Mock modular forms whose shadows are Eisenstein series of integral weight

Abstract: The purpose of this article is to give a simple and explicit construction of mock modular forms whose shadows are Eisenstein series of arbitrary integral weight, level, and character. As application, we construct forms whose shadows are Hecke's Eisenstein series of weight one associated to imaginary quadratic fields, recovering some results by Kudla, Rapoport and Yang (1999), and Schofer (2009), and forms whose shadows equal $\Theta^{2k}(z)$ for $k\in {1,2,3,4}$, where $\Theta(z)$ denotes Jacobi's theta function.
