Nov 21, 2017 at 13:55 comment added Nemo @fedja I see your point now, thanks.
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:50 comment added fedja Ah, sorry. Missed the symmetry assumption. Then (assuming my expression is $F(x,y)$), use $F(x/3,y/3)F(y/3,z/3)F(x/3,z/3)$. It is still $0$ with two points fixed. (actually you want more symmetries, but it should get clear that one can do that too)
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:47 comment added Nemo @fedya I hope I'm not missing anything in your comments, but $q^{239}(e^{10x}+ve^{10y})$ is not symmetric in $x,y,z$, so this term do not satisfy the above conditions no matter what the value of $v$ is.
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:41 comment added fedja The problem is that unless you restrict the dependence on $q$, you can always add $q^{239}(e^{x}+ve^{y})$ with appropriately chosen $v$ without affecting any of your conditions and that is a big one.
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:37 comment added Nemo @fedja I really don't see how this is a problem? As you see the base of $f$ in $(5)$ is $q_1$, so if $f$ is a combination of theta functions one can apply imaginary transformation to all theta functions and write them in base $q$, so the RHS of $5$ is a q-series with base $q$. Did this answer your question?
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:30 comment added fedja Erm... This doesn't quite agree with the equation you posted in the "motivation", which also includes powers of $q$, $1-q$, and even $\theta_q(q)$. What am I missing?
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:27 comment added Nemo @fedja yes, as you see I used the notation $\theta_q(x)=\theta(x;q)$ to simplify the formulas. Here $q$ is the base of theta function, not to be confused with the index of the usual definition of Jacobi theta functions.
Nov 21, 2017 at 13:23 comment added fedja Are you assuming that the only dependence on $q$ is in the index of $\theta_q$?
