Contributions to Ramanujan's continued fractions, class invariants, partition identities and modular equations
type: CreativeWork
description: Various topics related to the work of Ramanujan are discussed in this thesis. In Chapter 2, we give a new proof of Ramanujan's famous partition identity modulo 5 (see (1.1)). This proof is an improvement of W. N. Bailey's proof given in 1952. We also establish a new proof of Ramanujan's partition identity modulo 7.
