Proof of a conjecture of Stanley-Zanello

Combinatorics 2014-03-05 v2 Number Theory

Abstract

We prove that the number of partitions of an integer into at most b distinct parts of size at most n forms a unimodal sequence for n sufficiently large with respect to b. This resolves a recent conjecture of Stanley and Zanello.
