On a pair of Ramanujan's modular equations and $P$-$Q$ theta functions of level 35

Authors: K. R. VASUKI, ANUSHA T

Abstract: S. Ramanujan recorded several modular equations and $P$-$Q$ theta function identities in his notebooks and lost notebook without recording the proofs. In this paper, we provide an elementary proof of two modular equations and two $P$-$Q$ theta function identities of level 35, which have been proved by B.C. Berndt using the theory of modular forms.

Keywords: Theta function, modular equation
