Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. In this paper our main goal is to derive an asymptotic expansion up to order $N$ (for any fixed positive integer $N$) along with estimates for error bounds for the shifted quotient of the partition…
In this paper, we obtain asymptotic formulas for an infinite class of rank generating functions. As an application, we solve a conjecture of Andrews and Lewis on inequalities between certain ranks.
We prove that the generating function of partitions into $k$-th powers is strongly Gaussian in the sense of B\'aez-Duarte. Within the probabilistic framework of Khinchin families, the Hardy--Ramanujan asymptotic formula for the…
We consider the generating function of the sine point process on $m$ consecutive intervals. It can be written as a Fredholm determinant with discontinuities, or equivalently as the convergent series \begin{equation*} \sum_{k_{1},...,k_{m}…
In this paper, we show that the difference between the number of parts in the odd partitions of $n$ and the number of parts in the distinct partitions of $n$ satisfies Euler's recurrence relation for the partition function $p(n)$ when $n$…
We present some Euler-type recurrences for the partition function $p(n)$.
We consider a continuous-time simple symmetric random walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in dimension $d \geq 3$, subject to a random potential given by a field of two-sided Wiener processes. In the high-temperature regime, we prove…
In this paper we obtain asymptotic formulas for the Fourier coefficients of an infinite family of crank generating functions. Moreover we use this result to show that the crank obeys certain inequalities. This implies that the crank can not…
We present a natural extension of Andrews' multiple sums counting partitions with difference 2 at distance $k-1$, by deriving the generating function for $K$-restricted jagged partitions. A jagged partition is a collection of non-negative…
We study generating functions of ordinary and plane partitions coloured by the action of a finite subgroup of the corresponding special linear group. After reviewing known results for the case of ordinary partitions, we formulate a…
We express the partition function for an equilibrium system of interacting particles in the canonical ensemble as a functional integration over the particles' density field. We outline a method to evaluate the partition function by…
Let m be a positive integer, and let A be the set of all positive integers that belong to a union of r distinct congruence classes modulo m. We assume that the elements of A are relatively prime, that is, gcd(A) = 1. Let p_A(n) denote the…
A partition polynomial is a refinement of the partition number p(n) whose coefficients count some special partition statistic. Just as partition numbers have useful asymptotics so do partition polynomials. In fact, their asymptotics…
In this paper, we obtain upper and lower bounds for the partition function $p(n)$ by using an elementary geometric inequality in Euclidean space, and we extend the method to generalizations of the partition function.
We consider partitions $p_{w}(n)$ of a positive integer $n$ arising from the generating functions \[ \sum_{n=1}^\infty p_{w}(n) z^n = \prod_{m \in \mathbb{N}} (1-z^m)^{-w(m)}, \] where the weights $w(m)$ are M\"{o}bius convolutions. We…
In the $1970$s, Nicolas proved that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for $ n > 25$. In \cite{HNT21}, a precise conjecture on the log-concavity for the plane partition function $\func{pp}(n)$ for $n >11$ was stated. This was…
We prove an explicit formula to count the partitions of $n$ whose product of the summands is at most $n$. In the process, we also deduce a result to count the multiplicative partitions of $n$.
We study the complexity classes P and NP through a semigroup fP ("polynomial-time functions"), consisting of all polynomially balanced polynomial-time computable partial functions. Then P is not equal to NP iff fP is a non-regular…
We examine "partition zeta functions" analogous to the Riemann zeta function but summed over subsets of integer partitions. We prove an explicit formula for a family of partition zeta functions already shown to have nice properties -- those…
We develop the theory of weighted P-partitions, which generalises the theory of P-partitions from labelled posets to weighted labelled posets. We define the related generating functions in the natural way and compute their product,…
