Abstract: The bivariate series $heta(q,x):=su{m}_{j=0}^{infty}{q}^{j(j+1)/2}{x}^j$ %(where $$, $|q|<1$) defines a {em partial theta function}. For fixed $q$ ($|q|<1$), $heta(q,.)$ is an entire function. For $qin(-1,0)$ the function $heta(q,.)$ has infinitely many negative and infinitely many positive real zeros. There exists a sequence $$ of values of $q$ tending to $-1^{+}$ such that $$ has a double real zero $$ (the rest of its real zeros being simple). For $k$ odd (resp. for $k$ even) $$ has a local minimum at $$ and $$ is the rightmost of the real negative zeros of $$ (resp. $$ has a local maximum at $$ and for $k$ sufficiently large $$ is the second from the left of the real negative zeros of $$). For $k$ sufficiently large one has $$. One has $$ and $$.
