Article demonstrates closed formulas for infinite products in functions, highlighting links to quasimodular forms.
Recently, Ono and the third author discovered that the reciprocals of the theta series [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] have infinitely many closed formulas in terms of MacMahon’s quasimodular forms [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In this article, we use the well-known infinite product identities due to Jacobi, Watson, and Hirschhorn to derive further such closed formulas for reciprocals of other interesting infinite products. Moreover, with these formulas, we approximate these reciprocals to arbitrary order simply using MacMahon’s functions and MacMahon type functions. For example, let [Formula: see text] be the theta function corresponding to the odd quadratic character modulo [Formula: see text]. Then for any positive integer [Formula: see text], we have [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].
