On some relations for the rank moduli 9 and 12 (Q1183258)

The author proves some identities conjectured by Lewis concerning the rank moduli 9 and 12 which are similar to Dyson's identities for the rank moduli 5 and 7 which gave combinatorial interpretation to Ramanujan's partition congruences. Multisection of series and some identities for the third and sixth order mock theta functions are used in such a way that all identities for a given modulus reduce to a single theta identity. A typical identity is given by \(N(3,9,3n)=N(4,9,3n)\), where \(N(m,t,n)\) denotes the number of partitions of \(n\) with rank congruent to \(m\) modulo \(t\) and rank of a partition is the difference between the largest part and the number of parts.
