We obtain congruences for the number a(n) of cubic partitions using modular forms. The notion of cubic partitions is introduced by Chan and named by Kim in connection with Ramanujan's cubic continued fractions. Chan has shown that a(n) has…
In this short note, we prove several new congruences for the overcubic partition triples function, using both elementary techniques and the theory of modular forms. These extend the recent list of such congruences given by Nayaka,…
Recently, Andrews, Bhattacharjee and Dastidar introduced the concept of $k$-measure of an integer partition, and proved a surprising identity that the number of partitions of $n$ which have $2$-measure $m$ is equal to the number of…
A theorem of Andrews equates partitions in which no part is repeated more than 2k-1 times to partitions in which, if j appears at least k times, all parts less than j also do so. This paper proves the theorem bijectively, with some of the…
In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…
It is well known that, whenever $k$ divides $n$, the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into disjoint perfect matchings. Equivalently, the set of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set can be partitioned into parallel…
Let $NT(m, k, n)$ denote the total number of parts in the partitions of n with rank congruent to m modulo k. Andrews proved Beck's conjecture on congruences for $NT(m, k, n)$ modulo 5 and 7. Generalizing Andrews'results, Chern obtain…
Recently, Lin introduced two new partition functions PD$_t(n)$ and PDO$_t(n)$, which count the total number of tagged parts over all partitions of $n$ with designated summands and the total number of tagged parts over all partitions of $n$…
Integer partitions have long been of interest to number theorists, perhaps most notably Ramanujan, and are related to many areas of mathematics including combinatorics, modular forms, representation theory, analysis, and mathematical…
We study a curious class of partitions, the parts of which obey an exceedingly strict congruence condition we refer to as "sequential congruence": the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part…
Noting a curious link between Andrews' even-odd crank and the Stanley rank, we adopt a combinatorial approach building on the map of conjugation and continue the study of integer partitions with parts separated by parity. Our motivation is…
We answer an open question in the theory of transducer degrees initially posed in [1] on the existence of a diamond structure in the transducer hierarchy. Transducer degrees are the equivalence classes formed by word transformations which…
In 2002, Andrews, Lewis, and Lovejoy introduced the combinatorial objects which they called \emph{partitions with designated summands}. These are built by taking unrestricted integer partitions and designating exactly one of each occurrence…
George Andrews and Peter Paule have recently conjectured an infinite family of congruences modulo powers of 3 for the 2-elongated plane partition function $d_2(n)$. This congruence family appears difficult to prove by classical methods. We…
Recent work of Garvan, Sellers, Smoot, and others has made connections between infinite families of congruences for various partition functions. Here, we apply this approach to families of congruences for PED and POD partitions and find…
We develop a theory of polynomials and, in particular, an analog of the theory of Legendre orthogonal polynomials on the bubble-diamond fractals, a class of fractal sets that can be viewed as the completion of a limit of a sequence of…
In a recent study of sign-balanced, labelled posets Stanley [13], introduced a new integral partition statistic srank(pi) = O(pi) - O(pi'), where O(pi) denotes the number of odd parts of the partition pi and pi' the conjugate of pi. In [1]…
We prove new formulas and congruences for $p(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ parts and $q(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ distinct parts. Also, we give lower and upper bounds for the density of the set…
We consider the number of the $6$-regular partitions of $n$, $b_6(n)$, and give infinite families of congruences modulo $3$ (in arithmetic progression) for $b_6(n)$. We also consider the number of the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts…
In 2012, Peter Paule and Cristian-Silviu Radu proved an infinite family of Ramanujan type congruences for $2$-colored Frobenius partitions $c\phi_2$ introduced by George Andrews. Recently, Frank Garvan, James Sellers and Nicolas Smoot…
