In this paper, we derive a unified generalization of Ramanujan's transformation identities for the theta function $f(a,b)$, originally appearing in Ramanujan's Notebooks, Parts~III and IV. Using an approach based on residue-class…

In this article we study properties of Ramanujan's mock theta functions that can be expressed in Lerch sums. We mainly show that each Lerch sum is actually the integral of a Jacobian theta function (here we show that for $\vartheta_3(t,q)$…

We call $R_G(a):=\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}G(q)c_q(a)$ the 'Ramanujan series', of coefficient $G:$N$\to$C, where $c_q(a)$ is the well-known Ramanujan sum. We study the convergence of this series (a preliminary step, to study Ramanujan expansions…

Via symbolic computation we deduce 97 new type series for powers of $\pi$ related to Ramanujan-type series. Here are three typical examples: $$\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{P(k) \binom{2k}k\binom{3k}k…

In this paper we derive rapidly converging series for Catalan's constant and for Ap\'ery's constant. The method may be easily generalised to produce new series representations for other values of the Riemann zeta function and the Dirichlet…

Building on the mapping relations between analytic functions and periodic functions using the abstract operators $\cos(h\partial_x)$ and $\sin(h\partial_x)$, and by defining the Zeta and related functions including the Hurwitz Zeta function…

There exists an infinite series of ratios by which one can derive the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ from Catalan numbers and central binomial coefficients which appear in the terms of the series. While admittedly the derivation is not…

We intimate deeper connections between the Riemann zeta and gamma functions than often reported and further derive a new formula for expressing the value of $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of zeta at other fractional points. This paper also…

Using the WZ-method we find some of the easiest Ramanujan's formulae and also some new interesting Ramanujan-like sums.

We define bilateral series related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$. Then, we conjecture a property of them and give some applications.

De Bruijn and Newman introduced a deformation of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$, and found a real constant $\Lambda$ which encodes the movement of the zeros of $\zeta(s)$ under the deformation. The Riemann hypothesis (RH) is…

In this paper we investigate the monotonicity properties related to the ratio of gamma functions, from which some related asymptotics and inequalities are established. Some special cases also confirm the conjectures of C.-P. Chen…

We obtain asymptotic formulae for the second discrete moments of the Riemann zeta function over arithmetic progressions $\frac{1}{2} + i(a n + b)$. It reveals noticeable relation between the discrete moments and the continuous moment of the…

For a fixed nonnegative integer $u$ and positive integer $n$, we investigate the symmetric function \[\sum_{d|n} \left(c_d(\tfrac{n}{d})\right)^u p_d^{\tfrac{n}{d}},\] where $p_n$ denotes the $n$th power sum symmetric function, and $c_d(r)$…

We seek random versions of some classical theorems on complex approximation by polynomials and rational functions, as well as investigate properties of random compact sets in connection to complex approximation.

We represent the Riemann zeta function in the half-plane $\Re s >1$ via series whose terms admit geometrically decreasing bounds. Due to an underlying recurrence relation, which is used to compute coefficients entering into the terms, the…

In this note, by making use of a known hypergeometric series identity, I prove two Ramanujan-type series for the Catalan's constant. The convergence rate of these central binomial series surpasses those of all known similar series,…
