This paper provides a survey of particular values of Ramanujan's theta function $\varphi(q)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}q^{n^2}$, when $q=e^{-\pi\sqrt{n}}$, where $n$ is a positive rational number. First, descriptions of the tools used to…
We revisit an infinitely nested radical by Ramanujan. Utilizing the full strength of his method, we shall arrive at some new infinitely nested radicals.
In a famous paper of $1914$ Ramanujan gave a list of $17$ extraordinary formulas for the number $\pi$. In this paper we explain a general method to prove them, based on an original idea of James Wan and in some own ideas.
Lecture notes on quantum machine learning for computer scientists.
A Quantum Computing Concept Inventory is needed for the acceleration of uptake of best practice in quantum computing education required to support the quantum computing workforce for the next two decades. Eight experts in quantum computing,…
In 1915, Ramanujan proved asymptotic inequalities for the sum of divisors function, assuming the Riemann hypothesis (RH). We consider a strong version of Ramanujan's theorem and define highest abundant numbers that are extreme with respect…
Ramanujan in his second notebook recorded total of seven $P$--$Q$ modular equations involving theta--function $f(-q)$ with moduli of orders 1, 3, 5 and 15. In this paper, modular equations analogous to those recorded by Ramanujan are…
An algebraic transformation of the DeTemple-Wang half-integer approximation to the harmonic series produces the general formula and error estimate for the Ramanujan expansion for the nth harmonic number.
In his book entitled Divergent Series, Hardy makes various references to divergent series of sine functions. In this paper, we show how such series may be treated rigorously and, in particular, we revisit Entry 17(v) in Ramanujan's…
This is a lecture on the theory of formal power series developed entirely without any analytic machinery. Combining ideas from various authors we are able to prove Newton's binomial theorem, Jacobi's triple product, the Rogers--Ramanujan…
We make explicit a theorem of Pintz concerning the error term in the prime number theorem. This gives an improved version of the prime number theorem with error term roughly square-root of that which was previously known. We apply this to a…
The scope of this review is to give a pedagogical introduction to some new calculations and methods developed by the author in the context of quantum groups and their applications. The review is self- contained and serves as a "first aid…
Book Review of Quantum Field Theory by Lewis H. Ryder. An observation on Ryder's derivation of Dirac equation is made. The review ends as, "A rare combination of a thorough understanding and appreciation of the essential logical structure…
We study Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction and explicit evaluations of theta-functions
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…
In this short research note, we aim to establish an interesting extension of a summation due to Ramanujan.The result is derived with the help of an extension of Gauss's summation theorem available in the literature.
Quotients and comprehension are fundamental mathematical constructions that can be described via adjunctions in categorical logic. This paper reveals that quotients and comprehension are related to measurement, not only in quantum logic,…
A century ago, Srinivasa Ramanujan -- the great self-taught Indian genius of mathematics -- died, shortly after returning from Cambridge, UK, where he had collaborated with Godfrey Hardy. Ramanujan contributed numerous outstanding results…
These notes begin in Chapter 1 with a review of linear algebra and the postulates of quantum mechanics, leading to an explanation of single- and multi-qubit gates. Chapter 2 explores the challenge of constructing arbitrary quantum states…
Via the MC-algorithm, in this paper we produce seven continued fraction formulae involving products and quotients of three gamma functions with three parameters, and another is an extension of Entry 34 in Chapter 12 of Ramanujan's second…
