IIRC tmux looks for whatever they are set to in TERM. Use infocmp and look for
eg kf11 etc

Subject: Re: Can we get Tmux to support more Function keys (F-keys) than just
up to F20?
Is there a reference that shows what the escape key codes for those modified
function keys (F13-F64) should be? Most terminal emulator applications don't
really have good coverage of these key combinations, but e.g. iTerm for OS X
does allow you to assign arbitrary escape sequences to key combinations.
So this means I should be able to get all 64 F-keys on iTerm as long as I go
through and assign all the bindings, without having to set terminal-overrides.
Thanks
Steven

tmux in git has F1-F63, although they are now treated as modifiers
because that is how you generate them in practice:
F1-F12 are F1 to F12
F13-F24 are S-F1 to S-F12
F25-F36 are C-F1 to C-F12
F37-F48 are C-S-F1 to C-S-F12
F49-F60 are M-F1 to M-F12
F61-F64 are M-S-F1 to M-S-F3
