In the present work, we extend current research in a nearly-forgotten but newly revived topic, initiated by P. A. MacMahon, on a generalized notion which relates the divisor sums to the theory of integer partitions and two infinite families…
For positive integers $m$ we consider the theta functions $f_m(z):=\sum_{mk+1\text{ square }}q^k$. Due to classical identities of Jacobi, it is known that $$f_4\equiv f_6f_{12}\pmod 2.$$ Here we prove that the only triples $(a,b,c)$ for…
The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form $p(\ell n+\beta)\equiv 0\pmod\ell$ for the…
By employing the classical tools from the theory of $q$-series and theta functions, new fascinating identities on different continued fractions can be achieved. In this article, we use the product expansion of Jacobi's theta function to…
We study the complex spectrum of the partial theta function \[ \Theta(q,x)=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}q^{j(j+1)/2}x^j, \qquad |q|<1, \] where a spectral value is a parameter for which \(\Theta(q,\cdot)\) has a multiple zero. Since the function is…
We will investigate the relationship between Ihara's zeta functions of Ramanujan graphs and Hasse-Weil's congruent zeta functions of modular curves. As an application we will describe the limit value of Hasse-Weil's congruent zeta functions…
In this paper, exact rate of approximation of functions by linear means of Fourier series and Fourier integrals and corresponding $K$-functionals are expressed via special moduli of smoothness. . Introduction is given in $\S 1$. In $\S2$…
The study of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic modular forms dates back to Ramanujan, who, together with Hardy, studied the reciprocal of the weight 6 Eisenstein series. Ramanujan conjectured a number of further identities for other…
Let $\Bbb Z$ be the set of integers. For positive integers $a,b,c$ and $n$ let $N(a,b,c;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $ax^2+by^2+cz^2$, and let $t(a,b,c;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by…
Partitions associated with mock theta functions have received a great deal of attention in the literature. Recently, Choi and Kim derived several partition identities from the third and sixth order mock theta functions. In addition, three…
We define two finite q-analogs of certain multiple harmonic series with an arbitrary number of free parameters, and prove identities for these q-analogs, expressing them in terms of multiply nested sums involving the Gaussian binomial…
The object of this article is a family of $q$-series originating from Habiro's work on the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants. The $q$-series usually make sense only when $q$ is a root of unity, but for some instances, it also determines…
In the first part of this paper we prove a conjecture of Hikami on the values of the radial limits of a family of $q$-hypergeometric false theta functions. Hikami conjectured that the radial limits are obtained by evaluating a truncated…
We study the interplay between recurrences for zeta related functions at integer values, `Minor Corner Lattice' Toeplitz determinants and integer composition based sums. Our investigations touch on functional identities due to Ramanujan and…
On page 206 in his lost notebook, Ramanujan recorded an incomplete septic theta function identity. Motivated by the completion of this identity by the second author, we offer cubic and quintic analogues. Using the theory generated by these…
We demonstrate that quotients of septic theta functions appearing in S. Ramanujan's Notebooks and in F. Klein's work satisfy a new coupled system of nonlinear differential equations with interesting symmetric form. This differential system…
Andrews and the third author recently studied congruences for certain restricted two-color partitions. They made two conjectures for Ramanujan-type congruences and a vanishing identity for the limiting sequence. In this paper, we settle…
In a handwritten manuscript published with his lost notebook, Ramanujan stated without proofs forty identities for the Rogers-Ramanujan functions. We observe that the functions that appear in Ramanujan's identities can be obtained from a…
Let $\lambda(m)$ be the $m$th coefficient of a modular form $f(z)=\sum_{m\geq 1} \lambda(m)q^m$ of weight $k\geq 4$, let $p^n$ be a prime power, and let $\varepsilon>0$ be a small number. An approximate of the Atkin-Serre conjecture on the…
We provide a framework for relating certain q-series defined by sums over partitions to multiple zeta values. In particular, we introduce a space of polynomial functions on partitions for which the associated q-series are q-analogues of…
