An Alternative Generating Function for $k$-Regular Partitions

Combinatorics 2025-02-25 v1

Abstract

We construct a kk-fold qq-series as a generating function of kk-regular partitions for each positive integer kk. The k=1k=1 case is one of Euler's qq-series identities pertaining to the partitions into distinct parts. The construction is combinatorial. Although we find a connection to Bessel polynomials in the k=2k=2 case, this note is certainly not a study of Bessel polynomials and their qq-analogs.
