In Entry 16, Chapter 16 of his notebooks, Ramanujan himself gave a formula for the convergents of the famous Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction. We provide a similar formula for the convergents of a more general continued fraction, namely…
We study a continued fraction due to Ramanujan, that he recorded as Entry 12 in Chapter 16 of his second notebook. It is presented in Part III of Berndt's volumes on Ramanujan's notebooks. We give two alternate approaches to proving…
Ramanujan recorded four reciprocity formulas for the Roger-Ramanujan continued fraction. Two reciprocity formulas each are also associated with the Ramanujan--G\"ollnitz--Gordon continued fraction and a level-13 analog of the…
In this article we present evaluations of continued fractions studied by Ramanujan. More precisely we give the complete polynomial equations of Rogers-Ramanujan and other continued fractions, using tools from the elementary theory of the…
In this paper, we study a class of orthogonal polynomials defined by a three-term recurrence relation with periodic coefficients. We derive explicit formulas for the generating function, the associated continued fraction, the orthogonality…
The aim of this paper is to study the convergence and divergence of the Rogers-Ramanujan and the generalized Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions on the unit circle. We provide an example of an uncountable set of measure zero on which the…
We present here a way to evaluate a very wide class of integrals relating Ramanujans continued fraction and q-product. To do this we explore briefily a differential equation, which relates these two functions
Stieltjes' work on continued fractions and the orthogonal polynomials related to continued fraction expansions is summarized and an attempt is made to describe the influence of Stieltjes' ideas and work in research done after his death,…
The main objects of the investigation presented in this paper are branched-continued-fraction representations of ratios of contiguous hypergeometric series and type II multiple orthogonal polynomials on the step-line with respect to linear…
We use the method of generating functions to find the limit of a $q$-continued fraction, with 4 parameters, as a ratio of certain $q$-series. We then use this result to give new proofs of several known continued fraction identities,…
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…
A contiguous relation for complementry pairs of very well poised balanced ${}_{10}\phi_9$ basic hypergeometric functions is used to derive an explict expression for the associated continued fraction. This generalizes the continued fraction…
We find, in the form of a continued fraction, the generating function for the number of (132)-avoiding permutations that have a given number of (123) patterns, and show how to extend this to permutations that have exactly one (132) pattern.…
The primary purpose of this paper is to provide a survey of properties, values, identities, and generalizations of the Rogers--Ramanujan continued fraction, which is closely related to the Rogers--Ramanujan identities. Many of these results…
We derive two general transformations for certain basic hypergeometric series from the recurrence formulae for the partial numerators and denominators of two $q$-continued fractions previously investigated by the authors. By then…
Several continued fraction expansions for $e$ have been produced by an automated conjecture generator (ACG) called \emph{The Ramanujan Machine}. Some of these were already known, some have recently been proved and some remain unproven.…
In 1998, Michael Hirschhorn discovered 5-dissections of the Rogers--Ramanujan continued fraction $R(q)$ and its reciprocal. In this paper, we obtain the 5-dissections for functions $R(q)R(q^2)^2$ and $R(q)^2/R(q^2)$, which are essentially…
We prove some new modular identities for the Rogers\textendash Ramanujan continued fraction. For example, if $R(q)$ denotes the Rogers\textendash Ramanujan continued fraction, then…
Via the MC-algorithm, in this paper we produce seven continued fraction formulae involving products and quotients of three gamma functions with three parameters, and another is an extension of Entry 34 in Chapter 12 of Ramanujan's second…
We investigate a collection of orthonormal functions that encodes information about the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. When suitably ordered these functions form a complete system of martingale differences and are a special…
