Abstract

We investigate reciprocals of false theta functions, producing results such as congruences, simple asymptotic bounds, and combinatorial identities. Of particular interest is a connection between 1/Ψ(-q2,q) and the truncated pentagonal number theorem of Andrews and Merca. We record a useful dissection identity analogous to the known theta function dissection.
