In 1975, G. E. Andrews challenged the mathematics community to address L. Ehrenpreis' problem, which was to directly prove the modularity of the Rogers-Ramanujan $q$-series' summatory forms. This question is important because many different…
The Alder-Andrews Theorem, a partition inequality generalizing Euler's partition identity, the first Rogers-Ramanujan identity, and a theorem of Schur to $d$-distinct partitions of $n$, was proved successively by Andrews in 1971, Yee in…
Andrews and Merca [J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 203 (2024), Art. 105849] recently obtained two interesting results on the sum of the parts with the same parity in the partitions of $n$ (the modulo $2$ case), the proof of which relies on…
The main motivation for this article is to explore the connections between the existence of certain combinatorial patterns (as in van der Corputs's theorem on arithmetic progressions of length $3$) with well-known tools and theorems for…
The notion of broken $k$-diamond partitions was introduced by Andrews and Paule. Let $\Delta_k(n)$ denote the number of broken k-diamond partitions of $n$. They also posed three conjectures on the congruences of $\Delta_2(n)$ modulo 2, 5…
While examples of Ramanujan-type congruences are amply available via their relation to Hecke operators, it remains unclear which of them should be considered of combinatorial origin and which of them are mere artifacts of the connection…
Recently, Andrews and Ghosh Dastidar (Ramanujan J. \textbf{69}, Art. No. 26, 2026) studied two interesting functions $SOME(n)$ and $DSOME(n)$, where $SOME(n)$ is the sum of all the odd parts in the partitions of $n$ minus the sum of all…
In his striking 1995 paper, Borcherds found an infinite product expansion for certain modular forms with CM divisors. In particular, this applies to the Hilbert class polynomial of discriminant $-d$ evaluated at the modular $j$-function.…
We study certain arithmetic properties of an analogue $B(n)$ of Lin's restricted partition function that counts the number of partition triples $\pi=(\pi_1,\pi_2,\pi_3)$ of $n$ such that $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ comprise distinct odd parts and…
Numerous congruences for partitions with designated summands have been proven since first being introduced and studied by Andrews, Lewis, and Lovejoy. This paper explicitly characterizes the number of partitions with designated summands…
In answer to a question of Andrews about finding combinatorial proofs of two identities in Ramanujan's "Lost" Notebook, we obtain weighted forms of Euler's theorem on partitions with odd parts and distinct parts. This work is inspired by…
Presented are polynomial identities which imply generalizations of Euler and Rogers--Ramanujan identities. Both sides of the identities can be interpreted as generating functions of certain restricted partitions. We prove the identities by…
Let $p_{\{3, 3\}}(n)$ denote the number of $3$-regular partitions in three colours. In a very recent paper, da Silva and Sellers studied certain arithmetic properties of $p_{\{3, 3\}}(n)$. They further conjectured four Ramanujan-like…
Recently, Shen (2016) and Alanazi et al. (2016) studied the arithmetic properties of the $\ell$-regular overpartition function $\overline{A}_\ell (n)$, which counts the number of overpartitions of $n$ into parts not divisible by $\ell$. In…
In a recent article, Apagodu and Zeilberger (http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.03351)discuss some applications of an algorithm for finding and proving congruence identities (modulo primes) of indefinite sums of many combinatorial sequence. At the…
In this paper, we extend properties Going Up and Lying Over from ring theory to the general setting of congruence--modular equational classes, using the notion of prime congruence defined through the commutator. We show how these two…
Let $NT(m, k, n)$ denote the total number of parts in the partitions of n with rank congruent to m modulo k. Andrews proved Beck's conjecture on congruences for $NT(m, k, n)$ modulo 5 and 7. Generalizing Andrews'results, Chern obtain…
Motivated by two Legendre-type formulas for overpartitions, we derive a variety of their companions as Legendre theorems for overpartition pairs. This leads to equalities of subclasses of overpartitions and overpartition pairs.
We construct an evidently positive multiple series as a generating function for partitions satisfying the multiplicity condition in Schur's partition theorem. Refinements of the series when parts in the said partitions are classified…
This paper is concerned with a class of partition functions $a(n)$ introduced by Radu and defined in terms of eta-quotients. By utilizing the transformation laws of Newman, Schoeneberg and Robins, and Radu's algorithms, we present an…
