abstract
We generalize the construction from arXiv:2102.09329 of theta series for quadratic forms of signature $(n-1,1)$ with homogeneous and spherical polynomials. Namely, we allow that the parameters $c_1,c_2$, which define the theta series and ensure the convergence of the defining series, are located on the boundary of the cone $C_Q$. This enables us to study several interesting examples such as Eisenstein series, modular forms on $\Gamma_0(4)$ which appear during the investigation of quadratic polynomials of a fixed discriminant, and a mock theta function of order 2 that is connected to the generating function of the Hurwitz class numbers $H(8n+7)$.
