In the first part we establish a connection between the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula and the Rota-Baxter functional equation. In the second part we give a simple proof of a formula, due to Ramanujan, on the summation of certain…
An integral formula is developed which applies to an essentially arbitrary function. An application is made to the Riemann zeta function.
We record $$ \binom{42}2+\binom{23}2+\binom{13}2=1192 $$ functional identities that, apart from being amazingly amusing by themselves, find applications in derivation of Ramanujan-type formulas for $1/\pi$ and in computation of mathematical…
This paper gives some results for the logarithm of the Riemann zeta-function and its iterated integrals. We obtain a certain explicit approximation formula for these functions. The formula has some applications, which are related with the…
In this short note we prove a conjecture for the interval $(0,1)$, related to a logarithmically completely monotonic function, presented in \cite{BG}. Then, we extend by proving a more generalized theorem. At the end we pose an open problem…
Two classes of finite trigonometric sums, each involving only $\sin$'s, are evaluated in closed form. The previous and original proofs arise from Ramanujan's theta functions and modular equations.
In his notebooks, Ramanujan presented without proof many remarkable formulae for the solutions to generalized modular equations. Much later, proofs of the formulae were provided by making use of highly nontrivial identities for theta series…
We study Ramanujan-Fourier series of certain arithmetic functions of two variables. We generalize Delange's theorem to the case of arithmetic functions of two variables and give sufficient conditions for pointwise convergence of…
We establish a new multiplicity lemma for solutions of a differential system extending Ramanujan's classical differential relations. This result can be useful in the study of arithmetic properties of values of Riemann zeta function at odd…
A new method is presented for obtaining indefinite integrals of common special functions. The approach is based on a Lagrangian formulation of the general homogeneous linear ordinary differential equation of second order. A general integral…
We give closed-form expressions for the Dirichlet beta function at even positive integers and for the Dirichlet lambda function at odd positive integers, based on the function J(s) defined via convergent integral. We also show fundamental…
A modular relation of the form $F(\alpha, w)=F(\beta, iw)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $\alpha\beta=1$, is obtained. It involves the generalized digamma function $\psi_w(a)$ which was recently studied by the authors in their work on developing…
In this paper, we obtain analytical solutions of some definite integrals of Srinivasa Ramanujan [Mess. Math., XLIV, 75-86, 1915] in terms of Meijer's $G$-function by using Laplace transforms of $ \sin(\beta x^{2}),\cos(\beta x^{2}),…
In this paper, the power series and hypergeometric series representations of the beta and Ramanujan functions \begin{equation*} \mathcal{B}\left( x\right) =\frac{\Gamma \left( x\right)^{2}}{\Gamma \left( 2x\right) }\text{ and…
A representation of divisor function $\tau(n)\equiv \sigma_{0}(n)$ by means of logarithmic residue of a function of complex variable is suggested. This representation may be useful theoretical instrument for further investigations of…
Logarithmic integrals revisited. We consider integrals of the form $\int_0^1 \ln{\ln{(\frac{1}{x})}}R{(x)}{\rm d}x$ again, where $R{(x)}$ is a rational function, and we will explain a way to obtain their values.
In the paper, by a general and fundamental, but non-extensively circulated, formula for derivatives of a ratio of two differentiable functions and by a recursive relation of the Hessenberg determinant, the author finds a new determinantal…
In this note, we show that the values of integrals of the log-tangent function with respect to any square-integrable function on $\left[0 , \frac{\pi}{2} \right]$ may be determined by a finite or infinite sum involving the Riemann…
