We study counting functions of planar polygons arising from homological mirror symmetry of elliptic curves. We first analyze the signature and rationality of the quadratic forms corresponding to the signed areas of planar polygons. Then we prove the convergence, meromorphicity, and mock modularity of the counting functions of convex planar polygons satisfying certain rationality conditions on the quadratic forms.

Figure 8. Different regions on R N −2 for fixed angles. The interior of the cone consists of simple N -gons and possibly complex ones (depending on the convexity), the boundary of the cone represents n-gons with n ≤ N − 1, and the complement of the closure of the cone consists of complex polygons and ones with negative orientations.

False theta functions are functions that are closely related to classical theta functions and mock theta functions. In this paper, we study their modular properties at all ranks by forming modular completions analogous to modular completions of indefinite theta functions of any signature and thereby develop a structure parallel to the recently developed theory of higher depth mock modular forms. We then demonstrate this theoretical base on a number of examples up to depth three coming from characters of modules for the vertex algebra [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and from [Formula: see text]-invariants of three-manifolds associated with gauge group [Formula: see text].

False theta functions form a family of functions with intriguing modular properties and connections to mock modular forms. In this paper, we take the first step towards investigating modular transformations of higher rank false theta functions, following the example of higher depth mock modular forms. In particular, we prove that under quite general conditions, a rank two false theta function is determined in terms of iterated, holomorphic, Eichler-type integrals. This provides a new method for examining their modular properties and we apply it in a variety of situations where rank two false theta functions arise. We first consider generic parafermion characters of vertex algebras of type A2A_2 A 2 and B2B_2 B 2 . This requires a fairly non-trivial analysis of Fourier coefficients of meromorphic Jacobi forms of negative index, which is of independent interest. Then we discuss modularity of rank two false theta functions coming from superconformal Schur indices. Lastly, we analyze Z^{\hat{Z}} Z ^ -invariants of Gukov, Pei, Putrov, and Vafa for certain plumbing H\mathtt{H} H -graphs. Along the way, our method clarifies previous results on depth two quantum modularity.

We study generating functions of certain shapes of planar polygons arising from homological mirror symmetry of elliptic curves. We express these generating functions in terms of rational functions of the Jacobi theta function and Zwegers’ mock theta function and determine their (mock) Jacobi properties. We also analyze their special values and singularities, which are of geometric interest as well.

In this paper, we study a family of rank two false theta series associated to the root lattice of type A2. We show that these functions appear as Fourier coefficients of a meromorphic Jacobi form of negative definite matrix index. Hypergeometric q-series identities are also obtained.

... The property (B), which is good modular transformation property, is proved by Matsusaka-Terashima [MT21] for Seifert homology spheres and Bringmann-Mahlburg-Milas [BMM20] for non-Seifert homology spheres whose surgery diagrams are the H-graphs. Their works are based on the results by Bringmann-Nazaroglu [BN19] and Bringmann-Kaszian-Milas-Nazaroglu [BKMN21], which clarified and proved the modular transformation formulas of false theta functions. ...

... Recently, Gukov-Pei-Putrov-Vafa [21] introduced important q-series called homological blocks for any plumbed 3-manifolds associated with negative definite plumbing tree graphs based on Gukov-Putrov-Vafa [20]. A physical viewpoint strongly suggests that the homological blocks have several interesting properties [6][7][8][9][11][12][13][14][15]19,22,31]. In particular, it is expected that the homological blocks have good modular transformation properties and their special limits at root of unity are identified with the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev (WRT) invariants. ...

... Such a property is conjectured by Gukov-Pei-Putrov-Vafa [10] and proved by Murakami [23,25] by developing two methods: comparison of asymptotic expansions and pruning of plumbed graphs. The first one is based on the technique to compute asymptotic expansions by use of the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula [3,4,23,30]. On the other hand, we can compute asymptotic expansions by using Mellin transform [18,30]. ...

... While mock modular forms have appeared in a number of contexts in mathematical physics, such as in conformal field theory [18,19,20], AdS 3 gravity [21], black holes [22,23,17] and the moonshine phenomenon [24], partition functions involving higher dimensional iterated integrals 1 We refer to Section 2.2 for the definition of D N and other details. of modular forms have been less explored so far. A few instances, where such functions were recently encountered are in the context of open Gromov-Witten theory of elliptic orbifolds [25] and quantum invariants of torus knots [26]. It would be interesting to see whether the modular anomaly also has a physical or mathematical interpretation in these examples. ...
