Euler's classic partition identity states that the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts. We develop a new generalization of this identity, which yields a previous…

We construct a family of partition identities which contain the following identities: Rogers-Ramanujan-Gordon identities, Bressoud's even moduli generalization of them, and their counterparts for overpartitions due to Lovejoy et al. and…

Colloidal particles are distinguishable. Moreover, their thermodynamic properties are extensive. Statistical Mechanics predicts such behaviour if one accepts that the configurational integral of a system of N colloids must be divided by N!.…

The main result of the paper is the Fibonacci-like property of the partition function. The partition function $p(n)$ has a property: $p(n) \leq p(n-1) + p(n-2)$. Our result shows that if we impose certain restrictions on the partition, then…

We propose a method to construct a variety of partition identities at once. The main application is an all-moduli generalization of some of Andrews' results in [5]. The novelty is that the method constructs solutions to functional equations…

We prove polynomial boson-fermion identities for the generating function of the number of partitions of $n$ of the form $n=\sum_{j=1}^{L-1} j f_j$, with $f_1\leq i-1$, $f_{L-1} \leq i'-1$ and $f_j+f_{j+1}\leq k$. The bosonic side of the…

The main result of this paper is to show that all binomial identities are orderable. This is a natural statement in the combinatorial theory of finite sets, which can also be applied in distributed computing to derive new strong bounds on…

In 1980, Bressoud conjectured a combinatorial identity $A_j=B_j$ for $j=0$ or $1$, where the function $A_j$ counts the number of partitions with certain congruence conditions and the function $B_j$ counts the number of partitions with…

A partition of a finite abelian group gives rise to a dual partition on the character group via the Fourier transform. Properties of the dual partitions are investigated and a convenient test is given for the case that the bidual partition…
