This paper considers three different partition relations from partition calculus, two of which are pair relations and one of which is a triple relation. An examination of the first partition relation and the ramification argument used to…

This paper will primarily present a method of proving generating function identities for partitions from linked partition ideals. The method we introduce is built on a conjecture by George Andrews and that those generating functions satisfy…

We construct an easily described family of partitions of the positive integers into $n$ disjoint sets with essentially the same structure for every $n \geq 2$. In a special case, it interpolates between the Beatty $\frac{1}{\phi} +…

We give a new simple construction for known binary quadratic symmetric bent and almost bent functions. In particular, for even number of variables, they are self-dual and anti-self-dual quadratic bent functions, respectively, which are not…

A q-series with nonnegative power series coefficients is called positive. The partition statistics BG-rank is defined as an alternating sum of parities of parts of a partition. It is known that the generating function for the number of…

We construct a finitely presented group with undecidable word problem and with Dehn function bounded by a quadratic function on an infinite set of positive integers.

MacMahon showed that the generating function for partitions into at most $k$ parts can be decomposed into a partial fractions-type sum indexed by the partitions of $k$. In this present work, a generalization of MacMahon's result is given,…

Recently, Chan and Wang (Fractional powers of the generating function for the partition function. Acta Arith. 187(1), 59--80 (2019)) studied the fractional powers of the generating function for the partition function and found several…

We revisit games in partition function form, i.e. cooperative games where the payoff of a coalition depends on the partition of the entire set of players. We assume that each coalition computes its worth having probabilistic beliefs over…

We introduce several spt-type functions that arise from Bailey pairs. We prove simple Ramanujan type congruences for these functions which can be explained by a spt-crank-type function. The spt-crank-type functions are constructed by adding…

We prove and conjecture some new symmetric function identities, which equate the generating series of 1. Plane partitions, subject to certain restrictions and weightings, and 2. Alternating sign matrices, subject to certain symmetry…

We study the combinatorics of two classes of basic hypergeometric series. We first show that these series are the generating functions for certain overpartition pairs defined by frequency conditions on the parts. We then show that when…

We prove astonishing identities generated by compositions of positive integers. In passing, we obtain two new identities for Stirling numbers of the first kind. In the two last sections we clarify an algebraic sense of these identities and…

We study the enumeration of set partitions, according to their length, number of parts, cyclic type, and genus. We introduce genus-dependent Bell, Stirling numbers, and Fa\`a di Bruno coefficients. Besides attempting to summarize what is…

We exploit transformations relating generalized $q$-series, infinite products, sums over integer partitions, and continued fractions, to find partition-theoretic formulas to compute the values of constants such as $\pi$, and to connect sums…

In this paper we set up a bivariate representation of partial theta functions which not only unifies some famous identities for partial theta functions due to Andrews and Warnaar, et al. but also unveils a new characteristic of such…

A procedure is described that makes use of the generating function of characters to obtain a new generating function $H$ giving the multiplicities of each weight in all the representations of a simple Lie algebra. The way to extract from…

In this article we consider certain types of weighted generalized functions associated with nondegenerate quadratic forms. Such functions and their derivatives are used for constructing fundamental solutions of iterated ultra-hyperbolic…

We obtain a new family of relations satisfied by the partition function. In contrast with most partition relations, these involve non-trivial roots of unity. We present two proofs, one using the fact that the discriminant modular form is a…

Bosonic formulas for generating series of partitions with certain restrictions are obtained by solving a set of linear matrix q-difference equations. Some particular cases are related to combinatorial problems arising from solvable lattice…
