This paper is associated with Nevanlinna class, Dirichlet series and Szeg\"o's problem in infinitely many variables. As we will see, there is a natural connection between these topics. The paper first introduces the Nevanlinna class and the…
We prove a recent conjecture, due to Vigren and Dieckmann, about an explicit triple sum formula for a series from Ramanujan's Notebooks. We shall give two proofs: the first one is by evaluation and based on the identity \begin{equation*}…
Strict partitions are enumerated with respect to the weight, the number of parts, and the number of sequences of odd length. We write this trivariate generating function as a double sum $q$-series. Equipped with such a combinatorial set-up,…
Example 7, after Entry 43, in Chapter XII of the first Notebook of Srinivasa Ramanujan is proved and, more generally, a summation theorem for $_3F_2(a,a,x;1+a,1+a+N;1)$, where $N$ is a non-negative integer, is derived.
Quite recently, the first author investigated vanishing coefficients of the arithmetic progressions in several $q$-series expansions. In this paper, we further study the signs of coefficients in two $q$-series expansions and establish some…
In this paper, we determine the bound of the valency of the odd circulant graph which guarantees to be a Ramanujan graph for each fixed number of vertices. In almost of the cases, the bound coincides with the trivial bound, which comes from…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
In this paper we evaluate integrals of products of gamma functions of Ramanujan type in terms of bilateral hypergeometric series. In cases where the bilateral hypergeometric series are summable, then we evaluate these integral as beta…
Studying Correlations with Ramanujan Expansions, we arrive to present the new class of, say, Two-Seasons Correlations, abbr. T-S, as a natural set expressing some of the features of, say, H-L-like Correlations; these are the ones that mimic…
The aim of this review, based on a series of four lectures held at the 22nd "Saalburg" Summer School (2016), is to cover selected topics in the theory of perturbation series and their summation. The first part is devoted to strategies for…
We provide new proofs to five of Ramanujan's intriguing identities on false theta functions without using the Rogers-Fine identity and Bailey transforms.
In this note, we investigate the sharpness of existing bounds for various types of bi-parameter paraproducts acting between product Hardy spaces in the dyadic setting. We show that these bounds are sharp in most cases but fail to be so in…
We extend the validity range of a Ramanujan's hypergeometric transformation formula proved by Berndt, Bhargava and Garvan, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 347, 4163 (1995) and study its implications. Relations to special values of complete elliptic…
In this paper, by introducing a new operation in the vector space of Laurent series, the author derived explicit series for the values of $\zeta$-funtion at positive integers, where $\zeta$ denotes the Riemann zeta function. The values of…
In Entry 16, Chapter 16 of his notebooks, Ramanujan himself gave a formula for the convergents of the famous Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction. We provide a similar formula for the convergents of a more general continued fraction, namely…
We prove a sharp integral inequality that generalizes the well known Hardy type integral inequality for negative exponents. We also give sharp applications in two directions for Muckenhoupt weights on R. This work refines the results that…
Given a frequency $\lambda$, we study general Dirichlet series $\sum a_n e^{-\lambda_n s}$. First, we give a new condition on $\lambda$ which ensures that a somewhere convergent Dirichlet series defining a bounded holomorphic function in…
Ramanujan (1916) and Shen (1999) discovered differential equations for classical Eisenstein series. Motivated by them, we derive new differential equations for Eisenstein series of level 2 from the second kind of Jacobi theta function. This…
Dyson famously provided combinatorial explanations for Ramanujan's partition congruences modulo $5$ and $7$ via his rank function, and postulated that an invariant explaining all of Ramanujan's congruences modulo $5$, $7$, and $11$ should…
V. I. Vasyunin has introduced special sequences of step functions related to the strong Nyman-Beurling criterion that converge pointwise to 1 in $[1,\infty)$. We show here that the first and simplest such sequence considered by Vasyunin…
