A new formula for the partition function $p(n)$ is developed. We show that the number of partitions of $n$ can be expressed as the sum of a simple function of the two largest parts of all partitions. Specifically, if $a_1 + >... + a_k = n$…
Let p(n, k) denote the number of partitions of n into parts less than or equal to k. We show several properties of this function modulo 2. First, we prove that for fixed positive integers k and m, p(n,k) is periodic modulo m. Using this, we…
We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…
We expand on the remark by Andrews on the importance of infinite sums and products in combinatorics. Let $\{g_d(n)\}_{d\geq 0,n \geq 1}$ be the double sequences $\sigma_d(n)= \sum_{\ell \mid n} \ell^d$ or $\psi_d(n)= n^d$. We associate…
It is shown that the sequence of rational numbers $r(k)$ generated by the ordinary generating function $\prod_{k=1}^\infty (1+x^k/k)$ converges to a limit $C > 0$. $C$ can be expressed as $C = \exp\Bigl(-\sum_{k = 2}^\infty…
It is shown how to calculate asymptotics of integrals over the positive semi-axis of two functions related to the Degenerate Third Painlev\'e Equation (dP3). As an example, the corresponding results for the meromorphic solution of the dP3…
We derive an asymptotic formula for operator product expansion coefficients of heavy operators in two dimensional conformal field theory. This follows from modular invariance of the genus two partition function, and generalises the…
Motivated by real-world machine learning applications, we analyze approximations to the non-asymptotic fundamental limits of statistical classification. In the binary version of this problem, given two training sequences generated according…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the sequence of sine products $P_n(\alpha) = \prod_{r=1}^n |2\sin \pi r \alpha|$ for real quadratic irrationals $\alpha$. In particular, we study the subsequence $Q_n(\alpha)=\prod_{r=1}^{q_n} |2\sin \pi…
In 1917, Hardy and Ramanujan obtained the asymptotic formula for the classical partition function $p(n)$. The classical partition function $p(n)$ has been extensively studied. Recently, Luca and Ralaivaosaona obtained the asymptotic formula…
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,…
Partition functions for non-interacting particles are known to be symmetric functions. It is shown that powerful group-theoretical techniques can be used not only to derive these relationships, but also to significantly simplify calculation…
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…
The study of partitions with parts separated by parity was initiated by Andrews in connection with Ramanujan's mock theta functions, and his variations on this theme have produced generating functions with a large variety of different…
We obtain an asymptotic upper bound for the product of the $p$-parts of the orders of certain composition factors of a finite group acting completely reducibly and faithfully on a finite vector space of order divisible by a prime $p$. An…
Analytical expressions are derived for the position of irreducible fractions in the Farey sequence $F_N$ of order $N$ for a particular choice of $N$. The asymptotic behaviour is derived obtaining a lower error bound than in previous results…
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…
Let \sum_{n\in N^d} f_{n_1, ..., n_d} x_1^{n_1}... x_d^{n_d} be a multivariate generating function that converges in a neighborhood of the origin of C^d. We present a new, multivariate method for computing the asymptotics of the diagonal…
This work has two main purposes. On the one side we investigate in this work a question of H. Esnault on congruence formula in a construction of H. Esnault and C. Xu for the number of rational points on the closed fiber of a singular model…
We construct a probability model seemingly unrelated to the considered stochastic process of coagulation and fragmentation. By proving for this model the local limit theorem, we establish the asymptotic formula for the partition function of…
