,Ramanujan’s Theory of Divergent Series,dare to base any proof on them.” This admonition would have been vehemently debated by Ramanujan. Much like Euler, Ramanujan employed divergent series in a variety of ways to establish a diversity of results, most of them valid but a few not so. Divergent series are copious throughout Ramanujan’s no

Ramanujan actually does not express his formulas in terms of ψ(.) but instead in terms of .. As in Chapter 6, Ramanujan really intends ?(.) to be interpreted as ?(. + 1) +

Ramanujan gives several transformations of power series leading to many striking series relations and attractive series evaluations. Most of

Iterates of the Exponential Function and an Ingenious Formal Technique,taken by Bell [2] in 1938. Becker and Riordan [1] and Carlitz [1] have established arithmetical properties for these generalizations of Bell numbers. Also, Ginsburg [1] has briefly considered such iterates. For a combinatorial interpretation of numbers generated by iterated exponential functions, see Stanley’s article [1, Theorem 6.1].

,Ramanujan’s Theory of Divergent Series,ing identities that involve one or more divergent series, one might be led to believe that Ramanujan probably made no distinction between convergent and divergent series. However, the occasional discourse in Chapter 6 is firm evidence that Ramanujan made such a distinction.

Analogues of the Gamma Function, γ, ., where γ denotes Euler’s constant. These 14 sections also contain several evaluations of elementary integrals of rational functions. Certain of these integrals are connected with an interesting series ., which Ramanujan also examined in Chapter 2.
