achieve this goal, we introduce a calculus defined on the simplicial $d$-polytopic numbers. Two definitions of the ${\rm…
Using techniques from calculus, we combine classical identities for $\pi$, $\operatorname{ln}2$, and harmonic numbers, to arrive at a nice infinite series formula for $\pi/3$ that does not appear to be well known. In addition, we give…
