In this article we give the theoretical background for generating Ramanujan type $1/\pi^{2\nu}$ formulas. As applications of our method we give a general construction of $1/\pi^4$ series and examples of $1/\pi^6$ series. We also study the…
Exton [Ganita 54(2003)13-15] obtained numerous new quadratic transformations involving hypergeometric functions of order two and of higher order by applying various known classical summation theorems to a general transformation formula…
With the use of the $(f,g)$-matrix inversion under specializations that $f=1-xy,g=y-x$, we establish an $(1-xy,y-x)$-expansion formula. When specialized to basic hypergeometric series, this $(1-xy,y-x)$-expansion formula leads us to some…
Using the theory of functions of several variables and $q$-calculus, we prove an expansion theorem for the analytic function in several variables which satisfies a system of $q$-partial differential equations. Some curious applications of…
Ramanujan (1916) expressed quotients of certain q-series as polynomials of Eisenstein series of degree 2, 4, 6 and derived the famous Ramanujan's differential equations. We continue this research with the variants of Eisenstein-type series…
We present an approach to sums of random Hermitian matrices via the theory of spherical functions for the Gelfand pair $(\mathrm{U}(n) \ltimes \mathrm{Herm}(n), \mathrm{U}(n))$. It is inspired by a similar approach of Kieburg and K\"osters…
S. Ramanujan introduced a technique in 1913 for providing analytic expressions for certain Mellin-type integrals which is now known as Ramanujan's Master Theorem. This technique was communicated through his "Quarterly Reports" and has a…
We generalize recent matrix-based factorization theorems for Lambert series generating functions generating the coefficients $(f \ast 1)(n)$ for some arithmetic function $f$. Our new factorization theorems provide analogs to these…
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 this paper we show that various continued fractions for the quotient of general Ramanujan functions $G(aq,b,\l q)/G(a,b,\l)$ may be derived from each other via Bauer-Muir transformations. The separate convergence of numerators and…
Starting from equations obeyed by functions involving the first or the second derivatives of the biconfluent Heun function, we construct two expansions of the solutions of the biconfluent Heun equation in terms of incomplete Beta functions.…
We obtain an exact formula for the Fourier transform of multiradial functions, i.e., functions of the form $\Phi(x)=\phi(|x_1|, \dots, |x_m|)$, $x_i\in \mathbf R^{n_i}$, in terms of the Fourier transform of the function $\phi$ on $\mathbf…
We generalize Watson's $ q $-analogue of Ramanujan's Entry 40 continued fraction by deriving solutions to a $ {}_{10} \phi_9 $ series contiguous relation and applying Pincherle's theorem. Watson's result is recovered as a special…
The goal of this work is to formulate a systematical method for looking for the simple closed form or continued fraction representation of a class of rational series. As applications, we obtain the continued fraction representations for the…
We consider two sequences $a(n)$ and $b(n)$, $1\leq n<\infty$, generated by Dirichlet series of the forms $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)}{\lambda_n^{s}}\qquad\text{and}\qquad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{b(n)}{\mu_n^{s}},$$ satisfying a…
Ramanujan's 1920 last letter to Hardy contains seventeen examples of mock theta functions which he organized into three "orders." The most famous of these is the third-order function $f(q)$ which has received the most attention of any…
We prove a formula for the Taylor series coefficients of a zero of the sum of a complex-exponent polynomial and a base function which is a general holomorphic function with a simple zero. Such a Taylor series is more general than a Puiseux…
