Abstract

In this paper we find the smallest part function related to the 44-th symmetrized crank function, corresponding to the one obtained in Patkowski [11] for the 44-th symmetrized rank function. This provides us with a direct relationship with Garvan's second order smallest part function. We obtain some congruences for these sptspt functions, as well as asymptotics and inequalities. A finite qq-series which generates an sptspt function related to the second crank moment is also stated. This identity has an important relationship to the one obtained by Patkowski [12] related to the second rank moment.
