We state and prove a claim of Ramanujan. As a consequence, a large class of Saalchutzian hypergeometric series is summed in closed form.
Let $ \mathbb{Q}\mathcal{E}_{\mathbb{Z}} $ be the set of power sums whose characteristic roots belong to $ \mathbb{Z} $ and whose coefficients belong to $ \mathbb{Q} $, i.e. $ G : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} $ satisfies…
We consider the generalised Mathieu series \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{n^\gamma}{(n^\lambda+a^\lambda)^\mu}\qquad (\mu>0)\] when the parameters $\lambda$ ($>0$) and $\gamma$ are even integers for large complex $a$ in the sector…
The two Rogers-Ramanujan $q$-series \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{q^{n(n+\sigma)}}{(1-q)\cdots (1-q^n)}, \] where $\sigma=0,1$, play many roles in mathematics and physics. By the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, they are essentially modular…
In this paper, we introduce some explicit approximations for the summation $\sum_{k\leq n}\Omega(k)$, where $\Omega(k)$ is the total number of prime factors of $k$.
We study a generalized class of weighted $k$-regular partitions defined by \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} c_{k, r_1, r_2}(n) q^n = \prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(1 - q^{nk})^{r_1}}{(1 - q^n)^{r_2}}, \] which extends the classical $k$-regular partition…
We deduce new q-series identities by applying inverse relations to certain identities for basic hypergeometric series. The identities obtained themselves do not belong to the hierarchy of basic hypergeometric series. We extend two of our…
We develop a theoretical study of non-terminating hypergeometric summations with one free parameter. Composing various methods in complex and asymptotic analysis, geometry and arithmetic of certain transcendental curves and rational…
We expand on the remark by Andrews on the importance of infinite sums and products in combinatorics. Let $\{g_d(n)\}_{d\geq 0,n \geq 1}$ be the double sequences $\sigma_d(n)= \sum_{\ell \mid n} \ell^d$ or $\psi_d(n)= n^d$. We associate…
We use an elementary argument to prove some finite sums involving expressions of the forms $(q)_n$ and $(a;q)_n$ along with inductive formulas for some sequences.
Some necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Cohen-Ramanujan expansions for arithmetical functions were provided by these authors in [\textit{arXive preprint arXive:2205.08466}, 2022]. Given two arithmetical functions $f$…
In the present paper, we introduce a multiple Ramanujan sum for arithmetic functions, which gives a multivariable extension of the generalized Ramanujan sum studied by D. R. Anderson and T. M. Apostol. We then find fundamental arithmetic…
We introduce a method that is based on Fourier series expansions related to Jacobi elliptic functions and that we apply to determine new identities for evaluating hyperbolic infinite sums in terms of the complete elliptic integrals $K$ and…
We establish several sum-product estimates over finite fields that involve polynomials and rational functions. First, |f(A)+f(A)|+|AA| is substantially larger than |A| for an arbitrary polynomial f over F_p. Second, a characterization is…
We study the quotient of hypergeometric functions \begin{equation*} \mu_{a}^*(r)=\frac{\pi}{2\sin{(\pi a)}}\frac{F(a,1-a;1;1-r^3)}{F(a,1-a;1;r^3)} \quad (r\in(0,1)) \end{equation*} in the theory of Ramanujan's generalized modular equation…
In this article, we consider systems of linear congruences in several variables and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions as well as explicit expressions for the number of solutions subject to certain restriction conditions. These…
In this work we study complete asymptotic expansions for the q-series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^{b}}q^{n^{a}}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\sigma_{\alpha}(n)}{n^{b}}q^{n^{a}}$ in the scale function $(\log q)^{n}$ as $q\to1^{-}$,…
We consider semilinear equations of the form p(D)u=F(u), with a locally bounded nonlinearity F(u), and a linear part p(D) given by a Fourier multiplier. The multiplier p(\xi) is the sum of positively homogeneous terms, with at least one of…
