We use a variation of the Circle Method, along with the Saddle Point Method, to obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of partitions of a number n into integers which are sums of two squares. Unlike previous work on partitions into…

Let $\alpha>1$ be an irrational number. We establish asymptotic formulas for the number of partitions of $n$ into summands and distinct summands, chosen from the Beatty sequence $(\lfloor\alpha m\rfloor)_{m\in\mathbb{N}}$. This improves…

For stacked simplicial complexes, (special subclasses of such are: trees, triangulations of polygons, stacked polytopes), we give an explicit bijection between partitions of facets (for trees: edges), and partitions of vertices into…

We write $S_{\leq n}(A)$ and $\Part_{\fin}(A)$ for the set of permutations with at most $n$ non-fixed points, where $n$ is a natural number, and the set of partitions whose members are finite, respectively, of a set $A$. Among our results,…

In a recent paper (Tran et al., Ann.Phys.311(2004)204), some asymptotic number theoretical results on the partitioning of an integer were derived exploiting its connection to the quantum density of states of a many-particle system. We…

Given a set A of non-negative integers and a set B of positive integers,we are interested in computing all sets C (of positive integers) that are minimal in the family of sets K (of positive integers) such that (i) K contains no elements…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the maximal multiplicity $M_n=M_n(\sigma)$ of the blocks in a set partition of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$, assuming that $\sigma$ is chosen uniformly at random from the set of all such partitions. Let $W=W(n)$…

Let $F_n(x)$ be the partition polynomial $\sum_{k=1}^n p_k(n) x^k$ where $p_k(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$ with $k$ parts. We emphasize the computational experiments using degrees up to $70,000$ to discover the asymptotics of…

The fragmentation processes of exchangeable partitions have already been studied by several authors. In this paper, we examine rather fragmentation of exchangeable compositions, that means partitions of $\mathbb{N}$ where the order of the…

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…

The notion of containment and avoidance provides a natural partial ordering on set partitions. Work of Sagan and of Goyt has led to enumerative results in avoidance classes of set partitions, which were refined by Dahlberg et al. through…

An ordered partition of [n]:={1,2,..., n} is a sequence of its disjoint subsets whose union is [n]. The number of ordered partitions of [n] with k blocks is k!S(n,k), where S(n,k) is the Stirling number of second kind. In this paper we…

This article presents uniform random generators of plane partitions according to the size (the number of cubes in the 3D interpretation). Combining a bijection of Pak with the method of Boltzmann sampling, we obtain random samplers that are…

In this paper we prove that the number of partitions into squares with an even number of parts is asymptotically equal to that of partitions into squares with an odd number of parts. We further show that, for $ n $ large enough, the two…

Given a sequence of $N$ positive real numbers $\{a_1,a_2,..., a_N \}$, the number partitioning problem consists of partitioning them into two sets such that the absolute value of the difference of the sums of $a_j$ over the two sets is…

In this paper, we discuss P(n), the number of ways in which a given integer n may be written as a sum of primes. In particular, an asymptotic form P_as(n) valid for n towards infinity is obtained analytically using standard techniques of…

We consider $m$-divisible non-crossing partitions of $\{1,2,\ldots,mn\}$ with the property that for some $t\leq n$ no block contains more than one of the first $t$ integers. We give a closed formula for the number of multi-chains of such…

Large sets of combinatorial designs has always been a fascinating topic in design theory. These designs form a partition of the whole space into combinatorial designs with the same parameters. In particular, a large set of block designs,…

A partition on [n] has an m-nesting if there exists i_1 < i_2 < ... < i_m < j_m < j_{m-1} < ... < j_1, where i_l and j_l are in the same block for all 1 <= l <= m. We use generating trees to construct the class of partitions with no…

In this paper we find exact formulas for the numbers of partitions and compositions of an element into $m$ parts over a finite field, i.e. we find the number of nonzero solutions of the equation $x_1+x_2+...+x_m=z$ over a finite field when…
