Abstract

Mock theta functions are the most interesting topic mentioned in Ramanujan's Lost Notebook, due to its emerging application in the field of Number theory, Quantum invariants theory and etc. In the present research articles we have made an attempt to develop continued fractions representation of all the existing Mock theta functions.
