Arithmetic Identities for Some Analogs of $5$-core Partition Function

Recently, Gireesh, Ray, and Shivashankar studied an analog, $\overline{a}_t(n)$, of the $t$-core partition function, $c_t(n)$. In this paper, we study the function $\overline{a}_5(n)$ in conjunction with $c_5(n)$ as well as another analogous function $\overline{b}_5(n)$. We also find several arithmetic identities for $\overline{a}_5(n)$ and $\overline{b}_5(n)$.
