Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The first known $q$-analogues for any of the $17$ formulas for $\frac{1}{\pi}$ due to Ramanujan were introduced in 2018 by Guo and Liu (J Difference Equ Appl 29:505--513, 2018), via the $q$-Wilf--Zeilberger method. Through a ``normalization'' technique based on the $q$-polynomial coefficients involved in first-order difference equations obtained from the $q$-version of Zeilberger's algorithm, we introduce $q$-WZ pairs that extend WZ pairs introduced by Guillera (Adv in Appl Math 29:599--603, 2002). We apply our $q$-WZ pairs to introduce and prove $q$-analogues of two of Ramanujan's series for $\frac{1}{\pi}$ and $q$-analogues of Guillera's first two series for $\frac{1}{\pi^2}$. We also apply our normalization method to further extend Guillera's WZ pairs by introducing hypergeometric expansions for $\frac{1}{\pi^2}$.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
