On a relation between certain $q$-hypergeometric series and Maass waveforms

Number Theory 2016-03-17 v2

Abstract

In this paper, we answer a question of Li, Ngo, and Rhoades concerning a set of qq-series related to the qq-hypergeometric series σ\sigma from Ramanajun's lost notebook. Our results parallel a theorem of Cohen which says that σ\sigma, along with its partner function σ\sigma^*, interpolate the coefficients of a Maass waveform of eigenvalue 1/41/4.
