    No full text
    We obtain a modular transformation for the theta function, which enables us to unify and extend several modular transformations known in literature. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc

    On some remarkable product of theta-function

    No full text
    On pages 338 and 339 in his first notebook, Ramanujan records eighteen values for a certain product of theta-function. All these have been proved by B. C. Berndt, H. H. Chan and L-C. Zhang 4. Recently M. S. Mahadeva Naika and B. N. Dharmendra. 7, 8 and Mahadeva Naika and M. C. Maheshkumar 9 have obtained general theorems to establish explicit evaluations of Ramanujan's remarkable product of theta-function. Following Ramanujan we define a new function bM, N as defined in (1.5). The main purpose of this paper is to establish some new general theorems for explicit evaluations of product of theta-function. © 2008 Austral Internet Publishing. All rights reserved

    Certain quotient of eta-function identities.

    On page 212 in his lost notebook, Ramanujan defined a parameter λn\lambda_n by a certain quotient of Dedekind eta-functions at the argument q=exp(πn/3)q=exp(-\pi \sqrt{n/3}). He then recorded a table of several values of λn:=λn,3\lambda_n:=\lambda_{n,\,\, 3}. All these have been established by B. C. Berndt, H. H. Chan, S.-Y. Kang and L.-C. Zhang \cite{BCB4}. In this paper following Ramanujan we defined a parameter λn,p\lambda_{n, p} at the argument q=exp(πn/p)q=exp(-\pi \sqrt{n/p}). We establish several interesting and new explicit evaluations for λn,p\lambda_{n,\,\, p} using Ramanujan-Weber class invariant, modular equations and mixed-modular equations
