We prove an infinite family of linear identities for the number $A_5(n)$ of partition pairs of $n$ with $5$-cores by using certain theta function identities involving the Ramanujan's parameter $k(q)$ due to Cooper, and Lee and Park.…
In his lost notebook, Ramanujan listed 5 identities related to the false theta function $$f(q)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^nq^{n(n+1)/2}.$$ A new combinatorial interpretation and proof of one of these identities is given. The methods of the…
We investigate reciprocals of false theta functions, producing results such as congruences, simple asymptotic bounds, and combinatorial identities. Of particular interest is a connection between $1/\Psi(-q^2,q)$ and the truncated pentagonal…
The arithmetic properties of the second order mock theta function $\mathcal{B}(q)$, introduced by McIntosh, defined by \begin{equation*} \mathcal{B}(q) := \sum_{n \geq 0} \frac{q^n (-q;q^2)_n}{(q;q^2)_{n+1}} = \sum_{n \geq 0}b(n)q^n,…
In 2012 Bryson, Ono, Pitman and Rhoades showed how the generating functions for certain strongly unimodal sequences are related to quantum modular and mock modular forms. They proved some parity results and conjectured some mod 4…
We present completions of mock theta functions to harmonic weak Maass forms of weight $1/2$ and algebraic formulas for the coefficients of mock theta functions. We give several harmonic weak Maass forms of weight $1/2$ that have mock theta…
In recent work, Hickerson and the author demonstrated that it is useful to think of Appell--Lerch sums as partial theta functions. This notion can be used to relate identities involving partial theta functions with identities involving…
We derived $q$-continued fractions $X_i(q)$ of order thirty-four and continued fractions $Y_i(q)$ of order sixty-eight from a general continued fraction identity of Ramanujan, where $i=1,2,3,4,5,6,7$ and $8$. We established some…
In this short note, a companion of [20], we discuss several families of $q$-series identities in connection to false and mock theta functions, characters of modules of vertex algebras, and "sum of tails".
Let $\beta(q)=\sum_{n\ge 0} \mathfrak{b}(n)q^n$ be a second order mock theta function defined by $$\sum_{n\ge 0}\frac{q^{n(n+1)}(-q^2;q^2)_n}{(q;q^2)_{n+1}^2}.$$ In this paper, we obtain an infinite family of congruences modulo powers of…
We evaluate $q$-Bessel functions at an infinite sequence of points and introduce a generalization of the Ramanujan function and give an extension of the $m$-version of the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. We also prove several generating…
In this paper we resolve a question by Bringmann, Lovejoy, and Rolen on a new vector-valued $U$-type function. We obtain an expression for a corresponding family of Hecke-Appell-type sums in terms of mixed mock modular forms; that is, we…
Eigenvectors of the discrete Fourier transform can be expressed using Ramanujan theta functions. New theta function identities, Ramanujan theta function identities, and generating functions for the quadratic numbers are a consequence.
We consider two-parameter generalizations of Hecke-Appell type expansions for the generating functions of unimodal and special unimodal sequences. We then determine their explicit representations which involve mixed false theta functions.…
In this research article, we obtain few theta function identities of level ten employing Ramanujan's $_1 \psi_1$ summation formula. Using these identities, we derive a new modular equation of degree five. Further, we establish Eisenstein…
We prove a general alternate circular summation formula of theta functions, which implies a great deal of theta-function identities. In particular, we recover several identities in Ramanujan's Notebook from this identity. We also obtain two…
In this note we give new proofs of two recent mock theta function identities discovered by Garvan and Mukhopadhyay. We also give a new proof of an old mock theta function identity of Watson. Using the setting of Appell function properties…
We consider a mock modular form $M_{\Delta}(\tau)$ that arises naturally from Ramanujan's Delta-function. It is a weight $-10$ harmonic Maass form whose nonholomorphic part is the "period integral function'' of $\Delta(\tau)$. The Hecke…
