The Stokes phenomenon for the Ramanujan's $q$-difference equation and its higher order extension (1404.2541v1)

Abstract: We show connection formulae of local solutions of the Ramanujan equation between the origin and the infinity. These solutions are given by the Ramanujan function, the $q$-Airy function and the divergent basic hypergeometric series ${}_2\varphi_0(0,0;-;q,x)$. We use two different $q$-Borel-Laplace resummation methods to obtain our connection formulae. We also introduce the $q$-Borel-Laplace transformation of level $r-1$, which are higher order extension of these transformations. These methods are useful to obtain an asymptotic formula of a divergent series ${}_r\varphi_0(0,0,\dots ,0;-;q,x)$.
