This volume contains the proceedings of an international conference to
commemorate the 125th anniversary of Ramanujan's birth, held from
November 5–7, 2012, at the University of Florida, Gainesville,
Florida.
Srinivasa Ramanujan was India's most famous mathematician. This
volume contains research and survey papers describing recent and
current developments in the areas of mathematics influenced by
Ramanujan. The topics covered include modular forms, mock theta
functions and harmonic Maass forms, continued fractions, partition
inequalities, \(q\)-series, representations of affine Lie algebras and
partition identities, highly composite numbers, analytic number theory
and quadratic forms.
Readership
Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in number theory.
