In this paper we derive some asymptotic formulas for the $q$-Gamma function $\Gamma_{q}(z)$ for $q$ tending to 1.
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…
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.
Let t[n] be a sequence that satisfies a first order homogeneous recurrence t[n] = Q[n]*t[n-1], where Q is a polynomial with integer coefficients. The asymptotic behavior of the p-adic valuation of t[n] is described under the assumption that…
In this paper, we give explicit error bounds for the asymptotic expansion of the shifted distinct partition function $q(n +s)$ for any nonnegative integer $s$. Then based on this refined asymptotic formula, we give the exact thresholds of…
We look at the asymptotic behavior of the coefficients of the $q$-binomial coefficients (or Gaussian polynomials) $\binom{a+k}{k}_q$, when $k$ is fixed. We give a number of results in this direction, some of which involve Eulerian…
We deduce from the strong form of the Hardy--Ramanujan asymptotics for the partition function $p(n)$ an asymptotics for $p_{-S}(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ that do not use parts from a finite set $S$ of positive integers. We apply…
For any $k>1$, we find the asymptotics of the counting function of $k$-th power-free elements in an additive arithmetic semigroup with exponential growth of the abstract prime counting function. This paper continues the authors' earlier…
In a recent paper (Tran et al., Ann.Phys.311(2004)204), some asymptotic number theoretical results on the partitioning of an integer were derived exploiting its connection to the quantum density of states of a many-particle system. We…
Many asymptotic formulas exist for unrestricted integer partitions as well as for distinct partitions of integers into a finite number of parts. Szekeres and Canfield have derived an asymptotic formula for the number of partitions that is…
Partitions without sequences of consecutive integers as parts have been studied recently by many authors, including Andrews, Holroyd, Liggett, and Romik, among others. Their results include a description of combinatorial properties,…
In this paper, we study asymptotics of the thermal partition function of a model of quantum mechanical fermions with matrix-like index structure and quartic interactions. This partition function is given explicitly by a Wronskian of the…
Many papers have studied inequalities for Andrews and Paule's broken $k$-diamond partition function $\Delta_{k}(n)$ when $k=1$ or $2$. In this paper, we derive an exact formula for $\Delta_{k}(n)$ when $k\geq 1$. Building on this result, we…
Let A be a set of positive integers with gcd(A) = 1, and let p_A(n) be the partition function of A. Let c = \pi \sqrt(2/3). Let \alpha > 0. It is proved that log p_A(n) ~ c\sqrt(\alpha n) if and only if the set A has asymptotic density…
We give asymptotic analysis of power series associated with lacunary partition functions. New partition theoretic interpretations of some basic hypergeometric series are offered as examples.
For an integer $q\ge2$, a $q$-recursive sequence is defined by recurrence relations on subsequences of indices modulo some powers of~$q$. In this article, $q$-recursive sequences are studied and the asymptotic behavior of their summatory…
We study the distribution of partition parts in arithmetic progressions and find asymptotic results that capture all exponentially growing terms. This is accomplished by studying the behavior of non-modular Eisenstein series that appear in…
We derive the dominant asymptotic form and the order of the correction terms of the finite-perimeter partition function of self-avoiding polygons on the square lattice, which are weighted according to their area A as q^A, in the inflated…
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 1986, Andrews studied the function $\sigma(q)$ from Ramanujan's ``Lost" Notebook, and made several conjectures on its Fourier coefficients $S(n)$, which count certain partition ranks. In 1988, Andrews-Dyson-Hickerson famously resolved…
