This paper provides a survey of particular values of Ramanujan's theta function $\varphi(q)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}q^{n^2}$, when $q=e^{-\pi\sqrt{n}}$, where $n$ is a positive rational number. First, descriptions of the tools used to…
We describe the story of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities; being known for 85 years and having about 130 pure mathematics proofs, suddenly entering physics when Rodney Baxter solved the Hard Hexagon Model in Statistical Mechanics in 1980. We…
We make a summary of the different types of proofs adding some new ideas. In addition we conjecture some relations which could be necessary in "modular type proofs" (not still found) of the Ramanujan-like series for 1/\pi^2.
We prove two new summation formulae of Hall-Littlewood polynomials over partitions into bounded parts and derive some new multiple $q$-identities of Rogers-Ramanujan type.
In this article we continue a previous work in which we have generalized the Rogers Ramanujan continued fraction (RR) introducing what we call, the Ramanujan-Quantities (RQ). We use the Mathematica package to give several modular equations…
Using Lie theory, Stefano Capparelli conjectured an interesting Rogers-Ramanujan type partition identity in his 1988 Rutgers Ph.D. thesis. The first proof was given by George Andrews, using combinatorial methods. Later, Capparelli was able…
In this article we present a method to implement orthogonal polynomials and many other special functions in Computer Algebra systems enabling the user to work with those functions appropriately, and in particular to verify different types…
On page 206 in his lost notebook, Ramanujan recorded the following enigmatic identity for his theta function $\varphi(q)$: \begin{equation*} \varphi(e^{-7\pi\sqrt{7}}) = 7^{-3/4}\varphi(e^{-\pi\sqrt{7}})\big\{1 + (\quad)^{2/7} +…
We give a commutative algebra viewpoint on Andrews recursive formula for the partitions appearing in "Gordon's identities", which are a generalization of Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Using this approach and differential ideals we conjecture…
Let $R(q)$ be the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction. We give different proofs of two complementary relations for $R(q)$ given by Ramanujan and proved by Watson and Ramanathan. Our proofs only use product expansions for classical Jacobi…
Characters and linear combinations of characters that admit a fermionic sum representation as well as a factorized form are considered for some minimal Virasoro models. As a consequence, various Rogers-Ramanujan type identities are…
The Bailey lemma is a famous tool to prove Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. We use shifted versions of the Bailey lemma to derive $m$-versions of multisum Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. We also apply this method to the Well-Poised…
We state and prove a number of unilateral and bilateral $q$-series identities and explore some of their consequences. Those include certain generalizations of the $q$-binomial sum which also generalize the $q$-Airy function introduced by…
We show that identities involving trigonometric sums recently proved by Harshitha, Vasuki and Yathirajsharma, using Ramanujan's theory of theta functions, were either already in the literature or can be proved easily by adapting results…
We prove a general alternate circular summation formula of theta functions, which implies a great deal of theta-function identities. In particular, we recover several identities in Ramanujan's Notebook from this identity. We also obtain two…
We explain the appearance of Rogers-Ramanujan series inside the tensor product of two basic $A_2^{(2)}$-modules, previously discovered by the first author in [F]. The key new ingredients are $(5,6)$ Virasoro minimal models and twisted…
Using $q$-trinomial coefficients of Andrews and Baxter along with the technique of telescopic expansions, we propose and prove a complete set of polynomial identities of Rogers-Ramanujan type for M(p, p+1) models of conformal field theory…
In a recent work, Andrews defined the singular overpartitions with the goal of presenting an overpartition analogue to the theorems of Rogers--Ramanujan type for ordinary partitions with restricted successive ranks. As a small part of his…
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 give another proof of the second Rogers-Ramanujan identity by Kashiwara crystals.
