Abstract
Let be a nonempty set of positive integers. The restricted partition function denotes the number of partitions of with parts in . When the elements in are pairwise relatively prime positive integers, Ehrhart, Sert\"oz-\"Ozl\"uk, and Brown-Chou-Shiue derived three reduction formulas for for with three parameters. We extend their findings for general using the Bernoulli-Barnes polynomials.
