We study the Stable Fixtures problem, a many-to-many generalisation of the classical non-bipartite Stable Roommates matching problem. Building on the foundational work of Tan on stable partitions, we extend his results to this significantly…
The Littlewood-Offord problem is a classical question in probability theory and discrete mathematics, proposed, firstly by Littlewood and Offord in the 1940s. Given a set $A$ of integer, this problem asks for an upper bound on the…
The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form $p(\ell n+\beta)\equiv 0\pmod\ell$ for the…
A brief introduction to the theory of ordered sets and lattice theory is given. To illustrate proof techniques in the theory of ordered sets, a generalization of a conjecture of Daykin and Daykin, concerning the structure of posets that can…
Until this work, the packing radius of a poset code was only known in the cases where the poset was a chain, a hierarchy, a union of disjoint chains of the same size, and for some families of codes. Our objective is to approach the general…
The logic $\mathcal L^1_\kappa$ was introduced by Shelah in [3]. In [4], he proved that for a strongly compact cardinal $\kappa$, it admits the following algebraic characterization: two structures are $\mathcal L^1_\kappa$-equivalent if and…
In this paper, we investigate the notion of partition of a finite partially ordered set (poset, for short). We will define three different notions of partition of a poset, namely, monotone, regular, and open partition. For each of these…
In a recent work, Andrews gave analytic proofs of two conjectures concerning some variations of two combinatorial identities between partitions of a positive integer into odd parts and partitions into distinct parts discovered by Beck.…
The number partition problem is a well-known problem, which is one of 21 Karp's NP-complete problems \cite{karp}. The partition function is a boolean function that is equivalent to the number partition problem with number range restricted.…
Olver and Rosenau studied group-invariant solutions of (generally nonlinear) partial differential equations through the imposition of a side condition. We apply a similar idea to the special case of finite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems,…
A `whole-part' theory is developed for a set of finite quantum systems $\Sigma (n)$ with variables in ${\mathbb Z}(n)$. The partial order `subsystem' is defined, by embedding various attributes of the system $\Sigma (m)$ (quantum states,…
We recently introduced the recursive divisor function $\kappa_x(n)$, a recursive analogue of the usual divisor function. Here we calculate its Dirichlet series, which is ${\zeta(s-x)}/(2 - \zeta(s))$. We show that $\kappa_x(n)$ is related…
Glaisher's theorem states that the number of partitions of $n$ into parts which repeat at most $m-1$ times is equal to the number of partitions of $n$ into parts which are not divisible by $m$. The $m=2$ case is Euler's famous partition…
Rough set theory is a useful tool to deal with uncertain, granular and incomplete knowledge in information systems. And it is based on equivalence relations or partitions. Matroid theory is a structure that generalizes linear independence…
We introduce the notion of $K$-ideals associated with Kuratowski partitions and we prove that each $\kappa$-complete ideal on a measurable cardinal $\kappa$ can be represented as a $K$-ideal. Moreover, we show some results concerning…
Recently, Kaur and Rana introduced the partition function denoted by $\rho(n)$, where the largest part $\lambda$ appears exactly once, and the remaining parts constitute a partition of $\lambda$. In this paper, we establish new generating…
A set partition $\sigma$ of $[n]=\{1,\cdots ,n\}$ contains another set partition $\omega$ if a standardized restriction of $\sigma$ to a subset $S\subseteq[n]$ is equivalent to $\omega$. Otherwise, $\sigma$ avoids $\omega$. Sagan and Goyt…
In a work of 1995, Alladi, Andrews, and Gordon provided a generalization of the two Capparelli identities involving certain classes of integer partitions. Inspired by that contribution, in particular as regards the general setting and the…
In this article we investigate the dual-shattering cardinal H, the dual-splitting cardinal S and the dual-reaping cardinal R, which are dualizations of the well-known cardinals h (the shattering cardinal, also known as the distributivity…
Recently, Schneider and Schneider defined a new class of partitions called sequentially congruent partitions, in which each part is congruent to the next part modulo its index, and they proved two partition bijections involving these…
