MiS Preprint Repository
We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server end of 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.
Ramanujan Eisenstein Series, Faá di Bruno Polynomials and Integrable Systems
Partha Guha and Dieter MayerAbstract
At first we express the higher order Riccati equation or Fa´a di Bruno polynomial in terms of the modified Ramanujan differential equations in analogy to the relation of the Chazy III equation and the well known Ramanujan equations for the Eisenstein series of the modular group. We relate Ramanujan’s series connected with the pentagonal numbers, introduced by Ramanujan in his Lost Notebook, to the Fa´a di Bruno polynomials and the Riccati chain determined by the Eisenstein series of weight two for the modular group. As a first step to get an explicit expression for the general term in Ramanujan’s polynomial of degree k we derive a formula for the n-th order differential equations this Eisenstein series fulfill.
