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, we develop a unified method for obtaining and proving $m$-dissections of mock theta functions. Our approach builds upon a transformation formula for Appell--Lerch sums due to Hickerson and Mortenson, which allows these sums…

We study Lusztig's t-analog of weight multiplicities associated to level one representations of twisted affine Kac-Moody algebras. An explicit closed form expression is obtained for the corresponding t-string function using constant term…

The partition function of type IIA and B strings on R^6xK3, in the T^4/Z_2 orbifold limit, is explicitly computed as a modular invariant sum over spin strutures required by perturbative unitarity in order to extend the analysis to include…

Let G=GL(N), K=GL(p)xGL(q), where p+q=N, and n be a positive integer. We construct a functor from the category of Harish-Chandra modules for the pair (G,K) to the category of representations of the degenerate affine Hecke algebra of type…

We develop a setting in which one can evaluate certain Hecke-Rogers series in terms of false theta functions. We apply our setting to recent false theta function identities of Chan and Kim as well as Andrews and Warnaar.

We call the \emph{$p$-fundamental string} of a complex simple Lie algebra to the sequence of irreducible representations having highest weights of the form $k\omega_1+\omega_p$ for $k\geq0$, where $\omega_j$ denotes the $j$-th fundamental…

We study certain algebras of theta-like functions on partitions, for which the corresponding generating functions give rise to theta functions, quasi-Jacobi forms, Appell-Lerch sums, and false theta functions.

The characters of parafermionic conformal field theories are given by the string functions of affine algebras, which are either twisted or untwisted algebras. Expressions for these characters as generalized Rogers Ramanujan algebras have…

We describe a family of indefinite theta functions of signature $(1,1)$ that can be expressed in terms of trace functions of vertex algebras built from cones in lattices. The family of indefinite theta functions considered has interesting…

The focus of this thesis is on (1) the role of Ka\v c-Moody (KM) algebras in string theory and the development of techniques for systematically building string theory models based on higher level ($K\geq 2$) KM algebras and (2) fractional…

In this paper it is shown that the one-dimensional configuration sums of the solvable lattice models of Andrews, Baxter and Forrester and the string functions associated with admissible representations of the affine Lie algebra A$_1^{(1)}$…

We study zeta functions enumerating submodules invariant under a given endomorphism of a finitely generated module over the ring of ($S$-)integers of a number field. In particular, we compute explicit formulae involving Dedekind zeta…

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 $\vartheta_3(t,q)$…

We define the formal affine Demazure algebra and formal affine Hecke algebra associated to a Kac-Moody root system. We prove the structure theorems of these algebras, hence, extending several result and construction (presentation in terms…

We present a dual formulation of the construction of N=2 nonlinear sigma-model type conformal field theories with c=9 which are mainly used as internal sectors of Calabi-Yau heterotic string compactifications. The supercurrents and the…

Root multiplicities encode information about the structure of Kac-Moody algebras, and appear in applications as far-reaching as string theory and the theory of modular functions. We provide an algorithm based on the Peterson recurrence…

We analyze the map between heterotic and type II N=2 supersymmetric string theories for certain two and three moduli examples found by Kachru and Vafa. The appearance of elliptic j-functions can be traced back to specializations of the…

We propose to use Church encodings in typed lambda-calculi as the basis for an automata-theoretic counterpart of implicit computational complexity, in the same way that monadic second-order logic provides a counterpart to descriptive…

We obtain identities and relationships between the modular $j$-function, the generating functions for the classical partition function and the Andrews $spt$-function, and two functions related to unimodal sequences and a new partition…
