We find the Hecke-Rogers type series representations of generating functions of the Hurwitz class numbers which is very close to certain mock theta functions. We also prove two combinatorial interpretation of Hurwitz class numbers appeared…

Ramanujan listed several q-series identities in his lost notebook. The most well known q-series identities are the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities which are first discovered by Rogers and then rediscovered by Ramanujan. In this paper, we…

In 2002, Andrews, Lewis, and Lovejoy introduced the combinatorial objects which they called {\it partitions with designated summands}. These are built by taking unrestricted integer partitions and designating exactly one of each occurrence…

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…

In a private communication, K. Ono conjectured that any mock theta function of weight 1/2 or 3/2 can be congruent modulo a prime $p$ to a weakly holomorphic modular form for just a few values of $p$. In this paper we describe when such a…

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…

In the quantum theory, using the notion of partial supersymmetry, in which some, but not all, operators have superpartners we derive the Euler theorem in partition theory. The paraferminic partition function gives another identity in…

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.

In this note, we provide three new, very short proofs of two interesting congruences for Merca's partition function $a(n)$, which enumerates integer partitions where the odd parts have multiplicity at most 2. These modulo 2 congruences were…

By the theory of Eisenstein series, generating functions of various divisor functions arise as modular forms. It is natural to ask whether further divisor functions arise systematically in the theory of mock modular forms. We establish,…

Recently, Andrews and Merca have given a new combinatorial interpretation of the total number of even parts in all partitions of n into distinct parts. We generalise this result and consider many more variations of their work. We also…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…

The study of partitions with parts separated by parity was initiated by Andrews in connection with Ramanujan's mock theta functions, and his variations on this theme have produced generating functions with a large variety of different…

We obtain an explicit formula for the mock theta function $\Phi^{[m,s]}$ in the case when either $m$ or $s$ is a half of an odd integer by using the coroot lattice of $D(2,1;a)$. This enables us, together with the recurrence formula for…

For a given prime $p$, we study the properties of the $p$-dissection identities of Ramanujan's theta functions $\psi(q)$ and $f(-q)$, respectively. Then as applications, we find many infinite family of congruences modulo 2 for some…

We compute asymptotic estimates for the Fourier coefficients of two mixed mock modular forms, which come from Bailey pairs derived by Lovejoy and Osburn. To do so, we employ the circle method due to Wright and a modified Tauberian theorem.…
