We consider partition functions with insertions of surface operators of topologically twisted N=2, SU(2) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, or Donaldson-Witten theory for short, on a four-manifold. If the metric of the compact four-manifold…

We propose to associate to a modular form (an infinite number of) complex valued functions on the $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$ for each prime $p$. We elaborate on the correspondence and study its consequence in terms of the Mellin…

Various properties of the Mellin transform function $$ {\cal M}_k(s) := \int_1^\infty Z^k(x)x^{-s}dx $$ are investigated, where $$ Z(t) := \zeta(1/2+it){\bigl(\chi(1/2+it)\bigr)}^{-1/2}, \quad \zeta(s) = \chi(s)\zeta(1-s) $$ is Hardy's…

In this paper, we propose a delayed perturbation of Mittag-Leffler type matrix function, which is an extension of the classical Mittag-Leffler type matrix function and delayed Mittag-Leffler type matrix function. With the help of the…

We show that indefinite theta series on cones converge and provide an explicit modular completion. Our completion rests on a convolution of the Gaussian with a piecewise constant function supported on the cone. Our main innovation is to…

This is an extended (factor 2.5) version of arXiv:math/0601371 and arXiv:0808.3486. We present new results in the theory of the classical $\theta$-functions of Jacobi: series expansions and defining ordinary differential equations (\odes).…

In this paper, we will investigate a manifestly $SL(2,R)$-invariant structure for the energy-momentum tensor of ModMax theory as a nonlinear modification of Maxwell electrodynamics which includes conformal invariance as well. In the context…

In this paper we observe that isomorphism classes of certain metrized vector bundles over P^1-{0,infinity} can be parameterized by arithmetic quotients of loop groups. We construct an asymptotic version of theta functions, which are defined…

We study modular transformation properties of a class of indefinite theta series involved in characters of infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebras. The \textit{level-$\ell$ Appell functions} $K_\ell$ satisfy open quasiperiodicity relations…

We show that a family of Dirichlet series generalizing the Fibonacci zeta function $\sum F(n)^{-s}$ has meromorphic continuation in terms of dihedral $\mathrm{GL}(2)$ Maass forms.

On the space of isometric embeddings $f_g$ of metrics $g$ on a manifold $M^n$ into the standard $(\mb{S}^{\tn=\tn(n)},\tg)$, we consider the total exterior scalar curvature $\Theta_{f_g}(M)$, and squared $L^2$ norm of the mean curvature…

We study the character of the infinite wedge projective representation of the algebra of differential operators on the circle. We prove quasi-modularity of this character and also compute certain generating functions for traces of…

Zagier proved that the traces of singular moduli, i.e., the sums of the values of the classical j-invariant over quadratic irrationalities, are the Fourier coefficients of a modular form of weight 3/2 with poles at the cusps. Using the…

It is known that local zeta functions associated with real analytic functions can be analytically continued as meromorphic functions to the whole complex plane. But, in the case of general ($C^{\infty}$) smooth functions, the meromorphic…

Mock modular forms have their origins in Ramanujan's pioneering work on mock theta functions. In a 1975 paper, Zagier proved certain transformation properties of the generating function of the Hurwitz class numbers $H(n)$ for the…

This paper is an annotated list of transformation properties and identities satisfied by the four theta functions $\theta _1$, $\theta _2$, $\theta _3$, $\theta _4$ of one complex variable, presented in a ready-to-use form. An attempt is…

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 revisit the $u$-plane integral of the topologically twisted $\mathcal{N}=2$ super Yang-Mills theory, the Donaldson-Witten theory, on a closed four-manifold $X$ with embedded surfaces that support supersymmetric surface operators. This…

In this note we study $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$-invariant functions such as modular graph functions or coefficient functions of higher derivative corrections in type IIB string theory. The functions solve inhomogeneous Laplace equations and we…

We continue an investigation initiated by Consani-Marcolli of the relation between the algebraic geometry of p-adic Mumford curves and the noncommutative geometry of graph C*-algebras associated to the action of the uniformizing p-adic…
