摘要

Since their definition in 2010 by Zagier, quantum modular forms have been connected to numerous topics such as strongly unimodal sequences, ranks, cranks, and asymptotics for mock theta functions near roots of unity. These are functions that are not necessarily defined on the upper half plane but a priori are defined only on a subset of , and whose obstruction to modularity is some analytically "nice" function. Motivated by Zagier's example of the quantum modularity of Kontsevich's "strange" function F(q), we revisit work of Andrews, Jim,nez-Urroz, and Ono to construct a natural vector-valued quantum modular form whose components are similarly "strange".
