  • In the paper A new parameter for Ramanujan's theta-functions and explicit values, Arab J. Math. Sc., 18 (2012), 105-119, Saikia studied the parameter $A_{k,n}$ involving Ramanujan's theta-functions ${\phi}(q)$ and ${\psi}(q)$ for any positive real numbers k and n and applied it to find explicit values of ${\psi}(q)$. As more application to the parameter $A_{k,n}$, in this paper we prove a new general theorem for explicit evaluation of Ramanujan-$G{\ddot{o}}llnitz$-Gordon continued fraction K(q) in terms of the parameter $A_{k,n}$ and give examples. We also find some new explicit values of the parameter $A_{k,n}$ and offer reciprocity theorems for the continued fraction K(q).

  • In the present paper, we establish relationship between continued fraction U(-q) of order 12 and Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction G(-q) and $G(q^n)$ for n = 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7. Also we evaluate U(q) and U(-q) by using two parameters for Ramanujan's theta-functions and their explicit values.

  • By proving a summation formula, we enumerate the expansions for the mock theta functions of order 2 in terms of partial mock theta functions of order 2, 3 and 6. We show a relation between Ramanujan's ${\mu}(q)$-function and his sixth order mock theta functions. In addition, we also give the continued fraction representation for ${\mu}(q)$ and 2nd order mock theta functions and $Pad\acute{e}$ approximants.

  • Mock theta functions are the most interesting topic mentioned in Ramanujan's Lost Notebook, due to its emerging application in the field of Number theory, Quantum invariants theory and etc. In the present research articles we have made an attempt to develop continued fractions representation of all the existing Mock theta functions.

PROOFS OF CONJECTURES OF SANDON AND ZANELLO ON COLORED PARTITION IDENTITIES

  • In a recent systematic study, C. Sandon and F. Zanello offered 30 conjectured identities for partitions. As a consequence of their study of partition identities arising from Ramanujan's formulas for multipliers in the theory of modular equations, the present authors in an earlier paper proved three of these conjectures. In this paper, we provide proofs for the remaining 27 conjectures of Sandon and Zanello. Most of our proofs depend upon known modular equations and formulas of Ramanujan for theta functions, while for the remainder of our proofs it was necessary to derive new modular equations and to employ the process of duplication to extend Ramanujan's catalogue of theta function formulas.

  • In this paper, we first give some representations for four new mock theta functions defined by Andrews [1] and Bringmann, Hikami and Lovejoy [5] using divisor sums. Then, some transformation and summation formulae for these functions and corresponding bilateral series are derived as special cases of 2𝜓2 series $${\sum\limits_{n=-{{\infty}}}^{{\infty}}}{\frac{(a,c;q)_n}{(b,d;q)_n}}z^n$$ and Ramanujan's sum $${\sum\limits_{n=-{{\infty}}}^{{\infty}}}{\frac{(a;q)_n}{(b;q)_n}}z^n$$.
