A new approach and generalizations to some results about mock theta functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Some Mock Theta functions have been interpreted in terms of n-color partition. In this paper we use a new technique to gain a deeper insight on these interpretations, as well as we employ this new technique to obtain in a more systematic way similar new interpretations for three other mock theta functions. keywords: mock theta functions, n-color partitions, combinatorial interpretations, modular Ferrers diagrams MSC Primary–11P81, Secondary–05A19

Hypergeometric Series and Their Generalizations in Algebra, Geometry, Number Theory and Physics Titles and Abstracts of Talks
The last decade has seen a veritable explosion of discoveries concerning Ra-manujan's Mock Theta functions. Starting with Sander Zwegers's thesis, a plethora of amazing results have followed, many from participants in this conference. Nonetheless, we are still a long way from understanding how Ramanu-jan came up with many of his results including the Mock Theta Conjectures (first proved by Hick...
متن کاملKac-wakimoto Characters and Universal Mock Theta Functions
In recent work, Bringmann and Ono answer a question of Kac and show that character formulas for s (r + 1, 1)∧ modules due to Kac and Wakimoto are “holomorphic parts” of nonholomorphic modular functions. Here, we confirm a speculation of Ono that these characters are, up to a simple q-series, the universal mock theta functions g2(ω, q) and g3(ω, q) of Gordon and McIntosh. Using recent work of Br...
متن کاملAlmost a Century of Answering the Question: What Is a Mock Theta Function?
Quite a few famous and extraordinarily gifted mathematicians led lives that were tragically cut short. Ramanujan is certainly among them. While suffering from a fatal disease, he discovered what he called mock theta functions. Three months before his death in 1920 at the age of 32, he described them in a letter to Hardy that was written under difficulties and is in places very obscure. [30, p.3...
متن کاملBailey Pairs With Free Parameters, Mock Theta Functions and Tubular Partitions
This study began in an effort to find a simpler derivation of the Bailey pairs associated with the seventh order mock theta functions. It is shown that the introduction of a new parameter independent of both a and q leads to a much simpler treatment. It is noted that a previous treatment of the central fifth order mock theta function inadvertently uses this approach. The paper concludes by appl...
متن کاملNew combinatorial interpretations of some mock theta functions
In 1972, Bender and Knuth established a bijection between certain infinite matrices of non-negative integers and plane partitions and in [2] a bijection between Bender-Knuth matrices and n-color partitions was shown. Here we use this later bijection and translate the recently found n-color partition theoretic interpretations of four mock theta functions of S. Ramanujan in [1] to new combinatori...
