A new topological invariant of closed connected orientable four-dimensional manifolds is proposed. The invariant, constructed via surgery on a special link, is a four-dimensional counterpart of the celebrated SU(2) three-manifold invariant…

This survey covers some of the results contained in the papers by Costantino, Geer and Patureau (https://arxiv.org/abs/1202.3553) and by Blanchet, Costantino, Geer and Patureau (https://arxiv.org/abs/1404.7289). In the first one the authors…

We provide a geometric construction of the boundary states for handlebodies which we in turn use to give a geometric formula for the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum invariants. We then analyze the asymptotics of this invariant in the…

The classical transformation of Jacobi's theta function admits a simple proof by producing an integral representation that yields this invariance apparent. This idea seems to have first appeared in the work of S. Ramanujan. Several examples…

Andrews and the third author recently studied congruences for certain restricted two-color partitions. They made two conjectures for Ramanujan-type congruences and a vanishing identity for the limiting sequence. In this paper, we settle…

The Kronecker theta function is a quotient of the Jacobi theta functions, which is also a special case of Ramanujan's $_1\psi_1$ summation. Using the Kronecker theta function as building blocks, we prove a decomposition theorem for theta…

Using results from Ramanujan's lost notebook, Zudilin recently gave an insightful proof of a radial limit result of Folsom, Ono, and Rhoades for mock theta functions. Here we see that the author's previous work on the dual nature of…

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…

Theta functions were defined for varieties with effective anticanonical divisor and are related to certain punctured Gromov-Witten invariants. In this paper we show that in the case of a log Calabi-Yau surface (X,D) with smooth very ample…

In this short notes we will derive an inequality for scaled $q^{-1}$-Hermite orthogonal polynomials of Ismail and Masson, an inequality for scaled Stieltjes-Wigert, two inequalities for Ramanujan function and two definite integrals for…

In this note, we explicitly construct mock modular forms with integral Fourier coefficients by evaluating regularized Petersson inner products involving their shadows, which are unary theta functions of weights 1/2 and 3/2 . In addition, we…

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…

We calculate the RT-invariants of all oriented Seifert manifolds directly from surgery presentations. We work in the general framework of an arbitrary modular category as in [V. G. Turaev, Quantum invariants of knots and 3--manifolds, de…

This is a survey of our recent work with Tom Mrowka on Seiberg-Witten gauge theory and index theory for manifolds with periodic ends. We explain how this work leads to a new invariant, which is related to the classical Rohlin invariant of…

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.…

In this paper, we study modular transformation properties of a certain class of functions with indefinite quadratic forms.

For Seifert manifold $M=X({p_1}/_{\f{q_1}},{p_2}/_{\f{q_2}}, ...,{p_n}/_ {\f{q_n}}), \tau^{'}_r(M)$ is calculated for all $r$ odd $\geq 3$. If $r$ is coprime to at least $n-2$ of $p_k$ (e.g. when $M$ is the Poincare homology sphere), it is…

We define analogue of theta-functions on the Kodaira--Thurston manifold which is a compact 4-dimensional symplectic manifold and use them to construct canonical symplectic embedding of the Kodaira--Thurston manifold into the complex…

The bilateral series corresponding to many of the third-, fifth-, sixth- and eighth order mock theta functions may be derived as special cases of $_2\psi_2$ series \[ \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{(a,c;q)_n}{(b,d;q)_n}z^n. \] Three…

Using Appell function properties we give short proofs of Ramanujan-like identities for the eighth order mock theta function $V_0(q)$ after work of Chan and Mao; Mao; and Brietzke, da Silva, and Sellars. We also present a generalization of…
