Let $\mathbb R_t[\theta]$ be the ring generated over $\mathbb R$ by $\cos\theta$ and $\sin\theta$, and $\mathbb R_t(\theta)$ be its quotient field. In this paper we study the ways in which an element p of $\mathbb R_t[\theta]$ can be…
We evaluate the classic sum $\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} e^{-\pi n^2}$. The novelty of our approach is that it does not require any prior knowledge about modular forms, elliptic functions or analytic continuations. Even the $\Gamma$ function, in…
In this paper, we derive a unified generalization of Ramanujan's transformation identities for the theta function $f(a,b)$, originally appearing in Ramanujan's Notebooks, Parts~III and IV. Using an approach based on residue-class…
The modular transformations of Ramanujan's tenth order mock theta functions are computed, beginning from Choi's Hecke-type identites and using Zwegers' results on indefinite theta series. Explicit completions and shadows are found as an…
The generating function of partitions with repeated (resp. distinct) parts such that each odd part is less than twice the smallest part is shown to be the third order mock theta function $\omega(q)$ (resp. $\nu(-q)$). Similar results for…
We introduce a basis of the symmetric functions that evaluates to the (irreducible) characters of the symmetric group, just as the Schur functions evaluate to the irreducible characters of $GL_n$ modules. Our main result gives three…
In this paper, we show that the classical Cassini and Catalan identities for Fibonacci numbers arise naturally from a single quadratic theta-function identity of Ramanujan. Expanding the identity…
In this paper, we generalize the partial fraction decomposition which is fundamental in the theory of multiple zeta values, and prove a relation between Tornheim's double zeta functions of three complex variables. As applications, we give…
The Riemann theta function is a complex-valued function of g complex variables. It appears in the construction of many (quasi-) periodic solutions of various equations of mathematical physics. In this paper, algorithms for its computation…
Applying the theory of elliptic functions we establish two Jacobi theta function identities. From these identities we confirm two q-trigonometric identities conjectured by Gosper. As an application, we give a new and simple proof of a…
In this expository note, we revisit several classical arithmetic functions - namely Euler's totient function, the divisor sum functions and Dedekind's $\psi$-function - within a unifying algebraic framework that highlights their connections…
The Kronecker coefficients are the structure constants for the restriction of irreducible representations of the general linear group $GL(n m)$ into irreducibles for the subgroup $GL(n)\times GL(m)$. In this work we study the…
We use a generalized Lambert series identity due to the first author to present q-series proofs of recent results of Imamoglu, Raum and Richter concerning recursive formulas for the coefficients of two 3rd order mock theta functions.…
In this article, we define functions analogous to Ramanujan's function $f(n)$ defined in his famous paper "Modular equations and approximations to $\pi$". We then use these new functions to study Ramanujan's series for $1/\pi$ associated…
We present completions of mock theta functions to harmonic weak Maass forms of weight $1/2$ and algebraic formulas for the coefficients of mock theta functions. We give several harmonic weak Maass forms of weight $1/2$ that have mock theta…
A new, seemingly useful presentation of zeta functions on complex tori is derived by using contour integration. It is shown to agree with the one obtained by using the Chowla-Selberg series formula, for which an alternative proof is thereby…
We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…
Using Cauchy's Integral Theorem as a basis, what may be a new series representation for Dirichlet's function $\eta(s)$, and hence Riemann's function $\zeta(s)$, is obtained in terms of the Exponential Integral function $E_{s}(i\kappa)$ of…
Jacobi theta functions with rational characteristics can be viewed as vector-valued Jacobi forms. Theta relations usually correspond to different constructions of certain Jacobi forms. From this observation, we extract a new approach, which…
