Abstract：

Let $r\geq 1$ be a positive integer, $A$ a real positive definite symmetric $r\times r$ rational matrix, $B$ a rational vector of length $r$, and $C$ a rational scalar. Nahm's problem is to find all triples $(A,B,C)$ such that the $r$-fold $q$-hypergeometric series

$$f_{A,B,C}(q):=\sum_{n=(n_1,\dots,n_r)^\mathrm{T}\in (\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0})^r} \frac{q^{\frac{1}{2}n^\mathrm{T} An+n^\mathrm{T} B+C}}{(q;q)_{n_1}\cdots (q;q)_{n_r}}$$

becomes a modular form, and we call such $(A,B,C)$ a modular triple. When the rank $r=3$, after extensive computer searches, Zagier provided twelve sets of conjectural modular triples and proved three of them. We prove a number of Rogers-Ramanujan type identities involving triple sums. These identities give modular form representations for and thereby verify all of Zagier's rank three examples. In particular, we prove a conjectural identity of Zagier.
