In 1914, Ramanujan gave a list of 17 identities expressing $1/\pi$ as linear combinations of values of hypergeometric functions at certain rational numbers. Since then, identities of similar nature have been discovered by many authors.…
The zeta function attached to a finite complex $X_\Gamma$ arising from the Bruhat-Tits building for $\PGL_3(F)$ was studied in \cite{KL}, where a closed form expression was obtained by a combinatorial argument. This identity can be…

We define a general class of (multiple) integrals of hypergeometric type associated with the Jacobi theta functions. These integrals are related to theta hypergeometric series through the residue calculus. In the one variable case, we get…
We prove a kind of bilateral semi-terminating series related to Ramanujan-like series for negative powers of $\pi$, and conjecture a type of supercongruences associated to them. We support this conjecture by checking all the cases for many…
We study the modularity of the functions of the form $r(\tau)^ar(2\tau)^b$, where $a$ and $b$ are integers with $(a,b)\neq (0,0)$ and $r(\tau)$ is the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, which may be considered as companions to the…
In the joint work of T.Rivoal and the author, a hypergeometric construction was proposed for studing arithmetic properties of the values of Dirichlet's beta function $\beta(s)$ at even positive integers. The construction gives some bonuses…
In this paper, we evaluate in closed forms two families of infinite integrals containing hyperbolic and trigonometric functions in their integrands. We call them Berndt-type integrals since he initiated the study of similar integrals. We…
We re-examine perturbative and nonperturbative aspects of the beta function in N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories, make comments on the recent literature on the subject and discuss the exactness of several known results such as the…
