Properties of Lerch Sums and Ramanujan's Mock Theta Functions

General Mathematics 2019-08-02 v6

Abstract

In this article we study properties of Ramanujan's mock theta functions that can be expressed in Lerch sums. We mainly show that each Lerch sum is actually the integral of a Jacobian theta function (here we show that for ϑ3(t,q)\vartheta_3(t,q) and ϑ4(t,q)\vartheta_4(t,q)) and the sec\sec-function. We also prove some modular relations and evaluate the Fourier coefficients of a class of Lerch sums.
