Many $\mathbb{Q}$-linear relations exist between multiple zeta values, the most interesting of which are various weighted sum formulas. In this paper, we generalized these to Euler sums and some other variants of multiple zeta values by…

Andrews, Dyson, and Hickerson showed that 2 $q$-hypergeometric series, going back to Ramanujan, are related to real quadratic fields, which explains interesting properties of their Fourier coefficients. There is also an interesting relation…

We present a proof of a combinatorial conjecture from the second author's Ph.D. thesis. The proof relies on binomial and multinomial sums identities. We also discuss the relevance of the conjecture in the context of PAC-Bayesian machine…

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,…

An ordered $r$-matching is an $r$-uniform hypergraph matching equipped with an ordering on its vertices. These objects can be viewed as natural generalisations of $r$-dimensional orders. The theory of ordered 2-matchings is well-developed…

Recently, Z.-W. Sun introduced two kinds of polynomials related to the Delannoy numbers, and proved some supercongruences on sums involving those polynomials. We deduce new summation formulas for squares of those polynomials and use them to…

In this paper, we prove two recently conjectured supercongruences (modulo $p^3$, where $p$ is any prime greater than $3$) of Zhi-Hong Sun on truncated sums involving the Domb numbers. Our proofs involve a number of ingredients such as…
