How are the hypergeometric motives of WZ-Pairs connected?

If $\small{(F,G)}$ is a WZ-pair and general asymptotic conditions $\lim_{k\rightarrow\infty}\small{G(n,k)=0}$ and $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\small{F(n,k)=0}$ hold, then we have the certified ...

A relation concerning the "sum of squares" counting function $r_2(n)$

This is a re-post from MSE as I did not get any response there. Let $r_2(n)$ denote the number of ways in which a positive integer $n$ can be expressed as the sum of squares of two integers. Here ...

On partial sums of the Ramanujan sums

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $c_{m}(n)$ denote the $m^{th}$ Ramanujan sum at $n$. What is the best known estimate for $\sum_{m=1}^{N} c_{m}(n)$?

show that sequence $\{(-1)^n\Upsilon_n\}$ is convergent and strictly decreasing

Edit: Few years ago, I have posted my claim on $\Upsilon$ function regarding prime number but recently I have observed, last observation turns false that's way, (by putting $\Upsilon$ value in ...

Hankel transform of certain $\pm1$ sequences

The present discussion finds its motivation in the comments by Ira Gessel to my earlier MO question. More specifically, $$\prod_{i\geq0}(1-x^{2^i})=\sum_{k\geq0}(-1)^{s_2(k)}x^k$$ where $s_2(k)$ is ...

Doubly log-concave or doubly log-convex

Suppose $(a_k)_{k\geq0}$ is a sequence of real numbers. Consider the operator $\mathcal{L}a_k=a_k^2-a_{k-1}a_{k+1}$. We say $(a_k)_k$ is log-concave (resp. log-convex) provided $\mathcal{L}a_k\geq0$ (...

Question related to sequence of recurrence relation $a_k=\operatorname{rad}(a_{k-1}+a_{k-2})$ for $k\ge 2$ where $a_0=0,a_1=1$

Define radical of an integer Wiki $$\displaystyle{\mathrm{rad}}(n)=\prod_{{\scriptstyle p\mid n\atop p\:{\text{prime}}}}p$$ Example $n=504=2^3\cdot3^2\cdot7$ therefore ${\displaystyle \operatorname{...

Completing a dyadic sum

Suppose I knew the behaviour of a given sum in every other interval, for example: $$ \sum_{\substack{0\leq a \leq x\\ a\equiv 1 (k)}} \sum_{x/(a+k/2)< b \leq x/a} f(b) \sim g(x), $$ for any $x>1$...
