In this paper, we derive some formulae involving coefficients of polynomials which occur quite naturally in the study of restricted partitions. Our method involves a recently discovered sieve technique by Li and Wan (Sci. China. Math.…

We study the number $p(n,t)$ of partitions of $n$ with difference $t$ between largest and smallest parts. Our main result is an explicit formula for the generating function $P_t(q) := \sum_{n \ge 1} p(n,t) \, q^n$. Somewhat surprisingly,…

A fundamental problem in numerical analysis and approximation theory is approximating smooth functions by polynomials. A much harder version under recent consideration is to enforce bounds constraints on the approximating polynomial. In…

In this paper we present a new formula for the number of unrestricted partitions of $n$. We do this by introducing a correspondence between the number of unrestrited partitions of $n$ and the number of non-negative solutions of systems of…

Let $\mathbf a=(a_1,\ldots,a_r)$ be a sequence of positive integers and $k\geq 2$ an integer. We study $p_{k,\mathbf a}(n)$, the restricted $k$-multipartition function associated to $\mathbf a$ and $k$. We prove new formulas for…

This article introduces recursive relations allowing the calculation of the number of partitions with constraints on the minimum and/or on the maximum fragment size.

We give a complexity dichotomy for the problem of computing the partition function of a weighted Boolean constraint satisfaction problem. Such a problem is parameterized by a set of rational-valued functions, which generalize constraints.…

We give an elementary algebraic proof of Paradan's wall crossing formulae for partition functions. We also express such jumps in volume and partition functions by one dimensional residue formulae. Subsequently we reprove the relation…

Fourier expansion of the integrand in the path integral formula for the partition function of quantum systems leads to a deterministic expression which, though still quite complex, is easier to process than the original functional integral.…

In this article, we provide partition-theoretic interpretations for some new truncated pentagonal number theorem and identities of Gauss. Also, we deduce few inequalities for some partition functions.

We improve the estimates in the restriction problem in dimension $n \ge 4$. To do so, we establish a weak version of a $k$-linear restriction estimate for any $k$. The exponents in this weak $k$-linear estimate are sharp for all $k$ and…

We prove a structural result for degree-$d$ polynomials. In particular, we show that any degree-$d$ polynomial, $p$ can be approximated by another polynomial, $p_0$, which can be decomposed as some function of polynomials $q_1,...,q_m$ with…

This paper gives a dichotomy theorem for the complexity of computing the partition function of an instance of a weighted Boolean constraint satisfaction problem. The problem is parameterised by a finite set F of non-negative functions that…

We study the regularity of densities of distributions that are polynomial images of the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We assume that the degree of a polynomial is fixed and that each variable enters to a power bounded by…

The partition function, $p_A(n)$, is defined to be the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in the set A, where $n$ is a positive integer and $A$ is a set of positive integers. It is well documented that: if A is a finite set with…

We derive a formula for $p(n)$ (the number of partitions of $n$) in terms of the partial Bell polynomials using Fa\`{a} di Bruno's formula and Euler's pentagonal number theorem.

Two new expansions for partial sums of Gauss' triangular and square numbers series are given. As a consequence, we derive a family of inequalities for the overpartition function $\bar{p}(n)$ and for the partition function $p_1(n)$ counting…

In this paper, we generalize recent work of Mizuhara, Sellers, and Swisher that gives a method for establishing restricted plane partition congruences based on a bounded number of calculations. Using periodicity for partition functions, our…

For a subset $\mathcal A\subset \mathbb N$, let $p_{\mathcal A}(n)$ denote the restricted partition function which counts partitions of $n$ with all parts lying in $\mathcal A$. In this paper, we use a variation of the Hardy-Littlewood…

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 $a_1 + >... + a_k = n$…
