Abstract: | We define two quotients of theta-function ψ depending on two positive real parameters. We then show how they are connected with two parameters of Dedekind eta-function, theta-function φ, and the Ramanujan-Weber class invariants. Explicit formulas for determining values of the theta-function ψ are derived, and several examples will be given. In addition, we give some applications of these parameters for the famous Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction R(q), Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction G(q), and the modular j-invariant. |
