We study Ramanujan-Fourier series of certain arithmetic functions of two variables. We generalize Delange's theorem to the case of arithmetic functions of two variables and give sufficient conditions for pointwise convergence of…
We study the $q$-series $F(q) = \sum q^{m(m+1)/2}/(q)_m^2$ and offer some commentary on why Ramanujan may have thought $F(q)$ does not "close."
An aperiodic (low frequency) spectrum may originate from the error term in the mean value of an arithmetical function such as M\"obius function or Mangoldt function, which are coding sequences for prime numbers. In the discrete Fourier…
Let $c_q(n)$ denote the Ramanujan sum modulo $q$, and let $x$ and $y$ be large reals, with $x = o(y)$. We obtain asymptotic formulas for the sums $$\sum_{n \le y}(\sum_{q \le x} c_q(n))^k \qquad (k = 1, 2).$$
Ramanujan's trigonometric sum $c_q(n)$ can be interpreted as a set of trigonometric moments of a finite measure concentrated at primitive $q$-th roots of unity with equal masses. This gives rise to sets of corresponding polynomials…
Srinivasa Ramanujan provided Fourier series expansions of certain arithmetical functions in terms of the exponential sum defined by $c_q(n)=\sum\limits_{\substack{{m=1}\\(m,q)=1}}^{q}e^{\frac{2 \pi imn}{q}}$. Later, H. Delange derived the…
For an arithmetical function $f$, its Ramanujan expansion is a series expansion in the form $f(n)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty}a(k) c_k(n)$ where $a(k)$ are complex numbers and $c_k(n):= \sum\limits_{\substack{m=1\\(m, k)=1}}^{k}e^{\frac{2\pi…
In the present work, we extend current research in a nearly-forgotten but newly revived topic, initiated by P. A. MacMahon, on a generalized notion which relates the divisor sums to the theory of integer partitions and two infinite families…
By splitting the real line into intervals of unit length a doubly infinite integral of the form $\Int F(q^x)\,dx,\; 0<q<1$, can clearly be expressed as $\Integ \Sum F(q^{x+n})\,dx$, provided $F$ satisfies the appropriate conditions. This…
The two Rogers-Ramanujan $q$-series \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{q^{n(n+\sigma)}}{(1-q)\cdots (1-q^n)}, \] where $\sigma=0,1$, play many roles in mathematics and physics. By the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, they are essentially modular…
Let $\mathbb{A}=\mathbb{F}_{q}[T]$ be the polynomial ring over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, and $\mathbb{A}_{+}$ be the set of monic polynomials in $\mathbb{A}$. In this paper, we show that a large class of arithmetic functions in…
For two arithmetical functions $f$ and $g$, we study the convolution sum of the form $\sum_{n \le N} f(n) g(n+h)$ in the context of its asymptotic formula with explicit error terms. Here we introduce the concept of finite Ramanujan…
We revisit old conjectures of Fermat and Euler regarding representation of integers by binary quadratic form x^2+5y^2. Making use of Ramanujan's_1\psi_1 summation formula we establish a new Lambert series identity for…
For the quantum integer [n]_q = 1+q+q^2+... + q^{n-1} there is a natural polynomial multiplication such that [mn]_q = [m]_q \otimes_q [n]_q. This multiplication is given by the functional equation f_{mn}(q) = f_m(q) f_n(q^m), defined on a…
We studied Ramanujan series $\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}G(q)c_q(a)$, where $c_q(a)$ is the well-known Ramanujan sum and the complex numbers $G(q)$, as $q\in$N, are the Ramanujan coefficients; of course, we mean, implicitly, that the series…
In this paper, we consider a general form of the analogue of Ramanujan's sum in the ring of polynomials over a finite field. We first prove some multiplicative properties of such functions before considering their finite Fourier series and…
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…
Applying the triplicate form of the extended Gould--Hsu inverse series relations to Dougall's summation theorem for the well--poised $_7F_6$-series, we establish, from the dual series, several interesting Ramanujan--like infinite series…
In the first part we establish a connection between the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula and the Rota-Baxter functional equation. In the second part we give a simple proof of a formula, due to Ramanujan, on the summation of certain…
We state and prove a number of unilateral and bilateral $q$-series identities and explore some of their consequences. Those include certain generalizations of the $q$-binomial sum which also generalize the $q$-Airy function introduced by…
