We introduce and study a one-parameter generalization of the q-Whittaker symmetric functions. This is a family of multivariate symmetric polynomials, whose construction may be viewed as an application of the procedure of fusion from…
We revisit old conjectures of Fermat and Euler regarding representation of integers by binary quadratic form x^2+5y^2. Making use of Ramanujan's_1\psi_1 summation formula we establish a new Lambert series identity for…
Let $\{q_n\}_{n=0}^\infty\subset [0,1]$ satisfy $q_0=0$, $\sum_{n=0}^\infty q_n=1$, and $\gcd\{n\geq 1\mid q_n\neq 0\}=1$. We consider the following process: Let $x$ be a real number. We first set $x=0$. Then $x$ is increased by $i$ with…
Chu has recently shown that the Abel lemma on summations by parts can serve as the underlying relation for Bailey's ${}_6\psi_6$ bilateral summation formula. In other words, the Abel lemma spells out the telescoping nature of the…
Motivated by a recent paper of Liu and Ma, we describe a number of general WP-Bailey chains. We show that many of the existing WP-Bailey chains (or branches of the WP-Bailey tree), including chains found by Andrews, Warnaar and Liu and Ma,…
By using contiguous relations for basic hypergeometric series, we give simple proofs of Bailey's $_4\phi_3$ summation, Carlitz's $_5\phi_4$ summation, Sears' $_3\phi_2$ to $_5\phi_4$ transformation, Sears' ${}_4\phi_3$ transformations,…
In 2022, Z.-W. Sun defined \begin{equation*} w_k^{(\alpha)}{(x)}=\sum_{j=1}^{k}w(k,j)^{\alpha}x^{j-1}, \end{equation*} where $k,\alpha$ are positive integers and $w(k,j)=\frac{1}{j}\binom{k-1}{j-1}\binom{k+j}{j-1}$. Let $(x)_{0}=1$ and…
We investigate spt-crank-type functions arising from Bailey pairs. We recall four spt-type functions corresponding to the Bailey pairs $A1$, $A3$, $A5$, and $A7$ of Slater and given four new spt-type functions corresponding to Bailey pairs…
We study Bailey pairs construction for hyperbolic hypergeometric integral identities acquired via the duality of lens partitions functions for the three-dimensional $\mathcal N=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories on $S_b^3/\mathbb{Z}_r$. The…
The \emph{$q,t$-Catalan numbers} $C_n(q,t)$ are polynomials in $q$ and $t$ that reduce to the ordinary Catalan numbers when $q=t=1$. These polynomials have important connections to representation theory, algebraic geometry, and symmetric…
The main aim of the present work is to give some interesting the $q$-analogues of various $q$-recurrence relations, $q$-recursion formulas, $q$-partial derivative relations, $q$-integral representations, transformation and summation…
Let $\{q_n^{(\alpha,\beta,m)}(x)\}_{n\ge 0}$ be the orthonormal polynomials respect to the Sobolev-type inner product \begin{equation*} \langle f,g\rangle_{\alpha,\beta,m}=\sum_{k=0}^m \int_{-1}^{1}f^{(k)}(x)g^{(k)}(x)\,…
We derive weighted summation identities involving the second order recurrence sequence $\{w_n\} =\{ w_n(a,b; p, q)\}$ defined by $w_0 = a,\,w_1 = b;\,w_n = pw_{n - 1} - qw_{n - 2}\, (n \ge 2)$, where $a$, $b$, $p$ and $q$ are arbitrary…
Several new transformations for q-binomial coefficients are found, which have the special feature that the kernel is a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients. By studying the group-like properties of these positivity preserving…
We prove some new semi-finite forms of bilateral basic hypergeometric series. One of them yields in a direct limit Bailey's celebrated ${}_6\psi_6$ summation formula, answering a question recently raised by Chen and Fu ({\em Semi-Finite…
Through a systematic approach on generating Wilf-Zeilberger-pairs, we prove some hypergeometric identities conjectures due to Z.W. Sun, J. Guillera and Y. Zhao etc., including two Ramanujan-$1/\pi^4$, one $1/\pi^3$ formulas as well as a…
We provide an alternate approach to obtaining expansion formulas on the lines of the well-poised Bailey lemma. We recover results due to Spiridonov and Warnaar and one new formula of this type. These formulas contain an arbitrary sequence…
In the present paper, we establish a general transformation for $q$-series which contains L. Wang et al's transformation involved in Nahm series. As direct applications, some concrete new transformation formulas for the ${}_{r+1}\phi_r$…
We study multivariable (bilateral) basic hypergeometric series associated with (type $A$) Macdonald polynomials. We derive several transformation and summation properties for such series including analogues of Heine's ${}_2\phi_1$…
We solve the lifting problem in C^*-algebras for many sets of relations that include the relations x_j^{N_j} = 0 on each variable. The remaining relations must be of the form \| p(x_1,...,x_n) \| \leq C for C a positive constant and p a…
