An identity by Ramanujan is expressed using polar coordinates, so that its proof reduces to the verification of an elementary trigonometric identity. This approach produces a few variations on Ramanujan's original identity.

We develop an approach to establish $1/\pi$-series from bimodular forms. Utilizing this approach, we obtain new families of $2$-variable $1/\pi$-series associated to Zagier's sporadic Apery-like sequences.

Throughout his entire mathematical life, Ramanujan loved to evaluate definite integrals. One can find them in his problems submitted to the \emph{Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society}, notebooks, Quarterly Reports to the University of…

We define bilateral series related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$. Then, we conjecture a property of them and give some applications.

We observe that five polynomial families have all of their zeros on the unit circle. We prove the statements explicitly for four of the polynomial families. The polynomials have coefficients which involve Bernoulli numbers, Euler numbers,…

The Riemann zeta identity at even integers of Lettington, along with his other Bernoulli and zeta relations, are generalized. Other corresponding recurrences and determinant relations are illustrated. Another consequence is the application…

Ramanujan derived the well known divergent-sum of integers in more than one way. We generalise the informal method to higher powers of the Riemann zeta function through a study of the Eulerian numbers in particular. Within the context of…

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…

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…

In this note, it is shown that the Ramanujan Master Theorem (RMT) when n is a positive integer can be obtained, as a special case, from a new integral formula. Furthermore, we give a simple proof of the RMT when n is not an integer.

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…

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.…

Assuming an averaged form of Mertens' conjecture and that the ordinates of the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function are linearly independent over the rationals, we analyze the finer structure of the terms in a well-known formula…

Update: This result was obtained by Milinovich with a better error term. He used $\zeta'(s)$, but we considered $Z'(t)$. We corrected a typo in the main theorem. We consider the sum of the square of the derivative of Hardy's $Z$-function…

A series of formula is presented that are all inspired by the Ramanujan Notebooks [6]. One of them appears in the notebooks II about Zeta(3). That formula inspired others that appeared in 1998, 2006 and 2009 on the author's website and…

We have found several summation formulas that extend Ramanujan's psi sum. First contains a parameter $\alpha=1/N$, $N$ is a positive integer, and transforms to $q$-beta integral in the limit $N\to\infty$. The other is a $q$-analogue of…

In 1917, G.H.Hardy and S.Ramanujan proved that the `typical' number of prime factors of a positive integer $n$ is approximately $\ln\ln n$. In this technical paper we proffer a complete exposition of this proof, and further provide novel…

Let $\Bbb Z$ and $\Bbb Z^+$ be the set of integers and the set of positive integers, respectively. For $a,b,c,d,n\in\Bbb Z^+$ let $t(a,b,c,d;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $ax(x+1)/2+by(y+1)/2+cz(z+1)/2+dw(w+1)/2$…

We give a new appraisal of a famous oscillating power series considered by Hardy and Ramanujan related to the erroneous theory of distribution of primes by Ramanujan.

The main goal of this article is to present an elementary proof of Ramanujan's identity for odd zeta values. Our proof solely relies on a Mittag-Leffler type expansion for hyperbolic cotangent function and Euler's identity for even zeta…
