A NOTE ON ROGERS-RAMANUJAN-SLATER TYPE THETA FUNCTION IDENTITY

On Modular Relations for the Göllnitz–Gordon Functions with Applications to Partitions

In his first and second letters to Hardy, Ramanujan made several assertions about the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction F ( q ) F(q) . In order to prove some of these claims, G. N. Watson established two important theorems about F ( q ) F(q) that he found in Ramanujan’s notebooks. In his lost notebook, after stating a version of the quintuple product identity, Ramanujan offers three theta function identities, two of which contain as special cases the celebrated two theorems of Ramanujan proved by Watson. Using addition formulas, the quintuple product identity, and a new general product formula for theta functions, we prove these three identities of Ramanujan from his lost notebooks.

The Schröter formula is an important theta function identity. In this paper, we will point out that some well-known addition formulas for theta functions are special cases of the Schröter formula. We further show that the Hirschhorn septuple product identity can also be derived from this formula. In addition, this formula allows us to derive four remarkable theta functions identities, two of them are extensions of two well-known Ramanujan's identities related to the modular equations of degree 5. A trigonometric identity is also proved.

Ramanujan’s lost notebook contains many results on mock theta functions. In particular, the lost notebook contains eight identities for tenth order mock theta functions. Previously the author proved the first six of Ramanujan’s tenth order mock theta function identities. It is the purpose of this paper to prove the seventh and eighth identities of Ramanujan’s tenth order mock theta function identities which are expressed by mock theta functions and a definite integral. L. J. Mordell’s transformation formula for the definite integral plays a key role in the proofs of these identities. Also, the properties of modular forms are used for the proofs of theta function identities.

In this paper we establish two theta function identities with four parameters by the theory of theta functions. Using these identities we introduce common generalizations of Hirschhorn-Garvan-Borwein cubic theta functions, and also re-derive the quintuple product identity, one of Ramanujan’s identities, Winquist’s identity and many other interesting identities.

Evaluations of the cubic continued fraction by some theta function identities: Revisited

Theta function identities in the study of wavelets satisfying advanced differential equations

We take a new approach to the generation of Jacobi theta function identities. It is complementary to the procedure which makes use of the evaluation of Parseval-like identities for elementary cylindrically-symmetric functions on computer holograms. Our method is more simple and explicit than this one, which was an outcome of the construction of neurocomputer architectures through the Heisenberg model.

Basis partition polynomials, overpartitions and the Rogers–Ramanujan identities

We prove a theorem which adds a new companion to the Rogers–Ramanujan identities. This new companion counts partitions with different type of constraints on even and odd parts. Generalizing this theorem, we obtain two families of partition identities.

In a recent paper, Frechette and Locus examined and found expressions for the infinite product [math] in terms of products of [math] -series of the Rogers–Ramanujan type coming from Hall–Littlewood polynomials, when [math] . These [math] -series were originally discovered in 2014 by Griffin, Ono, and Warnaar in their work on the framework of the Rogers–Ramanujan identities. Extending this framework, Rains and Warnaar also recently discovered more [math] -series and their corresponding infinite products. Frechette and Locus left open the case where [math] . Here we find such an expression for the infinite products for [math] by making use of the new [math] -series obtained by Rains and Warnaar.

We give an explicit recursive description of the Hilbert series and Grobner bases for the family of quadratic ideals defining the jet schemes of a double point. We relate these recursions to the Rogers–Ramanujan identity and prove a conjecture of the second author, Oblomkov and Rasmussen.

Theta function identities and Ramanujan's Congruences on the partition function

A theta function identity of degree 7 is established with the theory of elliptic functions. A multitude of new modular identities are derived from this theta function identity. Some finite trigonometric sums are given.

Some theta function identities are proved and used to give formulae for the number of representations of a positive integer by certain quaternary forms x2 + ey2 + fz2 + gt2 with e, f, g ∈ {1, 2, 4, 8}.
