In Calabi-Yau string vacua, such theta series encode instanton corrections from NS5-branes, and their transformation properties ensure the mutual consistency of NS5-instantons, D-instantons and wallcrossing. It turns out that the transformations are captured by Faddeev’s quantum dilogarithm, and lead to a new type of quantum dilogarithm identities with the quantization parameter inversely proportional to the NS5-brane charge. %G English %L hal-01386647 %U https://hal.science/hal-01386647 %~ CNRS %~ L2C %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM-2015-2021
