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 show connection formulae of local solutions of the Ramanujan equation between the origin and the infinity. These solutions are given by the Ramanujan function, the $q$-Airy function and the divergent basic hypergeometric series…
In this paper, we answer a question of Li, Ngo, and Rhoades concerning a set of $q$-series related to the $q$-hypergeometric series $\sigma$ from Ramanajun's lost notebook. Our results parallel a theorem of Cohen which says that $\sigma$,…
We use the method of generating functions to find the limit of a $q$-continued fraction, with 4 parameters, as a ratio of certain $q$-series. We then use this result to give new proofs of several known continued fraction identities,…
Here we consider the $q$-series coming from the Hall-Littlewood polynomials, \begin{equation*} R_\nu(a,b;q)=\sum_{\substack{\lambda \\[1pt] \lambda_1\leq a}} q^{c|\lambda|} P_{2\lambda}\big(1,q,q^2,\dots;q^{2b+d}\big). \end{equation*} These…
We extend a holomorphic projection argument of our earlier work to prove a novel divisibility result for non-holomorphic congruences of Hurwitz class numbers. This result allows us to establish Ramanujan-type congruences for Hurwitz class…
On page 206 in his lost notebook, Ramanujan recorded a seventh degree identity for his theta function $\varphi(q)$. We give an analogous ninth degree identity. We also provide an application of an entry from his second notebook on a cubic…
We establish a $q$-analogue of Sun--Zhao's congruence on harmonic sums. Based on this $q$-congruence and a $q$-series identity, we prove a congruence conjecture on sums of central $q$-binomial coefficients, which was recently proposed by…
The polynomial Ramanujan sum was first introduced by Carlitz [7], and a generalized version by Cohen [10]. In this paper, we study the arithmetical and analytic properties of these sums, derive various fundamental identities, such as H…
We show with some examples how to prove some Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ in an elementary way by using terminating identities.
We define an overpartition analogue of Gaussian polynomials (also known as $q$-binomial coefficients) as a generating function for the number of overpartitions fitting inside the $M \times N$ rectangle. We call these new polynomials over…
Ramanujan recorded four reciprocity formulas for the Roger-Ramanujan continued fraction. Two reciprocity formulas each are also associated with the Ramanujan--G\"ollnitz--Gordon continued fraction and a level-13 analog of the…
By applying multiplicate forms of the Carlitz inverse series relations to the $q$-Pfaff-Saalsch{\"u}tz summation theorem, we establish twenty five nonterminating $q$-series identities with several of them serving as $q$-analogues of…

In this paper, we utilize operational methods to obtain closed-form solutions for certain classes of integrals in the spirit of Ramanujan's Master Theorem and provide several analogs to it. Although the use of operational calculus makes the…
In Entry 16, Chapter 16 of his notebooks, Ramanujan himself gave a formula for the convergents of the famous Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction. We provide a similar formula for the convergents of a more general continued fraction, namely…
