We introduce the (global) q-Whittaker function as the limit at t=0 of the q,t-spherical function extending the symmetric Macdonald polynomials to arbitrary eigenvalues. The construction heavily depends on the technique of the q-Gaussians…

Integral representations of two $q$-difference operators are provided in terms of special functions arising in the theory of asymptotic solutions to $q$-difference equations in the complex domain. Both representations are unified through…
We introduce a one parameter deformation of Zwegers' multivariable $\mu$-function by applying iterations of the $q$-Borel summation method, which is also a multivariate analogue of the generalized $\mu$-function introduced by the authors.…
We provide a $q$-analogue of Euler's formula for $\zeta(2k)$ for $k\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. Our main results are stated in Theorems 3.1 and 3.2 below. The result generalizes a recent result of Z.W. Sun who obtained $q$-analogues of…
Recently, MacMahon's generalized sum-of-divisor functions were shown to link partitions, quasimodular forms, and q-multiple zeta values. In this paper, we explore many further properties and extensions of these. Firstly, we address a…
In this paper, we use the generalized q-polynomials with double q-binomial coefficients and homogeneous q-operators [J. Difference Equ. Appl. 20 (2014), 837--851.] to construct q-difference equations with seven variables, which generalize…
Let M(q)=\sum c(n) q^n be one of Ramanujan's mock theta functions. We establish the existence of infinitely many linear congruences of the form c(An+B) \equiv 0 (mod \ell^j), where A is a multiple of \ell and an auxiliary prime p. Moreover,…
One of the generalizations of multiple zeta values is the $q$-version, and in the case of finite sums, they may be expressed explicitly in polynomial form. Several results have been found when the powers of the factors in the denominator…
In this paper we obtain explicit formulas for mock theta functions $\Phi^{[m,s]}(\tau, z_1, z_2,t)$ $(m \in \frac12 \mathbf{N}, s \in \frac12 \mathbf{Z})$ by using the coroot lattice of the Lie superalgebra $D(2,1,a)$ and the Kac-Peterson's…
We introduce the multiple zeta functions with structures similar to those of symmetric functions such as Schur $P$-, Schur $Q$-, symplectic and orthogonal functions in the representation theory. We first consider their basic properties such…
We study Appell functions associated to an arbitrary positive definite lattice $\Lambda$ and a choice of $M\leq {\rm dim}(\Lambda)$ linearly independent vectors $d_r\in \Lambda$, $r=1,\dots,M$. These functions are instances of…
In this paper we extend the umbral calculus, developed to deal with difference equations on uniform lattices, to q-difference equations. We show that many of the properties considered for shift invariant difference operators satisfying the…
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.
We find kernel functions of the $q$-Heun equation and its variants. We apply them to obtain $q$-integral transformations of solutions to the $q$-Heun equation and its variants. We discuss special solutions of the $q$-Heun equation from the…
The generating function of partitions with repeated (resp. distinct) parts such that each odd part is less than twice the smallest part is shown to be the third order mock theta function $\omega(q)$ (resp. $\nu(-q)$). Similar results for…
Univariate specializations of Appell's hypergeometric functions F1, F2, F3, F4 satisfy ordinary Fuchsian equations of order at most 4. In special cases, these differential equations are of order 2, and could be simple (pullback)…
Ramanujan presented four identities for third order mock theta functions in his Lost Notebook. In 2005, with the aid of complex analysis, Yesilyurt first proved these four identities. Recently, Andrews et al. provided different proofs by…
Ramanujan studied the analytic properties of many $q$-hypergeometric series. Of those, mock theta functions have been particularly intriguing, and by work of Zwegers, we now know how these curious $q$-series fit into the theory of…
In the first part of the paper we give a definition of G_q-function and we establish a regularity result, obtained as a combination of a q-analogue of the Andre'-Chudnovsky Theorem [And89, VI] and Katz Theorem [Kat70, \S 13]. In the second…
