In 1947 Nathan Fine gave a beautiful product for the number of binomial coefficients $\binom{n}{m}$, for $m$ in the range $0 \leq m \leq n$, that are not divisible by $p$. We give a matrix product that generalizes Fine's formula,…
Most of the theoretical physics known today is described by using a small number of differential equations. For linear systems, different forms of the hypergeometric or the confluent hypergeometric equations often suffice to describe the…
The transformation theory of the Appell $F_2(a,b_1,b_2;c_1,c_2;x,y)$ double hypergeometric function is used to obtain a set of series representations of $F_2$ which provide an efficient way to evaluate $F_2$ for real values of its arguments…
In this paper we study those polynomials orthogonal with respect to a particular weight over the union of disjoint intervals first introduced by N.I. Akhiezer, via a reformulation as a matrix factorization or Riemann-Hilbert problem. This…
We derive a number of summation and transformation formulas for elliptic hypergeometric series on the root systems A_n, C_n and D_n. In the special cases of classical and q-series, our approach leads to new elementary proofs of the…
We state and prove three general formulas allowing to transform formal finite sums into formal continued fractions and apply them to generalize certain expansions in continued fractions given by Hone and Varona.
In this paper we consider a transformation $L_a$ of sequences of complex numbers. We find the inverse transformation of $L_a$ as well as the inverse of a related transformation $\tilde{L}_a$. We explore a connection to the binomial…
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 the present paper, we establish a general transformation for $q$-series which contains L. Wang et al's transformation involved in Nahm series. As direct applications, some concrete new transformation formulas for the ${}_{r+1}\phi_r$…
We present a new combinatorial formula for Hall-Littlewood functions associated with the affine root system of type $\tilde A_{n-1}$, i.e. corresponding to the affine Lie algebra $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_n$. Our formula has the form of a sum…
The multiple gamma function $\Gamma_n$, defined by a recurrence-functional equation as a generalization of the Euler gamma function, was originally introduced by Kinkelin, Glaisher, and Barnes around 1900. Today, due to the pioneer work of…
We present a new way to factor the dirichlet convolution for completely multiplicative functions whitch led us to constructing a ring that arise from the operations involved in the factorisation. We will conclude by some identities that was…
We use a specialization of Ramanujan's ${}_1\psi_1$ summation to give a new proof of a recent formula of Hickerson and Mortenson which expands a special family of Hecke-type double sums in terms of Appell-Lerch sums and theta functions.
Using a general $q$-series expansion, we derive some nontrivial $q$-formulas involving many infinite products. A multitude of Hecke--type series identities are derived. Some general formulas for sums of any number of squares are given. A…
In this paper we obtain large $z$ asymptotic expansions in the complex plane for the tau function corresponding to special function solutions of the Painlev\'e II differential equation. Using the fact that these tau functions can be written…
By using two known transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series, we establish a direct extension of Bailey's $_6\psi_6$-series identity. Subsequently, it and Milne's identity are employed to drive multi-variable generalizations…

Inversion theorems of Wiener type are essential tools in analysis and number theory. We derive a weighted version of an inversion theorem of Wiener type for general Dirichlet series from that of Edwards from 1957, and we outline an…
