Higher depth mock theta functions and $q$-hypergeometric series (2101.04991v4)

Abstract: In the theory of harmonic Maass forms and mock modular forms, mock theta functions are distinguished examples which arose from $q$-hypergeometric examples of Ramanujan. Recently, there has been a body of work on higher depth mock modular forms. Here, we introduce distinguished examples of these forms which we call higher depth mock theta functions and develop $q$-hypergeometric expressions for them. We provide three examples of mock theta functions of depth two, each arising by multiplying a classical mock theta function with a certain specialization of a universal mock theta function. In addition, we give their modular completions, and relate each to a $q$-hypergeometric series.
