Ramanujan recorded five interesting q-series identities in a section that is not as systematically arranged as the other chapters of his second notebook. These five identities do not seem to have acquired enough attention. Recently, Dixit…
We study truncated objects using elementary methods. Concretely, we use universes and the resulting natural number object to define internal truncation levels and prove they behave similar to standard truncated objects. Moreover, we take an…
This paper presents an alternative proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that has several distinct advantages. The proof is based on simple ideas involving continuity and differentiation. Visual software demonstrations can be used to…
In his third notebook, Ramanujan claims that $$ \int_0^\infty \frac{\cos(nx)}{x^2+1} \log x \,\mathrm{d} x + \frac{\pi}{2} \int_0^\infty \frac{\sin(nx)}{x^2+1} \mathrm{d} x = 0. $$ In a following cryptic line, which only became visible in a…
Ramanujan's Master theorem states that, under suitable conditions, the Mellin transform of an alternating power series provides an interpolation formula for the coefficients of this series. Ramanujan applied this theorem to compute several…
During the course of verifying the results of Ramanujan on hypergeometric series, Berndt in his notebooks, Part II mentioned corrected forms of two of the Ramanujan's results. The aim of this short research note is to point out that one of…
We study a number of possible extensions of the Ramanujan master theorem, which is formulated here by using methods of Umbral nature. We discuss the implications of the procedure for the theory of special functions, like the derivation of…
Let $K$ be a number field. This paper considers arithmetic functions over $K$, that are, complex valued functions on the set of nonzero integral ideals in $K$. Firstly we generalize some basic results on arithmetic functions. Next we define…
Fourier Series is the second of monographs we present on harmonic analysis. Harmonic analysis is one of the most fascinating areas of research in mathematics. Its centrality in the development of many areas of mathematics such as partial…
Volterra functions were introduced at the beginning of the twentieth century as solutions of some integral equations of convolution type with logarithmic kernel. Since then, few authors have studied this family of functions and faced with…
Real-life conjectures do not come with instructions saying whether they they should be proven or, instead, refuted. Yet, as we now know, in either case the final argument produced had better be not just convincing but actually verifiable in…
Ramanujan made many beautiful and elegant discoveries in his short life of 32 years, and one of them that has attracted the attention of several mathematicians over the years is his intriguing formula for $\zeta(2n+1)$. To be sure,…
This is a kind of survey on properties of correlations of two very general arithmetic functions, mainly from the point of view of Ramanujan expansions. In fact, our previous papers on these links had, as a focus, the "Ramanujan…
In the study of Ramanujan sums, the so-called regular $A$-function is a set-valued multiplicative function that tracks certain subsets of the divisor sets of natural numbers. McCarthy provided a generalization of the Ramanujan sum using…
We present a new proof of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Surprisingly, all its ingredients are available already in Rogers seminal paper from 1894, where he gave a considerably more complicated proof.
In some recent papers, the authors considered regular continued fractions of the form \[ [a_{0};\underbrace{a,...,a}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{2},...,a^{2}}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{3},...,a^{3}}_{m}, ... ], \] where $a_{0} \geq 0$, $a \geq 2$ and $m…
We revisit an infinitely nested radical by Ramanujan. Utilizing the full strength of his method, we shall arrive at some new infinitely nested radicals.
This study reexamines diffusive representations for fractional integrals with the goal of pioneering new variants of such representations. These variants aim to offer highly efficient numerical algorithms for the approximate computation of…
Page 27 of Ramanujan's Lost Notebook contains a beautiful identity which not only gives, as a special case, a famous modular relation between the Rogers-Ramanujan functions $G(q)$ and $H(q)$ but also a relation between two fifth order mock…
Several continued fraction expansions for $e$ have been produced by an automated conjecture generator (ACG) called \emph{The Ramanujan Machine}. Some of these were already known, some have recently been proved and some remain unproven.…
