We make a summary of the different types of proofs adding some new ideas. In addition we conjecture some relations which could be necessary in "modular type proofs" (not still found) of the Ramanujan-like series for 1/\pi^2.

On proving some of Ramanujan's formulas for $\frac{1}{\pi}$ with an elementary method
In this paper we want to prove some formulas listed by S. Ramanujan in his paper "Modular equations and approximations to $\pi$" \cite{24} with an elementary method.
Divisibility of some binomial sums
• Mathematics
• 2018
With help of $q$-congruence, we prove the divisibility of some binomial sums. For example, for any integers $\rho,n\geq 2$, \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(4k+1) \binom{2k}{k}^\rho \cdot (-4)^{\rho(n-1-k)} \equiv

On WZ-pairs which prove Ramanujan series
The known WZ-proofs for Ramanujan-type series related to 1/π gave us the insight to develop a new proof strategy based on the WZ-method. Using this approach we are able to find more generalizations
WZ-proofs of "divergent" Ramanujan-type series
We prove some “divergent” Ramanujan-type series for $$1/\pi$$ and $$1{/\pi }^{2}$$ applying a Barnes-integrals strategy of the WZ-method. In addition, in the last section, we apply the WZ-duality
Divergent Ramanujan-type supercongruences
• Mathematics
• 2012
"Divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ provide us with new nice examples of supercongruences of the same kind as those related to the convergent cases. In this paper we manage to
A new Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$
Our main results are a WZ-proof of a new Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$ and a hypergeometric identity involving three series.
Mosaic Supercongruences of Ramanujan Type
Congruences of supercongruences of Ramanujan type observed by L. Van Hamme and W. Zudilin are presented, inspired by Ramanuja-type series that involve quadratic algebraic numbers.
Domb's numbers and Ramanujan–Sato type series for 1/π
• Mathematics
• 2004
Abstract In this article, we construct a general series for 1 π . We indicate that Ramanujan's 1 π -series are all special cases of this general series and we end the paper with a new class of 1 π
Ramanujan-type supercongruences
Abstract We present several supercongruences that may be viewed as p-adic analogues of Ramanujan-type series for 1 / π and 1 / π 2 , and prove three of these examples.
Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$ and String Theory

Using the machinery from the theory of Calabi-Yau differential equations, we find formulas for $1/\pi^2$ of hypergeometric and non-hypergeometric types.
Ramanujan-type formulae for 1/π: a second wind?
