In this paper, we investigate two methods to express the natural powers of $2$ as sums over integer partitions. First we consider a formula by N. J. Fine that allows us to express a binomial coefficient in terms of multinomial coefficients…

We develop a new closed-form arithmetic and recursive formula for the partition function and a generalization of Andrews' smallest parts (spt) function. Using the inclusion-exclusion principle, we additionally develop a formula for the…

Euler showed that the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into odd parts. This theorem was generalized by Glaisher and further by Franklin. Recently, Beck made three conjectures on…

In this paper, we present a generalization of one of the theorems in [G. E. Andrews, Partitions with parts separated by parity, \textit{Annals of Combinatorics} \textbf{23}(2019), 241 - 248], and give its bijective proof. Further variations…

Dyson's rank function and the Andrews--Garvan crank function famously give combinatorial witnesses for Ramanujan's partition function congruences modulo 5, 7, and 11. While these functions can be used to show that the corresponding sets of…

We develop the theory of weighted P-partitions, which generalises the theory of P-partitions from labelled posets to weighted labelled posets. We define the related generating functions in the natural way and compute their product,…

Let $a_k(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ wherein even parts come in only one color, while the odd parts may be ``colored" with one of $k$ colors, for fixed $k$. In this note, we find some congruences for $a_k(n)$ in the spirit of…

Given an integer partition of $n$ into distinct parts, the sum of the reciprocal parts is an example of an egyptian fraction. We study this statistic under the uniform measure on distinct parts partitions of $n$ and prove that, as $n \to…

The famous partition theorem of Euler states that partitions of $n$ into distinct parts are equinumerous with partitions of $n$ into odd parts. Another famous partition theorem due to MacMahon states that the number of partitions of $n$…

The purpose of this paper is to find an explicit formula and asymptotic estimate for the total number of sum of weighted records over set partitions of $[n]$ in terms of Bell numbers. For that we study the generating function for the number…

Buryak, Feigin and Nakajima computed a generating function for a family of partition statistics by using the geometry of the $Z/cZ$ fixed point sets in the Hilbert scheme of points on $C^2$. Loehr and Warrington had already shown how a…
