Certain bilateral basic hypergeometric transformations and mock theta functions

From MaRDI portal





Ramanujan's ten mock theta functions of order five are made bilatral by extending the range of summation. Using appropriate \({_2\psi_2}\) transformations, the author derives alternative expressions for these bilateral mock theta functions. An example is, \[ F_{0c}(q)= \sum^\infty_{-\infty} {q^{2n^2}\over (q; q^2)_n}= \sum^\infty_{-\infty} (-1)^n q^{n^2}(q; q^2)_n.\tag{\(*\)} \] A number of relations between the functions are established; some of them involve also certain other series, whose summands are akin to those shown in \((*)\).
