In this article we give the theoretical background for generating Ramanujan type $1/\pi^{2\nu}$ formulas. As applications of our method we give a general construction of $1/\pi^4$ series and examples of $1/\pi^6$ series. We also study the…
In this article we use theoretical and numerical methods to evaluate in a closed-exact form the parameters of Ramanujan type $1/\pi$ formulas.
We show with some examples how to prove some Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ in an elementary way by using terminating identities.
"Divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ provide us with new nice examples of supercongruences of the same kind as those related to the convergent cases. In this paper we manage to prove three of the supercongruences by…
In a well-known 1914 paper, Ramanujan gave a number of rapidly converging series for $1/\pi$ which are derived using modular functions of higher level. D. V. and G. V. Chudnovsky in their 1988 paper derived an analogous series representing…
We define bilateral series related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$. Then, we conjecture a property of them and give some applications.
Ramanujan in his notebook recorded two modular equations involving multiplier with moduli of degrees (1,7) and (1,23). In this paper, we find some new Ramanujan's modular equations involving multiplier with moduli of degrees (3,5) and…
We use a variant of Wan's method to prove two Ramanujan-Orr type formulas for $1/\pi$. This variant needs to know in advance the formulas for $1/\pi$ that we want to prove, but avoids the need of solving a system of equations.
About 40 years ago Jonathan and Peter Borwein discovered the series identity $$ \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n(6n)!}{(3n)!(n!)^3} \frac{(A+nB)}{C^{n+1/2}} = \frac{1}{12\pi} $$ where \begin{align*} A&=1657145277365+212175710912\sqrt{61},\cr…
Using a modular equation of level $3$ and degree $23$ due to Chan and Liaw, we prove the fastest convergent rational Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ of level $3$.
We give new proofs of the twelve Rogers-Ramanujan-type identities due to Rogers and Slater that are traditionally associated with the moduli 7, 14 and 28.
Using generalized binomial coefficient identities and some results of John Dougall, we derive some families of series involving the cubes of Catalan numbers. We also establish a family of series containing fourth powers of Catalan numbers.…
In this article using the theory of Eisenstein series, we give rise to the complete evaluation of two Gauss hypergeometric functions. Moreover we evaluate the modulus of each of these functions and the values of the functions in terms of…
In terms of the difference operators, we establish several curious transformation and summation formulas for basic hypergeometric series. When the parameters are specified, they produce $q$-analogues of Ramanujan's three series for 1/$\pi$…
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…
First we give general formulas for proving real or complex Ramanujan series for $1/\pi$. Then, as an example, we apply them for providing complete proofs of the fastest series for $1/\pi$ due to Ramanujan using Russell and Weber modular…
We consider an extension of the Ramanujan series with a variable $x$. If we let $x=x_0$, we call the resulting series: "Ramanujan series with the shift $x_0$". Then, we relate these shifted series to some $q$-series and solve the case of…
Using an infinite family of generalizations of the Chudnovsky brothers' series recently obtained via the analytic continuation of the Borwein brothers' formula for Ramanujan-type series of level 1, we apply the Gauss-Salamin-Brent iteration…
We revisit old conjectures of Fermat and Euler regarding representation of integers by binary quadratic form x^2+5y^2. Making use of Ramanujan's_1\psi_1 summation formula we establish a new Lambert series identity for…
In this note, we evaluate a series for $1/\pi$ conjectured by Sun. Our proof uses the Cauchy product and hypergeometric transformations. From this result, we derive two additional analogous series for $1/\pi$ involving polynomials of degree…
