Unique q-series decomposition conjecture for Mordell–Borel integrals

About 1 year old · traced to

Let pp be an odd integer and let Jj(A,p)(t)J^{(A,p)}_j(t), Jj(B,p)(t)J^{(B,p)}_j(t), Jj(C,p)(t)J^{(C,p)}_j(t), and Jj(D,p)(t)J^{(D,p)}_j(t) denote the vectors of Mordell–Borel integrals defined in the source. Write qq and q~\widetilde{q} for the parameters associated with the t>0t>0 and analytically continued regions, respectively. Let AA, BB, CC, and DD be the mixing matrices from the unary-side decompositions, and let Φp(a)(q)∨\Phi_p^{(a)}(q)^{\vee} be qq-series for a=1,…,p−1a=1,\ldots,p-1. Unique decomposition conjecture. For all odd pp, the Mordell–Borel integrals at t>0t>0 decompose uniquely into qq-series and q~\widetilde{q}-series according to the displayed identities in the conjecture, and the dual of Ψp(a)(q)\Psi_p^{(a)}(q) is

Ψp(a)(q)∨=q−a24pΦp(a)(q)∨,a=1,…,p−1.\Psi_p^{(a)}(q)^{\vee}=q^{-\frac{a^2}{4p}}\Phi_p^{(a)}(q)^{\vee},\qquad a=1,\ldots,p-1.

This conjecture asserts that the algebraic decomposition relations on the unary side are preserved by unique continuation to t>0t>0, identifying the dual qq-series associated with the false theta functions.
