On a two-variable -adic -function.
We provide a new approach to establishing certain q-series identities that were proved by Andrews, and show how to prove further identities using conjugate Bailey pairs. Some relations between some q-series and ternary quadratic forms are established.
We show that some partitions related to two of Ramanujan's mock theta functions are related to indefinite quadratic forms and real quadratic fields. In particular, we examine a third order mock theta function and a fifth order mock theta function.
