Motivated by the telescoping proofs of two identities of Andrews and Warnaar, we find that infinite q-shifted factorials can be incorporated into the implementation of the q-Zeilberger algorithm in the approach of Chen, Hou and Mu to prove…

In this paper, we provide suitable characterisations of pairs of weights $(V,W),$ known as Bessel pairs, that ensure the validity of weighted Hardy-type inequalities. The abstract approach adopted here makes it possible to establish such…

A pair $(a, b)$ of positive integers is a pythagorean pair if $a^2 + b^2$ is a square. A pythagorean pair $(a, b)$ is called a pythapotent pair of degree $h$ if there is another pythagorean pair $(k,l)$, which is not a multiple of $(a,b)$,…

We give the new connection formula for the divergent bilateral basic hypergeometric series ${}_2\psi_2(a_1,a_2;b_1;q,x)$ by the using of the $q$-Borel-Laplace resummation method and Slater's formula. The connection coefficients are given by…

We establish a new identity linking Bernoulli, Stirling (first kind), and Bessel (first kind) numbers: \[ \sum_{k=0}^{n} 2^{\,n-k}\,s(n,k)\,B_k \;=\; \sum_{k=0}^{n} b(n,k)\,\frac{(-1)^k\,k!}{k+1}. \] This parallels the classical…

This is a paper published in 2001 based on a talk given in 1999 celebrating the 50th anniversary of W. N. Bailey's influential q-series paper "Identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type". In no more than 13 pages I give a brief but reasonably…

We develop the notion of Wilf-Zeilberger seeds as a powerful framework for generating WZ-pairs and for lifting classical hypergeometric identities to the $q$-setting. As an application, we systematically obtain a large family of…

The weighted Delannoy numbers are defined by the recurrence relation $f_{m,n}=\alpha f_{m-1,n}+ \beta f_{m,n-1}+ \gamma f_{m-1,n-1}$ if $m n>0 $, with $f_{m,n}=\alpha^m \beta^n$ if $n m=0$. In this work, we study a generalization of these…

We establish some new bilateral double-sum Rogers-Ramanujan identities involving parameters. As applications, these identities yield several new multi-sum Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. Our proofs utilize the theory of basic…

Let $\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\beta)$ be algebraic number fields. We describe a new method to find (if they exist) all isomorphisms, $\mathbb{Q}(\beta) \rightarrow \mathbb{Q}(\alpha)$. The algorithm is particularly efficient if…

Given two real numbers $q_0,q_1>1$ satisfying $q_0+q_1\geq q_0q_1$ and two real numbers $d_0\ne d_1$, by a {double-base expansion} of a real number $x$ we mean a sequence $(i_k)\in \{0,1\}^{\infty}$ such that \begin{equation*}…

We show that several classical bilateral summation and transformation formulas have semi-finite forms. We obtain these semi-finite forms from unilateral summation and transformation formulas. Our method can be applied to derive Ramanujan's…

In the realm of Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics and its q-generalisation for complex systems, we analyse observed sequences of q-triplets, or q-doublets if one of them is the unity, in terms of cycles of successive M\"obius…

We give a brief account of the key properties of elliptic hypergeometric integrals -- a relatively recently discovered top class of transcendental special functions of hypergeometric type. In particular, we describe an elliptic…

Recently, Andrews and Berkovich introduced a trinomial version of Bailey's lemma. In this note we show that each ordinary Bailey pair gives rise to a trinomial Bailey pair. This largely widens the applicability of the trinomial Bailey lemma…

These lecture notes were written for a mini-course that was designed to introduce students and researchers to {\it $q$-series,} which are also called {\it basic hypergeometric series} because of the parameter $q$ that is used as a base in…

We conjecture a formula for the symmetric function $\frac{[n-k]_t}{[n]_t}\Delta_{h_m}\Delta_{e_{n-k}}\omega(p_n)$ in terms of decorated partially labelled square paths. This can be seen as a generalization of the square conjecture of Loehr…

Using the theory of Calabi-Yau differential equations we obtain all the parameters of Ramanujan-Sato-like series for $1/\pi^2$ as $q$-functions valid in the complex plane. Then we use these q-functions together with a conjecture to find new…

We obtain an estimate for the cubic Weyl sum which improves the bound obtained from Weyl differencing for short ranges of summation. In particular, we show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists some $\delta>0$ such that for any coprime…

In the present paper, we consider (p,q)-analogue of the Beta operators and using it, we propose the integral modification of the generalized Bernstein polynomials. We estimate some direct results on local and global approximation. Also, we…
