报告摘要:
In this talk, we introduce some new identities for trigonometric functions, some of which involve quadratic residues. For example, we determine the values of $\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1) / 2}\left(1+\tan \pi \frac{k^{2}}{p}\right)$ and $\prod_{k=1}^{(p-1) / 2}\left(1+\cot \pi \frac{k^{2}}{p}\right)$ for any odd prime $p$, and prove (joint with Hao Pan) the novel identity $$\sum_{k=1}^{n}(-1)^{k}(\cot k x) \sin k(n-k) x=\frac{1-n}{2}$$ for any positive odd integer $n$.
