Abstract

Let kk be a positive integer and mm be an integer. Garvan's kk-rank Nk(m,n)N_k(m,n) is the number of partitions of nn into at least (k1)(k-1) successive Durfee squares with kk-rank equal to mm. In this paper give some asymptotics for Nk(m,n)N_k(m,n) with mn|m|\ge \sqrt{n} as nn\rightarrow \infty. As a corollary, we give a more complete answer for the Dyson's crank distribution conjecture. We also establish some asymptotic formulas for finite differences of Nk(m,n)N_k(m,n) with respect to mm with mnlognm\gg \sqrt{n}\log n.
