The Stokes phenomenon for the Ramanujan's $q$-difference equation and its higher order extension

We show connection formulae of local solutions of the Ramanujan equation between the origin and the infinity. These solutions are given by the Ramanujan function, the $q$-Airy function and the divergent basic hypergeometric series ${}_2φ_0(0,0;-;q,x)$. We use two different $q$-Borel-Laplace resummation methods to obtain our connection formulae. We also introduce the $q$-Borel-Laplace transformation of level $r-1$, which are higher order extension of these transformations. These methods are useful to obtain an asymptotic formula of a divergent series ${}_rφ_0(0,0,\dots ,0;-;q,x)$.
