We derive two new analogues of a transformation formula of Ramanujan involving the Gamma and Riemann zeta functions present in the Lost Notebook. Both involve infinite series consisting of Hurwitz zeta functions and yield modular relations.…
We study Andrews and Berndt's organization of Ramanujan's transformation formulas in Chapter 1 of their book Ramanujan's Lost Notebook, Part II. In the process, we rediscover a bibasic Heine's transformation, which follows from a…
The overlap of Srinivasa Ramanujan's work with quantum field theory is discussed. A mathematically natural axiom for euclidean quantum field theories is proposed.
We examine an identity originally stated in Ramanujan's ``lost notebook'' and first proven algebraically by Andrews and combinatorially by Kim. We give two independent combinatorial proofs and interpretations of this identity, which also…
This is a set of lecture notes suitable for a Master's course on quantum computation and information from the perspective of theoretical computer science. The first version was written in 2011, with many extensions and improvements in…
This PhD thesis combines two of the most exciting research areas of the last decades: quantum computing and machine learning. We introduce dissipative quantum neural networks (DQNNs), which are designed for fully quantum learning tasks, are…
The ultimate limits for the quantum machine learning of quantum data are investigated by obtaining a generalisation of the celebrated No Free Lunch (NFL) theorem. We find a lower bound on the quantum risk (the probability that a trained…
The development of quantum neural networks (QNNs) has attracted considerable attention due to their potential to surpass classical models in certain machine learning tasks. Nonetheless, it remains unclear under which conditions QNNs provide…
I present here a collection of formulas inspired from the Ramanujan Notebooks. These formulas were found using an experimental method based on three widely available symbolic computation programs: PARI-Gp, Maple and Mathematica. A new…
Ramanujan graphs are graphs whose spectrum is bounded optimally. Such graphs have found numerous applications in combinatorics and computer science. In recent years, a high dimensional theory has emerged. In this paper these developments…
The polynomial Ramanujan sum was first introduced by Carlitz [7], and a generalized version by Cohen [10]. In this paper, we study the arithmetical and analytic properties of these sums, derive various fundamental identities, such as H…
Ramanujan Master Theorem is a technique developed by the indian mathematician S. Ramanujan to evaluate a class of definite integrals. This technique is used here to calculate the values of integrals associated with specific Feynman…
This article gives an elementary introduction to quantum computing. It is a draft for a book chapter of the "Handbook of Nature-Inspired and Innovative Computing", Eds. A. Zomaya, G.J. Milburn, J. Dongarra, D. Bader, R. Brent, M.…
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…
Ramanujan listed several q-series identities in his lost notebook. The most well known q-series identities are the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities which are first discovered by Rogers and then rediscovered by Ramanujan. In this paper, we…
This is a paper published in 2001 based on a talk given in 1999 celebrating the 50th anniversary of W. N. Bailey's influential q-series paper "Identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type". In no more than 13 pages I give a brief but reasonably…
This paper proves that if an untrained quantum circuit is used as a resource in a machine learning workflow, then on average no quantum circuit is better than any other that can achieve the same set of computational effects. This is the…
It is shown how many of the partial theta function identities in Ramanujan's lost notebook can be generalized to infinite families of such identities. Key in our construction is the Bailey lemma and a new generalization of the Jacobi triple…
In this article we continue a previous work in which we have generalized the Rogers Ramanujan continued fraction (RR) introducing what we call, the Ramanujan-Quantities (RQ). We use the Mathematica package to give several modular equations…
We study an elementary series that can be considered a relative of a series studied by Ramanujan in Part 1 of his Lost Notebooks. We derive a closed form for this series in terms of the inverse hyperbolic arctangent and the polylogarithm.…
