Theta Functions for Indefinite Polarizations
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a generalization of the classical theta function to higher cohomology of the polarization line bundle on a family of complex tori with positive index. The constructed cocycles vary horizontally with respect to the (projective) flat connection on this family coming from a heat operator. They also possess modular properties similar to the classical ones.

Theta Functions of Indefinite Quadratic Forms over Real Number Fields
We define theta functions attached to indefinite quadratic forms over real number fields and prove that these theta functions are Hilbert modular forms by regarding them as specializations of symplectic theta functions. The eighth root of unity which arises under modular transformations is determined explicitly.
متن کاملMaass Waveforms Arising from Σ and Related Indefinite Theta Functions
The purpose of this paper is to use indefinite theta functions to explain and generalize an example of a Maass waveform which was constructed by Cohen from two functions σ and σ∗, studied by Andrews, Dyson and Hickerson. For this, we construct certain functions attached to an indefinite binary quadratic form and show that they are “nearly” Maass waveforms. In certain special cases we obtain act...
متن کاملOn Two Fifth Order Mock Theta Functions
We consider the fifth order mock theta functions χ0 and χ1, defined by Ramanujan, and find identities for these functions, which relate them to indefinite theta functions. Similar identities have been found by Andrews for the other fifth order mock theta functions and the seventh order functions.
متن کاملMock modular forms and geometric theta functions for indefinite quadratic forms
Mock modular forms are central objects in the recent discoveries of new instances of Moonshine. In this paper, we discuss the construction of mixed mock modular forms via integrals of theta series associated to indefinite quadratic forms. In particular, in this geometric setting, we realize Zwegers’ mock theta functions of type ( p, 1) as line integrals in hyperbolic p-space.
متن کاملOn the modularity of certain functions from the Gromov–Witten theory of elliptic orbifolds
In this paper, we study modularity of several functions which naturally arose in a recent paper of Lau and Zhou on open Gromov-Witten potentials of elliptic orbifolds. They derived a number of examples of indefinite theta functions, and we provide modular completions for several such functions which involve more complicated objects than ordinary modular forms. In particular, we give new closed ...
