Elliptic genera and characteristic q-series of superconformal field theory

We analyze the characteristic series, the KO series and the series associated with the Witten genus, and their analytic forms as the q-analogs of classical special functions (in particular q-analog of the beta integral and the gamma function). q-Series admit an analytic interpretation in terms of th...
