We revisit certain one-parameter families of affine covers arising naturally from Euler's integral representation of hypergeometric functions. We introduce a partial compactification of this family. We show that the zeta function of the…
Ramanujan studied the analytic properties of many $q$-hypergeometric series. Of those, mock theta functions have been particularly intriguing, and by work of Zwegers, we now know how these curious $q$-series fit into the theory of…
Several methods are used to evaluate finite trigonometric sums. In each case, either the sum had not previously been evaluated, or it had been evaluated, but only by analytic means, e.g., by complex analysis or modular transformation…
We establish four supercongruences between truncated ${}_3F_2$ hypergeometric series involving $p$-adic Gamma functions, which extend some of the Rodriguez-Villegas supercongruences.
If we start from certain functional relations as definition of a quantum integrable theory, then we can derive from them a linear integral equation. It can be extended, by introducing dynamical variables, to become an equation with the form…
In this paper, by using the residue theorem and asymptotic formulas of trigonometric and hyperbolic functions at the poles, we establish many relations involving two or more infinite series of trigonometric and hyperbolic trigonometric…
We consider the $\alpha$-sine transform of the form $T_\alpha f(y)=\int_0^\infty\vert\sin(xy)\vert^\alpha f(x)dx$ for $\alpha>-1$, where $f$ is an integrable function on $\mathbb{R}_+$. First, the inversion of this transform for $\alpha>1$…
It is only in exceptional cases that a $_2F_1(z)$-series with rational parameters and a rational argument, apart from the cases for $z \in \{ \pm 1, \frac{1}{2} \}$ associated with classical hypergeometric identities, admits an evaluation…
Over a field of characteristic 0, the algebra of invariants of several $n\times n$ matrices under simultameous conjugation by $GL_n$ is generated by traces of products of generic matrices. Teranishi, 1986, found a minimal system of eleven…
In a recent paper, Chu and Zhou [Advances in Combinatorics, I.S. Kotsireas and E.V. Zima(eds.), 139-159 (2013)] established in all 40 closed formulae for terminating Watson-like hypergeometric $_{3}F_2$- series by investigating through…
We study three integrals related to the celebrated pair correlation conjecture of H. L. Montgomery. The first is the integral of Montgomery's function $F(\alpha, T)$ in bounded intervals, the second is an integral introduced by Selberg…
In 1977, Gosper conjectured many strange evaluations of hypergeometric series. One of them is a ${}_{2}F_{1}$-series identity with two free parameters, which was proved by Ebisu (2013), Chu (2017), and Campbell (2023) in different ways. In…
We construct a class of representations of the quadratic $R$-matrix algebra given by the reflection equation with the spectral parameter, $$ R{\,}(u-v)\,T^{(1)}(u)\,R{\,}(u+v)\,T^{(2)}(v)= T^{(2)}(v)\,R{\,}(u+v)\,T^{(1)}(u)\,R{\,}(u-v), $$…
In this paper, we give an elementary account into Zagier's formula for multiple zeta values involving Hoffman elements. Our approach allows us to obtain direct proof in a special case via rational zeta series involving the coefficient…
If the generalized dynamics of K field theories (i.e., field theories with a non-standard kinetic term) is taken into account, then the possibility of so-called twin-like models opens up, that is, of different field theories which share the…
The relations in the tautological ring of the moduli space M_g of nonsingular curves conjectured by Faber-Zagier in 2000 and extended to the moduli space of stable pointed curves by Pixton in 2012 are based upon two hypergeometric series A…
Following a previous article we continue our study on non-terminating hypergeometric series with one free parameter, which aims to find arithmetical constraints for a given hypergeometric series to admit a gamma product formula. In this…
We construct a uniformly discrete, and even sparse, sequence of real numbers $\Lambda=\{\lambda_n\}$ and a function g in $L^2(R)$, such that for every q>2, every function f in $L^2(R)$ can be approximated with arbitrary small error by a…
We study the linear Pfaffian systems satisfied by a certain class of hypergeometric functions, which includes Gau\ss's ${}_2 F_{1}$, Thomae's ${}_L F_{L-1}$ and Appell-Lauricella's $F_D$. In particular, we present a fundamental system of…
This paper presents an approach to summing a few families of infinite series involving hyperbolic functions, some of which were first studied by Ramanujan. The key idea is based on their contour integral representations and residue…
