Ramanujan's celebrated congruences of the partition function $p(n)$ have inspired a vast amount of results on various partition functions. Kwong's work on periodicity of rational polynomial functions yields a general theorem used to…
The `Congruence Conjecture' was developed by the second author in a previous paper. It provides a conjectural explicit reciprocity law for a certain element associated to an abelian extension of a totally real number field whose existence…
In this work we introduce new combinatorial objects called $d$--fold partition diamonds, which generalize both the classical partition function and the partition diamonds of Andrews, Paule and Riese, and we set $r_d(n)$ to be their counting…
This is an expository article on the recent studies of Ruan's crepant resolution/flop conjecture and its possible relations to the K-theory integral structure in quantum cohomology.
For closed $k$-Schur Katalan functions $\fg{\lambda}{k}$ with $k$ a positive integer and $\lambda$ a $k$-bounded partition, Blasiak, Morse and Seelinger proposed the alternating dual Pieri rule conjecture and the $k$-branching conjecture.…
In 2012 Paule and Radu proved a difficult family of congruences modulo powers of 5 for Andrews' 2-colored generalized Frobenius partition function. The family is associated with the classical modular curve of level 20. We demonstrate the…
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
In their comment (1), Hawreliak et al. claims that our observation of stacking fault formation and transonic dislocation propagation in diamond (2) is not valid as they interpret the observed features as cracks. In this response letter, we…
In 2021 da Silva, Hirschhorn, and Sellers studied a wide variety of congruences for the $k$-elongated plane partition function $d_k(n)$ by various primes. They also conjectured the existence of an infinite congruence family modulo…
We prove a conjecture on Rubin-Stark elements, which was recently proposed by the author, and also by Mazur and Rubin, in a special case.
George Andrews and Peter Paule have recently conjectured an infinite family of congruences modulo powers of 3 for the 2-elongated plane partition function $d_2(n)$. This congruence family appears difficult to prove by classical methods. We…
We built some congruences on semigroups, from where a decomposition of quasi-separative semigroups was obtained.
We have carefully examined the above-referenced paper and find the claims of stacking fault formation and transonic dislocation propagation in diamond to be not valid. Additionally, it is quite puzzling that 14 authors on this paper are…
We give a new and short proof of a theorem on k-hypertournament losing scores due to Zhou et al. [G. Zhou, T. Yao, K. Zhang, On score sequences of k-tournaments, European J. Comb., 21, 8 (2000) 993-1000.]
In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…
We present a conjecture about partitions, with a very elementary formulation.
Recent work of Garvan, Sellers, Smoot, and others has made connections between infinite families of congruences for various partition functions. Here, we apply this approach to families of congruences for PED and POD partitions and find…
The more recent paper "Generic strange duality for K3 surfaces" by the authors contains stronger results.
Let $\overline{bt}(n)$ denote the number of overcubic partition triples of $n$. Nayaka, Dharmendra and Kumar proved some congruences modulo 8, 16 and 32 for $\overline{bt}(n)$. Recently, Saikia and Sarma established some congruences modulo…
We prove that, consistently, there exists a weakly but not strongly inaccessible cardinal $\lambda$ for which the sequence $\langle 2^\theta:\theta<\lambda\rangle$ is not eventually constant and the weak diamond fails at $\lambda$. We also…
