  Abstract

In 1954, Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer proved Dyson's conjectures on the rank of a partition by establishing formulae for the generating functions for rank differences in arithmetic progressions. In this paper, we prove formulae for the generating functions for rank differences for overpartitions. These are in terms of modular functions and generalized Lambert series.
