Let $(a;q)_n=\prod_{0\le k<n}(1-aq^k)$ for n=0,1,2,.... Define q-Euler numbers $E_n(q)$, q-Sali\'e numbers $S_n(q)$ and q-Carlitz numbers $C_n(q)$ as follows: $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}E_n(q)\frac{x^n}{(q,q)_n}…

In this short note, we show an analogue of one of Alladi's and Dawsey's formulas with respect to the Ramanujan sum $c_n(m)$ for $m\geq1$. Their formulas may be viewed as the case $m=1$ in our result.

Ramanujan sums have been studied and generalized by several authors. For example, Nowak studied these sums over quadratic number fields, and Grytczuk defined that on semigroups. In this note, we deduce some properties on sums of generalized…

Ramanujan derived the well known divergent-sum of integers in more than one way. We generalise the informal method to higher powers of the Riemann zeta function through a study of the Eulerian numbers in particular. Within the context of…

In his lost notebook, Ramanujan listed 5 identities related to the false theta function $$f(q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^nq^{n(n+1)/2}.$$ A new combinatorial interpretation and proof of one of these identities is given. The methods of the…

Let $\beta$ be a positive integer. A generalization of the Ramanujan sum due to Cohen is given by \begin{align} c_{q,\beta }(n) := \sum\limits_{{{(h,{q^\beta })}_\beta } = 1} {{e^{2\pi inh/{q^\beta }}}}, \nonumber \end{align} where $h$…

We show that certain terminating $_{6}\phi_5$ series can be factorized into a product of two $_{3}\phi_{2}$ series. As applications we prove a summation formula for a product of two $q$-Delannoy numbers along with some congruences for sums…

We derive two general transformations for certain basic hypergeometric series from the recurrence formulae for the partial numerators and denominators of two $q$-continued fractions previously investigated by the authors. By then…

In this paper, we investigate applications of the ordinary derivative operator, instead of the $q$-derivative operator, to the theory of $q$-series. As main results, many new summation and transformation formulas are established which are…

Ramanujan's $q$-continued fractions are a central part of Ramanujan's development of basic hypergeometric series. They appear in Chapter 16 of Part III and Chapter 32 of Part V of {\em Ramanujan's Notebooks} edited by Berndt, and in Volume…

We give a detailed study of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of $r$-even arithmetic functions, which form a subspace of the space of $r$-periodic arithmetic functions. We consider the DFT of sequences of $r$-even functions, their mean…

An arithmetical function $f$ is said to be even (mod r) if f(n)=f((n,r)) for all n\in\Z^+, where (n, r) is the greatest common divisor of n and r. We adopt a linear algebraic approach to show that the Discrete Fourier Transform of an even…

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…

Let $C_n(q)$ be the number of ideals of codimension $n$ of $\mathbb{F}_q\left[x, y, x^{-1}, y^{-1} \right]$, where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is the finite field with $q$ elements. Kassel and Reutenauer [KasselReutenauer2015A] proved that $C_n(q)$ is a…

From two q-summation formulas we deduce certain series expansion formulas involving the q-gamma function. With these formulas we can give q-analogues of series expansions for certain constants.

We introduce signed q-analogs of Tornheim's double series, and evaluate them in terms of double q-Euler sums. As a consequence, we provide explicit evaluations of signed and unsigned Tornheim double series, and correct some mistakes in the…

A simple integration by parts and telescopic cancellation leads to a rigorous derivation of the first 2 terms for the error in Ramanujan's asymptotic series for the nth partial sum of the harmonic series. Then Kummer's transformation gives…

We provide a general theorem for evaluating trigonometric Dirichlet series of the form $\sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{f (\pi n \tau)}{n^s}$, where $f$ is an arbitrary product of the elementary trigonometric functions, $\tau$ a real quadratic…
