Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The work of Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan profoundly influenced the current field of mathematics. Moreover, it not only influenced this science and its scientists, but also predicted physical natural phenomena that we are just beginning to understand, demonstrating his ingenuity and depth of thought.

For this Special Issue we seek high-quality papers that present original research in all fields of mathematical and physical sciences influenced by and bearing the name of Ramanujan.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Abstract
We examine a large class of infinite triple series and establish a general summation formula. This is done by expressing the triple series in terms of definite integrals involving arctangent function that are evaluated in turn in closed forms. Numerous explicit formulae are [...] Read more.
We examine a large class of infinite triple series and establish a general summation formula. This is done by expressing the triple series in terms of definite integrals involving arctangent function that are evaluated in turn in closed forms. Numerous explicit formulae are tabulated for the triple series whose values result in elegant expressions as π, ln2 and the Catalan constant G. Full article

The main contribution of this paper is to propose a closed expression for the Ramanujan constant of alternating series, based on the Euler–Boole summation formula. Such an expression is not present in the literature. We also highlight the only choice for the parameter a in the formula proposed by Hardy for a series of positive terms, so the value obtained as the Ramanujan constant agrees with other summation methods for divergent series. Additionally, we derive the closed-formula for the Ramanujan constant of a series with the parameter chosen, under a natural interpretation of the integral term in the Euler–Maclaurin summation formula. Finally, we present several examples of the Ramanujan constant of divergent series. Full article
