Deviation of the rank and crank modulo 11

Abstract

In this paper, we build on recent results of Frank Garvan and Rishabh Sarma as well as classical results of Bruce Berndt in order to establish the 11-dissection of the deviations of the rank and crank modulo 11. Using our new dissections we re-derive results of Garvan, Atkin, Swinnerton-Dyer, Hussain and Ekin. By developing and exploiting positivity conditions for quotients of theta functions, we will also prove new rank-crank inequalities and make several conjectures. For other applications of our methods, we will prove new congruences for rank moments as well as the Andrews' smallest parts function and Eisenstein series.
