Unrefinable partitions are a subset of partitions into distinct parts which satisfy an additional unrefinability property. More precisely, being an unrefinable partition means that none of the parts can be written as the sum of smaller…

We prove a lemma that is useful to get upper bounds for the number of partitions without a given subsum. From this we can deduce an improved upper bound for the number of sets represented by the (unrestricted or into unequal parts)…

A system of homogeneous linear equations with integer coefficients is partition regular if, whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured, the system has a monochromatic solution. The Finite Sums theorem provided the first example of…

We obtain partition regularity results for homogeneous quadratic equations whose parametrized solutions admit nice factorizations into linear forms over rings of integers of imaginary quadratic fields. To do so, we develop number-theoretic…

For a partition $\lambda \vdash n$, we let $\operatorname{pd}(\lambda)$, the parity difference of $\lambda$, be the number of odd parts of $\lambda$ minus the number of even parts of $\lambda$. We prove for $c_0\in\mathbb{R}$ an asymptotic…

The paper contains an exposition of part of topology using partitions of unity. The main idea is to create variants of the Tietze Extension Theorem and use them to derive classical theorems. This idea leads to a new result generalizing…

Wilf's Sixth Unsolved Problem asks for any interesting properties of the set of partitions of integers for which the (nonzero) multiplicities of the parts are all different. We refer to these as \emph{Wilf partitions}. Using $f(n)$ to…

Let A be a nonempty finite set of relatively prime positive integers, and let p_A(n) denote the number of partitions of n with parts in A. An elementary arithmetic argument is used to obtain an asymptotic formula for p_A(n).

An expansion in the number of spatial covariant derivatives is carried out to compute the $\zeta$-function regularized effective action of 2+1-dimensional fermions at finite temperature in an arbitrary non-Abelian background. The real and…

We provide, under minimal continuity assumptions, a description of \textsl{additive partition entropies}. They are real functions $I$ on the set of finite partitions that are additive on stochastically independent partitions in a given…

We study the distribution of partition parts in arithmetic progressions and find asymptotic results that capture all exponentially growing terms. This is accomplished by studying the behavior of non-modular Eisenstein series that appear in…

In this article, we introduce the notion of almost consecutive partitions. A partition is almost consecutive if every term is consecutive, with the possible exception of the smallest one. We find formulas relating to the smallest parts of…

For a fixed integer $k$, we consider the set of noncrossing partitions, where both the block sizes and the difference between adjacent elements in a block is $1\bmod k$. We show that these $k$-indivisible noncrossing partitions can be…

Recently, Chen, He, Hu and Xie considered the parity of the number of non-overlined (resp. overlined) parts of size greater than or equal to the size of the smallest overlined (resp. non-overlined) part in an overpartition. In this article,…

The parity of the partition function $p(n)$ remains strikingly mysterious. Beyond a handful of fragmentary results, essentially nothing is known about the distribution of parity. We prove a uniform result on quadratic progressions. If…
