Ramanujan introduced mock theta functions in his last letter to G.H.Hardy. He provided examples and various relations between them. G.N.Watson found transformations for the third order mock theta functions $f(q)$ and $\omega$(q). Zwegers in…
We give new proofs for certain bilateral basic hypergeometric summation formulas using the symmetries of the corresponding series. In particular, we present a proof for Bailey's $_3\psi_3$ summation formula as an application. We also prove…
We express recent double-sums studied by Wang, Yee, and Liu in terms of two types of Hecke-type double-sum building blocks. When possible we determine the (mock) modularity. We also express a recent $q$-hypergeometric function of Andrews as…
Mixed mock modular forms are functions which lie in the tensor space of mock modular forms and modular forms. As q-hypergeometric series, mixed mock modular forms appear to be much more common than mock theta functions. In this survey, we…
We prove a summation formula for a bilateral series whose terms are products of two basic hypergeometric functions. In special cases, series of this type arise as matrix elements of quantum group representations.
We show that some $q$-series such as universal mock theta functions are linear sums of theta quotients and mock Jacobi forms of weight 1/2, which become holomorphic parts of real analytic modular forms when they are restricted to torsion…
We rewrite the recently constructed q-hypergeometric integral Bailey pair in a general form. Then with the help of the Bailey pair and $q$-beta hypergeometric sum-integral, we construct the star-triangle relation.
We obtain two-variable Hecke-Rogers identities for three universal mock theta functions. This implies that many of Ramanujan's mock theta functions, including all the third order functions, have a Hecke-Rogers-type double sum…
In this paper, by the technique of inverse relations and comparing coefficients, we establish some generalized forms of Andrews' q-series identity and two new Bailey pairs and q-identities closely related to Andrews-Warnaar's sum identity…
The duality relation of one-variable multiple polylogarithms was proved by Hirose, Iwaki, Sato and Tasaka by means of iterated integrals. In this paper, we give a new proof using the method of connected sums, which was recently invented by…
In this Ph.D. thesis, written under the direction of D.B. Zagier and R.W. Bruggeman, we study the mock theta functions, that were introduced by Ramanujan. We show how they can be interpreted in the theory of (real-analytic) modular forms.…
Using results from Ramanujan's lost notebook, Zudilin recently gave an insightful proof of a radial limit result of Folsom, Ono, and Rhoades for mock theta functions. Here we see that the author's previous work on the dual nature of…
Zagier introduced the term "strange identity" to describe an asymptotic relation between a certain $q$-hypergeometric series and a partial theta function at roots of unity. We show that behind Zagier's strange identity lies a statement…
In this work, we construct a new Bailey pairs for the integral pentagon identity in terms of q-hypergeometric functions. The pentagon identity considered here represents equality of the partition functions of a certain three-dimensional…
In this paper we add to the literature on the combinatorial nature of the mock theta functions, a collection of curious $q$-hypergeometric series introduced by Ramanujan in his last letter to Hardy in 1920, which we now know to be important…
We prove some new semi-finite forms of bilateral basic hypergeometric series. One of them yields in a direct limit Bailey's celebrated ${}_6\psi_6$ summation formula, answering a question recently raised by Chen and Fu ({\em Semi-Finite…
We evaluate some finite and infinite sums involving $q$-trigonometric and $q$-digamma functions. Upon letting $q$ approach $1$, one obtains corresponding sums for the classical trigonometric and the digamma functions. Our key argument is a…
Hypergeometric functions over finite fields were introduced by Greene in the 1980s as a finite field analogue of classical hypergeometric series. These functions, and their generalizations, naturally lend themselves to, and have been widely…
We prove a new Bailey-type transformation relating WP-Bailey pairs. We then use this transformation to derive a number of new 3- and 4-term transformation formulae between basic hypergeometric series.
Let $(\alpha_n(a,k),\beta_n(a,k))$ be a WP-Bailey pair. Assuming the limits exist, let \[ (\alpha_n^*(a),\beta_n^*(a))_{n\geq 1} = \lim_{k \to 1}\left(\alpha_n(a,k),\frac{\beta_n(a,k)}{1-k}\right)_{n\geq 1} \] be the \emph{derived}…
