For this we apply the Hardy-Ramanujan circle method extended to mock modular forms. Our formulas for the $M_2$-rank at roots of unity lead to asymptotics for certain combinations of $N2(r,m,n)$ (the number of partitions without repeated odd parts of $n$ with $M_2$-rank congruent to $r$ modulo $m$). This allows us to deduce inequalities among certain combinations of $N2(r,m,n)$. In particular, we resolve a few conjectured inequalities of Mao.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-05-29T09:17:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "repeated odd parts", "asymptotic formulas", "partitions", "rank generating function", "hardy-ramanujan circle method" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
