Irrationality proof of certain Lambert series using little q-Jacobi polynomials

چکیده
We apply the Padé technique to find rational approximations to h±(q1, q2) = ∞ ∑ k=1 q 1 1± q 2 , 0 < q1, q2 < 1, q1 ∈ Q, q2 = 1/p2, p2 ∈ N \ {1}. A separate section is dedicated to the special case qi = q ri , ri ∈ N, q = 1/p, p ∈ N \ {1}. In this construction we make use of little q-Jacobi polynomials. Our rational approximations are good enough to prove the irrationality of h(q1, q2) and give an upper bound for the irrationality measure.

Little q-Legendre polynomials and irrationality of certain Lambert series
Certain q-analogs hp(1) of the harmonic series, with p = 1/q an integer greater than one, were shown to be irrational by Erdős [9]. In 1991–1992 Peter Borwein [4] [5] used Padé approximation and complex analysis to prove the irrationality of these q-harmonic series and of q-analogs lnp(2) of the natural logarithm of 2. Recently Amdeberhan and Zeilberger [1] used the qEKHAD symbolic package to f...
متن کاملIrrationality proof of a q-extension of ζ(2) using little q-Jacobi polynomials
We show how one can use Hermite-Padé approximation and little q-Jacobi polynomials to construct rational approximants for ζq(2). These numbers are qanalogues of the well known ζ(2). Here q = 1 p , with p an integer greater than one. These approximants are good enough to show the irrationality of ζq(2) and they allow us to calculate an upper bound for its measure of irrationality: μ (ζq(2)) ≤ 10...
متن کاملIrrationality of ζ q ( 1 ) and ζ q ( 2 ) ?
In this paper we show how one can obtain simultaneous rational approximants for ζq(1) and ζq(2) with a common denominator by means of Hermite-Padé approximation using multiple little q-Jacobi polynomials and we show that properties of these rational approximants prove that 1, ζq(1), ζq(2) are linearly independent over Q. In particular this implies that ζq(1) and ζq(2) are irrational. Furthermor...
متن کاملAN APPLICATION OF LITTLE 1/q-JACOBI POLYNOMIALS TO SUMMATION OF CERTAIN SERIES
In this paper we consider an application of a special class of little 1/q-Jacobi polynomials to summation of series. Beside the three-term recurrence relation for such polynomials, a zero distribution as well as the corresponding quadratures of Gaussian type are investigated. Some numerical examples are included.
متن کاملBilinear Summation Formulas from Quantum Algebra Representations
The tensor product of a positive and a negative discrete series representation of the quantum algebra Uq ( su(1, 1) ) decomposes as a direct integral over the principal unitary series representations. Discrete terms can appear, and these terms are a finite number of discrete series representations, or one complementary series representation. From the interpretation as overlap coefficients of li...
