Abstract
Extending recent results in string compactifications, we propose that the holomorphic anomaly equation satisfied by the modular completions of the generating functions of refined BPS indices has a universal structure independent of the number of supersymmetries. We show that this equation allows to recover all known results about modularity (under duality group) of BPS states in string theory. In particular, we reproduce the holomorphic anomaly characterizing the mock modular behavior of quarter-BPS dyons and generalize it to the case of non-trivial torsion invariant.
