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…
The Riemann theta function is a complex-valued function of g complex variables. It appears in the construction of many (quasi-) periodic solutions of various equations of mathematical physics. In this paper, algorithms for its computation…
We prove the transformation laws of the four Jacobi theta functions using Gordon's proof for the transformation law of the Dedekind eta function.
We study the Taylor expansion around the point $x=1$ of a classical modular form, the Jacobi theta constant $\theta_3$. This leads naturally to a new sequence $(d(n))_{n=0}^\infty=1,1,-1,51,849,-26199,\ldots$ of integers, which arise as the…
We give a new proof for a product formula of Jacobi which turns out to be equivalent to a $q$-trigonometric product which was stated without proof by Gosper. We apply this formula to derive a $q$-analogue for the Gauss multiplication…
We show that the gradient and the hessian of the Riemann theta function in dimension n can be combined to give a theta function of order n+1 and modular weight (n+5)/2 defined on the theta divisor. It can be seen that the zero locus of this…
We consider a generalization of Jacobi theta series and show that every such function is a quasi-Jacobi form. Under certain conditions we establish transformation laws for these functions with respect to the Jacobi group and prove such…
In this paper we obtain a set of five new transmutations of the mother formula. Further, we obtain the second set of ten exact metafunctional equations by crossbreeding on every two elements of the previous set. Elements of the last set…
This paper is an annotated list of transformation properties and identities satisfied by the four theta functions $\theta _1$, $\theta _2$, $\theta _3$, $\theta _4$ of one complex variable, presented in a ready-to-use form. An attempt is…
The Jacobi theta-functions admit a definition through the autonomous differential equations (dynamical system); not only through the famous Fourier theta-series. We study this system in the framework of Hamiltonian dynamics and find…
We extend the concepts of the associator and commutator from algebras with a binary multiplication law to algebras with a ternary multiplication law using cube roots of unity. By analogy with the Jacobi identity for the binary commutator,…
The Jacobian elliptic functions are generalized and applied to a nonlinear eigenvalue problem with $p$-Laplacian. The eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenfunction are represented in terms of common parameters, and a complete description…
In this paper, we use basic asymptotic analysis to establish some uniform asymptotic formulas for the Fourier coefficients of the inverse of Jacobi theta functions. In particular, we answer and improve some problems suggested and…
We prove that n independent abelian functions admit an algebraic addition theorem, with no appeal to theta functions.
We introduce two remarkable identities written in terms of single commutators and anticommutators for any three elements of arbitrary associative algebra. One is a consequence of other (fundamental identity). From the fundamental identity,…
Capparelli conjectured two modular identities for partitions whose parts satisfy certain gap conditions, where were motivated by the calculation of characters for the standard modules of certain affine Lie algebras and by vertex operator…
We use the Jacobi theta function to give a representation of the modulus of the Riemann $\xi$ function. Based on this modulus representation, we show that the Riemann hypothesis is equivalent to the validity of a family of polynomial…
Starting from the addition formula for little $q$-Jacobi polynomials, we derive a new addition formula for the little $q$-Bessel functions. The result is obtained by the use of a limit transition. We also establish a product formula for…
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…
