On modular forms and Domb numbers
Domb numbers are defined as follows, \[ \delta_n \;=\; \sum_{k=0}^{n} (-16)^{\,n-k}\binom{n}{k}\binom{2k}{k}\binom{2n+2k}{n}. \] In the paper under review the author proved the following Ramanujan-type formulas for \(1/\pi\) (appeared in, [\textit{H. H. Chan} and \textit{H. Verrill}, Math. Res. Lett. 16, No. 2--3, 405--420 (2009; Zbl 1193.11038)]), \[ \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}\,\pi} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \left(2n+1-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\right)\, \delta_n\, \left(\frac{3\sqrt{3}-5}{32}\right)^n . \] \[ \frac{2\sqrt{15}}{(3+\sqrt{10})\,45\pi} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \left(2n+1-\frac{\sqrt{10}}{5}\right)\, \delta_n\, \left(\frac{19-6\sqrt{10}}{8}\right)^n . \] The author uses closed forms of the elliptic lambda function \(\lambda^*\) and the elliptic alpha function \(\alpha\), for specific values. Finally, in the conclusion provides some ideas for proving identity (1.7) in the paper, namely \[ \frac{28\sqrt{3}+18\sqrt{7}}{105\pi} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \left(2n+1-\frac{16\sqrt{21}}{105}\right)\, \delta_n\, \left(\frac{55-12\sqrt{21}}{8}\right)^n. \] He reduces the previous problem of finding closed forms for \(\lambda^*(42)\) and \(\alpha(42).\)
