A partition statistic ` crank' gives combinatorial interpretations for Ramanujan's famous partition congruences. In this paper, we establish an asymptotic formula, Ramanujan type congruences, and q-series identities that the number of…
Ramanujan listed several q-series identities in his lost notebook. The most well known q-series identities are the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities which are first discovered by Rogers and then rediscovered by Ramanujan. In this paper, we…
The main result of the paper is the existence of an infinitely many families of Ramanujan-type congruences for $b_4(n)$ and $b_6(n)$ modulo primes $m \geq 2$ and $m \geq 5$, respectively. We provide new examples of congruences for $b_4(n)$…
Congruences are found modulo powers of 5, 7 and 13 for Andrews' smallest parts partition function spt(n). These congruences are reminiscent of Ramanujan's partition congruences modulo powers of 5, 7 and 11. Recently, Ono proved explicit…
We use sums over integer compositions analogous to generating functions in partition theory, to express certain partition enumeration functions as sums over compositions into parts that are $k$-gonal numbers; our proofs employ Ramanujan's…
Ramanujan's original definition of mock theta functions from 1920 involves their asymptotic behaviors at roots of unity on the boundary of the disk of convergence $|q|<1$. More recently this topic has been related by several authors,…
Let spt(n) denote the total number of appearances of smallest parts in the partitions of n. Recently, Andrews showed how spt(n) is related to the second rank moment, and proved some surprising Ramanujan-type congruences mod 5, 7 and 13. We…
Using Appell function properties we give short proofs of Ramanujan-like identities for the eighth order mock theta function $V_0(q)$ after work of Chan and Mao; Mao; and Brietzke, da Silva, and Sellars. We also present a generalization of…
This is the third and final installment in our series of papers applying the method of Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer to deduce formulas for rank differences. The study of rank differences was initiated by Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer in their…
The partition statistic $V_R$-rank is introduced to give combinatorial proofs of the Ramanujan type congruences mod 3 for certain classes of partition functions.
The partition function is known to exhibit beautiful congruences that are often proved using the theory of modular forms. In this paper, we study the extent to which these congruence results apply to the generalized Frobenius partitions…
Folsom, Kent, and Ono used the theory of modular forms modulo $\ell$ to establish remarkable ``self-similarity'' properties of the partition function and give an overarching explanation of many partition congruences. We generalize their…
Bringmann, Lovejoy, and Osburn showed that the generating functions of the spt-overpartition functions spt(n), spt1(n), spt2(n), and M2spt(n) are quasimock theta functions, and satisfy a number of simple Ramanujan-like congruences. Andrews,…
We study the generating functions for cylindric partitions with profile $(c_1,c_2,c_3)$ for all $c_1,c_2,c_3$ such that $c_1+c_2+c_3=5$. This allows us to discover and prove seven new $A_2$ Rogers-Ramanujan identities modulo $8$ with…
Andrews recently introduced k-marked Durfee symbols, which are a generalization of partitions that are connected to moments of Dyson's rank statistic. He used these connections to find identities relating their generating functions as well…
We consider a class of generating functions analogous to the generating function of the partition function and establish a bound on the primes $\ell$ for which their coefficients $c(n)$ obey congruences of the form $c(\ell n + a) \equiv 0…
We use a generalized Lambert series identity due to the first author to present q-series proofs of recent results of Imamoglu, Raum and Richter concerning recursive formulas for the coefficients of two 3rd order mock theta functions.…
The notion of cubic partitions is introduced by Hei-Chi Chan and named by Byungchan Kim in connection with Ramanujan's cubic continued fractions. Chan proved that cubic partition function has Ramanujan Type congruences modulo powers of $3$.…
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.
Let $p_2(n)$ denote the number of cubic partitions. In this paper, we shall present two new congruences modulo $11$ for $p_2(n)$. We also provide an elementary alternative proof of a congruence established by Chan. Furthermore, we will…
