We construct a basis for the right quantum algebra introduced by Garoufalidis, Le and Zeilberger and give a method making it possible to go from an algebra submitted to commutation relations (without the variable q) to the right quantum…

Starting from the representation of a function $f(x,y)$ as a formal power series with Taylor coefficients $f_{m,n}$, we establish a formal series for the implicit function $y=y(x)$ such that $f(x,y)=0$ and the coefficients of the series for…

The article is based on the differential properties of the inner generators (singularities) that occur while handling SP series (sum product series), power series whose Taylor coefficients can be written as sum-product combinations. It is…

Faulhaber's formula expresses the sum of the first $n$ positive integers, each raised to an integer power $p\geq 0$, as a polynomial in $n$ of degree $p+1$. Ramanujan expressed this sum for $p\in\{\frac12,\frac32,\frac52,\frac72\}$ as the…

Ballantine--Beck--Feigon--Maurischat introduced the subsum polynomial \[ \operatorname{sp}(\lambda,x):=\prod_i (1+x^{\lambda_i}) \] attached to an integer partition $\lambda$, and studied rational functions obtained by summing reciprocals…

In this note, it is shown that the Ramanujan Master Theorem (RMT) when n is a positive integer can be obtained, as a special case, from a new integral formula. Furthermore, we give a simple proof of the RMT when n is not an integer.

Riordan matrices are infinite lower triangular matrices determined by a pair of formal power series over the real or complex field. These matrices have been mainly studied as combinatorial objects with an emphasis placed on the algebraic or…

This paper provides a general proof of a relationship theorem between nonlinear analogue polynomial equations and the corresponding Jacobian matrix, presented recently by the present author. This theorem is also verified generally effective…

The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula was recently resummed exactly in one variable, and left as a power series in the other (Moodie and Long 2021 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 54 015208). The coefficients of the power series were provided as a…

Solutions of nonlinear functional equations are generally not expressed as a finite number of combinations and compositions of elementary and known special functions. One of the approaches to study them is, firstly, to find formal solutions…

We consider formal power series $f(z) = \omega z + a_2z^2 + \ldots \ (\omega \neq 0)$, with coefficients in a field of characteristic $0$. These form a group under the operation of composition (= substitution). We prove (Theorem 1) that…

We study q-integral representations of the q-gamma and the q-beta functions. This study leads to a very interesting q-constant. As an application of these integral representations, we obtain a simple conceptual proof of a family of…

We prove a number of new Rogers-Ramanujan type identities involving double, triple and quadruple sums. They were discovered after an extensive search using Maple. The main idea of proofs is to reduce them to some known identities in the…

In this paper, we give a conjecture, which generalises Euler's partition theorem involving odd parts and different parts for all moduli. We prove this conjecture for two family partitions. We give $q$-difference equations for the related…

Given a finite set of roots of unity, we show that all power sums are non-negative integers iff the set forms a group under multiplication. The main argument is purely combinatorial and states that for an arbitrary finite set system the…

Using Jack polynomials, Goulden and Jackson have introduced a one parameter deformation $\tau_b$ of the generating series of bipartite maps, which generalizes the partition function of $\beta$-ensembles of random matrices. The Matching-Jack…

Efficient algorithms are known for many operations on truncated power series (multiplication, powering, exponential, ...). Composition is a more complex task. We isolate a large class of power series for which composition can be performed…

We study multidimensional configurations (infinite words) and subshifts of low pattern complexity using tools of algebraic geometry. We express the configuration as a multivariate formal power series over integers and investigate the setup…

Power nonnegative matrices are defined as complex matrices having at least one nonnegative integer power. We exploit the possibility of deriving a Perron Frobenius-like theory for these matrices, obtaining three main results and drawing…

Let $f(z) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty d_k z^k$, $d_k\in\mathbb{C}\backslash\{ 0 \}$, $d_0=1$, be a power series with a non-zero radius of convergence $\rho$: $0 <\rho \leq +\infty$. Denote by $f_n(z)$ the n-th partial sum of $f$, and $R_{2n}(z) =…
