Ramanujan's lost notebook: Combinatorial proofs of identities associated with Heine's transformation or partial theta functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Combinatorial proofs are given for certain entries in Ramanujan’s lost notebook. Bijections of Sylvester, Franklin, and Wright, and applications of Algorithm Z of Zeilberger are employed. A new bijection, involving the new concept of the parity sequence of a partition, is used to prove one of Ramanujan’s fascinating identities for a partial theta function.

Combinatorial Proofs of Identities in Ramanujan’s Lost Notebook Associated with the Rogers–fine Identity and False Theta Functions
Ramanujan’s lost notebook contains several identities arising from the Rogers–Fine identity and/or Rogers’ false theta functions. Combinatorial proofs for many of these identities are given.
متن کاملSome Eisenstein Series Identities Related to Modular Equations of the Seventh Order
In this paper we will use one well-known modular equation of seventh order, one theta function identity of S. McCullough and L.-C. Shen, 1994, and the complex variable theory of elliptic functions to prove some new septic identities for theta functions. Then we use these identities to provide new proofs of some Eisenstein series identities in Ramanujan’s notebooks or “lost” notebook. We also de...
متن کاملRamanujan-type partial theta identities and conjugate Bailey pairs
Residual identities of Ramanujan-type partial theta identities are tailor-made for producing conjugate Bailey pairs. This is carried out for partial theta identities in Ramanujan’s lost notebook, a number of the partial theta identities of Warnaar, and for some new ones as well.
متن کاملA Generalization of a Modular Identity of Rogers
In a handwritten manuscript published with his lost notebook, Ramanujan stated without proofs forty identities for the Rogers-Ramanujan functions. Most of the elementary proofs given for these identities are based on Schröter-type theta function identities in particular, the identities of L. J. Rogers. We give a generalization of Rogers’s identity that also generalizes similar formulas of H. Sc...
متن کاملA Combinatorial Proof of an Identity from Ramanujan's Lost Notebook
In this note, we present a new combinatorial proof of an identity originally stated in Ramanujan’s lost notebook by keeping track of an extra statistic in Yee’s bijection for a special case of this identity.
