Curious Extensions of Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 Summation Formula

چکیده
We deduce new q-series identities by applying inverse relations to certain identities for basic hypergeometric series. The identities obtained themselves do not belong to the hierarchy of basic hypergeometric series. We extend two of our identities, by analytic continuation, to bilateral summation formulae which contain Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 summation and a very-well-poised 4ψ6 summation as special cases.

Transformations of Ramanujan’s Summation Formula and Its Applications
In this paper, we obtain some new transformation formulas for Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 summation formula and also establish some eta-function identities. We also deduce a q-Gamma function identity, a q-integral and some interesting series representations for π 3/2 2 √ 2Γ2(3/4) and the beta function B(x,y).
متن کاملA NEW An EXTENSION OF RAMANUJAN'S 1 1 SUMMATION WITH APPLICATIONS TO MULTILATERAL An SERIES
Abstract. In this article, we derive some identities for multilateral basic hypergeometric series associated to the root system An. First, we apply Ismail’s [15] argument to an An q-binomial theorem of Milne [25, Th. 5.42] and derive a new An generalization of Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 summation theorem. From this new An 1ψ1 summation and from an An 1ψ1 summation of Gustafson [9] we deduce two lemmas for...
متن کاملRamanujan's 1 Ψ 1 Summation
Acknowledgements I thank Dick Askey, Bruce Berndt, Susanna Fishel, Jeff Lagarias and Michael Schlosser for their helpful correspondence. Notation. It is impossible to give an account of the 1ψ1 summation without introducing some q-series notation. To keep the presentation as simple as possible, we assume that 0 < q < 1. Suppressing q-dependence, we define two q-shifted factorials: (a)∞ := ∏∞ k=...
متن کاملRamanujan’s Identities and Representation of Integers by Certain Binary and Quaternary Quadratic Forms
We revisit old conjectures of Fermat and Euler regarding representation of integers by binary quadratic form x2 + 5y2. Making use of Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 summation formula we establish a new Lambert series identity for ∑∞ n,m=−∞ q n2+5m2 . Conjectures of Fermat and Euler are shown to follow easily from this new formula. But we don’t stop there. Employing various formulas found in Ramanujan’s noteboo...
متن کاملA simple proof of Bailey’s very-well-poised 6ψ6 summation
Using Rogers’ nonterminating 6φ5 summation and elementary series manipulations, we give a simple proof of Bailey’s very-well-poised 6ψ6 summation. This proof extends M. Jackson’s first proof of Ramanujan’s 1ψ1 summation.
