For a set of nonnegative integers $S$ let $R_{S}(n)$ denote the number of unordered representations of the integer $n$ as the sum of two different terms from $S$. In this paper we focus on partitions of the natural numbers into two sets…
The generating function for $p_N(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ into at most $N$ parts, may be written as a product of $N$ factors. We find the behavior of coefficients in the partial fraction decomposition of this product as $N \to…
The derivation of the Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher formula for the number of partitions of $n$ is reviewed. Next, the steps for finding analogous formulas for certain restricted classes of partitions or overpartiitons is examined, bearing in…
We derive a combinatorial multisum expression for the number $D(n,k)$ of partitions of $n$ with Durfee square of order $k$. An immediate corollary is therefore a combinatorial formula for $p(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$. We then…

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…
Let $p(n)$ be the number of partition of a positive integer $n$. We derive a new identity for complete Bell polynomials based on a generating function of $p(7n+5)$ given by Ramanujan.
For primes $\ell$ and nonnegative integers $a$, we study the partition functions $$p_\ell(a;n):= \#\{\lambda \vdash n : \text{ord}_\ell(H(\lambda))=a\},$$ where $H(\lambda)$ denotes the product of hook lengths of a partition $\lambda$.…
We prove that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for all $n>25$. We then extend the results to resolve two related conjectures by Chen. The proofs are based on Lehmer's estimates on the remainders of the Hardy--Ramanujan and the…
In this paper we obtain asymptotic formulas for the Fourier coefficients of an infinite family of crank generating functions. Moreover we use this result to show that the crank obeys certain inequalities. This implies that the crank can not…
Let $\mathscr{S}$ denote the set of integer partitions into parts that differ by at least $3$, with the added constraint that no two consecutive multiples of $3$ occur as parts. We derive trivariate generating functions of Andrews--Gordon…
Recently Lachterman, Schayer, and Younger published an elegant proof of the Ramanujan congruences for the partition function $p(n)$. Their proof uses only the classical theory of modular forms as well as a beautiful result of Choie, Kohnen,…
Let $A\subset \N_{+}$ and by $P_{A}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into parts from the set $A$. The aim of this paper is to prove several result concerning the existence of integer solutions of Diophantine equations…
Define a "nuclear partition" to be an integer partition with no part equal to one. In this study we prove a simple formula to compute the partition function $p(n)$ by counting only the nuclear partitions of $n$, a vanishingly small subset…
For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…
In 1997, B\'aez-Duarte gave a probabilistic proof of the asymptotic formula for the partition function, which had originally been proved by Hardy-Ramanujan. Based on the probabilistic approach, this paper proves an asymptotic formula for…

We study the number $P(n)$ of partitions of an integer $n$ into sums of distinct squares and derive an integral representation of the function $P(n)$. Using semi-classical and quantum statistical methods, we determine its asymptotic average…
Let A and M be nonempty sets of positive integers. A partition of the positive integer n with parts in A and multiplicities in M is a representation of n in the form n = \sum_{a\in A} m_a a, where m_a is in M U {0} for all a in A, and m_a…
