On p-adic modular forms and the Bloch-Okounkov theorem

Bloch-Okounkov studied certain functions on partitions $f$ called shifted symmetric polynomials. They showed that certain $q$-series arising from these functions (the so-called \emph{$q$-brackets} $\left<f\right>_q$) are quasimodular forms. We revisit a family of such functions, denoted $Q_k$, and study the $p$-adic properties of their $q$-brackets. To do this, we define regularized versions $Q_k^{(p)}$ for primes $p.$ We also use Jacobi forms to show that the $\left<Q_k^{(p)}\right>_q$ are quasimodular and find explicit expressions for them in terms of the $\left<Q_k\right>_q$.
