It is known that the Selberg zeta function for the modular group has an expression in terms of the class numbers and the fundamental units of the indefinite binary quadratic forms. In the present paper, we generalize such a expression to…
Unary theta functions have played a significant role in the theory of holomorphic modular forms and modular $L$-functions. A partial theta functions is defined analogously, but the sum is over part of the integer lattice. Such sums fail to…
In 2013, Lemke Oliver classified all eta-quotients which are theta functions. In this paper, we unify the eta-theta functions by constructing mock modular forms from the eta-theta functions with even characters, such that the shadows of…
We compute the Moore-Witten regularized u-plane integral on CP^2, and we confirm their conjecture that it is the generating function for the SO(3)-Donaldson invariants of CP^2. We prove this conjecture using the theory of mock theta…
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…
Since their definition in 2010 by Zagier, quantum modular forms have been connected to numerous different topics such as strongly unimodal sequences, ranks, cranks, and asymptotics for mock theta functions near roots of unity. These are…
Siegel defined zeta functions associated with indefinite quadratic forms, and proved their analytic properties such as analytic continuations and functional equations. Coefficients of these zeta functions are called measures of…
In a recent preprint, arXiv:1606.05495v1, Alexandrov, Banerjee, Manschot and Pioline introduced generalized error functions and used them to construct indefinite theta series associated to quadratic lattices L of signature (n-2,2). These…
In this paper, we will apply the tools from number theory and modular forms to the study of the Seiberg-Witten theory. We will express the holomorphic functions $a, a_D$, which generate the lattice $Z=n_e a+n_m a_D, (n_e, n_m) \in…
Let $\eta$ be a closed real 1-form on a closed Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$. Let $d_z$, $\delta_z$ and $\Delta_z$ be the induced Witten's type perturbations of the de~Rham derivative and coderivative and the Laplacian, parametrized by…
We compute the Moore-Witten regularized u-plane integral on CP^1 x CP^1 directly in a chamber where the elliptic unfolding technique fails to work. This allows us to determine explicit formulas for its SU(2) and SO(3)-Donaldson invariants…
Zagier's well-known work on traces of singular moduli relates the coefficients of certain weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight $1/2$ to traces of values of the modular $j$-function at imaginary quadratic points. A real quadratic…
A "modified" variant of the Weierstrass sigma, zeta, and elliptic functions is proposed whereby the zeta function is redefined by $\zeta(z)$ $\mapsto$ $\tilde \zeta(z)$ $\equiv$ $\zeta(z) - \gamma_2z$, where $\gamma_2$ is a lattice…
The modular transformation behavior of theta series for indefinite quadratic forms is well understood in the case of elliptic modular forms due to Vign\'eras, who deduced that solving a differential equation of second order serves as a…
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…
Let (S,H) be a rational algebraic surface with an ample divisor. We compute generating functions for the Hodge numbers of the moduli spaces of H-stable rank 2 sheaves on S in terms of certain theta functions for indefinite lattices that…
The classical inverse problem of recovering a simply connected smooth planar domain from the Steklov spectrum \cite{E} is equivalent to the problem of recovering, up to a conformal equivalence, a positive function $a\in C^\infty({\mathbb…
False theta functions closely resemble ordinary theta functions, however they do not have the modular transformation properties that theta functions have. In this paper, we find modular completions for false theta functions, which among…
We study zeta functions enumerating submodules invariant under a given endomorphism of a finitely generated module over the ring of ($S$-)integers of a number field. In particular, we compute explicit formulae involving Dedekind zeta…
We show the modular properties of the multiple 'elliptic' gamma functions, which are an extension of those of the theta function and the elliptic gamma function. The modular property of the theta function is known as Jacobi's…
