For every positive integer $n$, Sita Ramaiah's identity states that \medskip \begin{equation*} \sum_{a_1, a_2, a_1+a_2 \in (\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^*} \gcd(a_1+a_2-1,n) = \phi_2(n)\sigma_0(n) \; \text{ where } \; \phi_2(n)= \sum_{a_1, a_2,…
The normal distribution is well-known for several results that it is the only to fulfil. The aim of the present paper is to show that many of these characterizations actually follow from the fact that the derivative of the log-density of…
Previously, we proved an identity for theta functions of degree eight, and several applications of it were also discussed. This identity is a natural extension of the addition formula for the Weierstrass sigma-function. In this paper we…
In this paper we generalize an identity first given by Heinrich Eduard Heine in his treatise, {\it Handbuch der Kugelfunctionen, Theorie und Anwendungen (1881), which gives a Fourier series for $1/[z-\cos\psi]^{1/2}$, for $z,\psi\in\R$, and…
We consider two sequences $a(n)$ and $b(n)$, $1\leq n<\infty$, generated by Dirichlet series $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)}{\lambda_n^{s}}\qquad\text{and}\qquad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{b(n)}{\mu_n^{s}},$$ satisfying a familiar functional…
In 2008, Lehner, Wettig, Guhr and Wei conjectured a power series identity and showed that it implied a determinantal formula for a Bessel-type integral over the unitary supergroup. The integral is the supersymmetric extension of Bessel-type…
In this paper, we first give a simple combinatorial proof of Tepper's identity. Then, as a by product of this interesting identity we present another proof of the well-known Wilson's identity in number theory. Finally, we obtain a…
We give closed forms for several families of Heun functions related to classical entropies. By comparing two expressions of the same Heun function, we get several combinatorial identities generalizing some classical ones.
We propose a generalization of Bailey's lemma, useful for proving $q$-series identities. As an application, generalizations of Euler's identity, the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, and the Andrews-Gordon identities are derived. This…
Let $\gcd(k,j)$ denote the greatest common divisor of the integers $k$ and $j$, and let $r$ be any fixed positive integer. Define $$ M_r(x; f) := \sum_{k\leq x}\frac{1}{k^{r+1}}\sum_{j=1}^{k}j^{r}f(\gcd(j,k)) $$ for any large real number…
We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
Determining the explicit forms and modularity for string functions and branching coefficients for Kac--Moody algebras after Kac, Peterson, and Wakimoto is an important problem. For positive admissible-level string functions for the affine…
We consider a new identity involving integrals and sums of Bessel functions. The identity provides new ways to evaluate integrals of products of two Bessel functions. The identity is remarkably simple and powerful since the summand and…
Let $\Phi:V\to V\otimes U$ be an intertwining operator between representations of a simple Lie algebra (quantum group, affine Lie algebra). We define its generalized character to be the following function on the Cartan subalgebra with…
Euler's classic partition identity states that the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts. We develop a new generalization of this identity, which yields a previous…
In this paper we extend the notion of Melham sum to the Pell and Pell-Lucas sequences. While the proofs of general statements rely on the binomial theorem, we prove some spacial cases by the known Pell identities. We also give extensions of…
In this paper, we use the Lambert series generating function for Euler's totient function to introduce a new identity for the number of $1$'s in the partitions of $n$. A new expansion for Euler's partition function $p(n)$ is derived in this…
We give generalizations of a finite version of Euler's pentagonal number theorem and of a q-identity of Gauss.
A generalization of Newton's identity on symmetric functions is given. Using the generalized Newton identity we give a unified method to show the existence of Hall-Littlewood, Jack and Macdonald polynomials. We also give a simple proof of…
Identity theorem for analytic complex functions says that a function is uniquely defined by its values on a set that contains a density point. The paper presents sufficient conditions for classes of real analytic functions that ensures…
