The family deity Ramanujan revered. In the site, the term marks the devotional context he associated with mathematical insight.

Faith, Namakkal, goddess tradition

KumbakonamPlaces

The Tamil Nadu temple town where Ramanujan was raised, educated, married, and later died in 1920.

Town High School, notebooks, final years

ErodePlaces

Ramanujan's birthplace in present-day Tamil Nadu. He was born there on 22 December 1887.

Birthplace

MadrasPlaces

The colonial-era name for Chennai. Ramanujan worked around Madras before his Cambridge journey and had patrons there.

University of Madras, Port Trust

CambridgePlaces

The English university city where Ramanujan worked with G. H. Hardy at Trinity College from 1914 to 1919.

Hardy, Littlewood, Royal Society

PartitionMathematics

A way of writing a positive integer as a sum of positive integers where order is not counted separately.

p(n), congruences, asymptotic formula

CongruenceMathematics

A modular arithmetic relation saying two quantities leave the same remainder after division by a chosen modulus.

Partition congruences

Mock Theta FunctionMathematics

A mysterious q-series family from Ramanujan's final work, later understood through mock modular forms.

Lost Notebook, final letter

q-SeriesMathematics

A power series in the variable q. Ramanujan used q-series throughout his work on theta functions, products, and partitions.

Rogers-Ramanujan identities

Modular FormMathematics

A highly symmetric complex analytic function. Many later proofs of Ramanujan's results use modular forms.

Tau function, eta products

Srinivasa RamanujanPeople

Indian mathematician whose notebooks, formulas, and conjectures reshaped number theory, analysis, partitions, and q-series.

1887-1920

G. H. HardyPeople

Cambridge mathematician who recognized Ramanujan's genius, invited him to England, and collaborated with him.

Hardy-Ramanujan asymptotic formula

Janaki AmmalPeople

Ramanujan's wife, whose life intersected with his poverty, illness, separation during Cambridge years, and posthumous legacy.

Biography

NotebookConcepts

Ramanujan's handwritten collections of results, often stated without proofs and later studied by many mathematicians.

Three Notebooks, Lost Notebook

Lost NotebookConcepts

A manuscript collection rediscovered after Ramanujan's death, containing important late material including mock theta functions.

George Andrews, 1976 rediscovery

YantraLanguage

A sacred geometric diagram. Here it informs a restrained design vocabulary for mathematical symmetry and order.
