We study some combinatorial properties of higher-dimensional partitions which generalize plane partitions. We present a natural bijection between $d$-dimensional partitions and $d$-dimensional arrays of nonnegative integers. This bijection…

We consider a refinement of the partition function of graph homomorphisms and present a quasi-polynomial algorithm to compute it in a certain domain. As a corollary, we obtain quasi-polynomial algorithms for computing partition functions…

In a paper published in 2023, Wagner introduced and studied Jacobi forms with complex multiplication, and gave several applications. One such application was in constructing a new doubly-infinite family of partition-theoretic objects,…

Extensions of a set partition obtained by imposing bounds on the size of the parts and the coloring of some of the elements are examined. Combinatorial properties and the generating functions of some counting sequences associated with these…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ colored points. We develop efficient data structures that store $P$ and can answer chromatic $k$-nearest neighbor ($k$-NN) queries. Such a query consists of a query point $q$ and a number $k$, and asks for the color…

The partition functions $P(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitions of $n$ into exactly $m$ parts with each part at most $p$, and $Q(n,m,p)$, the number of integer partitons of $n$ into exactly $m$ distinct parts with each part at most…

Very recently, Thejitha, Sellers, and Fathima defined the function $a_{r,s}(n)$, which enumerates the number of multicolored partitions of $n$, wherein both even parts and odd parts may appear in one of $r$-colors and $s$-colors,…

A conjecture of Gy\'{a}rf\'{a}s and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy says that in every $2$-coloring of the edges of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph $K_n^k$, there are two disjoint monochromatic loose paths of distinct colors such that they cover all…

Let $\lambda$ be a partition, viewed as a Young diagram. We define the hook difference of a cell of $\lambda$ to be the difference of its leg and arm lengths. Define $h_{1,1}(\lambda)$ to be the number of cells of $\lambda$ with hook…

This paper builds on the research initiated by Boyadzhiev, but introduces generalized harmonic numbers, \[ H_n(\alpha)= \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{\alpha^{k}}{k}, \] which enable the derivation of new identities as well as the reformulation of…

We study approximations of the partition function of dense graphical models. Partition functions of graphical models play a fundamental role is statistical physics, in statistics and in machine learning. Two of the main methods for…

In the paper, we give partition-theoretic results for the coefficients of some mock theta functions and prove their congruence properties. Some recurrence relations connecting the coefficients of the mock theta functions with certain…

We prove a Macdonald polynomial analogue of the celebrated Nekrasov-Okounkov hook-length formula from the theory of random partitions. As an application we obtain a proof of one of the main conjectures of Hausel and Rodriguez-Villegas from…

Inequalities are important features in the context of sequences of numbers and polynomials. The Bessenrodt--Ono inequality for partition numbers and Nekrasov--Okounkov polynomials has only recently been discovered. In this paper we study…

We investigate the complexity of generalizations of colourings (acyclic colourings, $(k,\ell)$-colourings, homomorphisms, and matrix partitions), for the class of transitive digraphs. Even though transitive digraphs are nicely structured,…

Alternative novel measures of the distance between any two partitions of a n-set are proposed and compared, together with a main existing one, namely 'partition-distance' D(.,.). The comparison achieves by checking their restriction to…

We study $q$-analogues of $k$-Fibonacci numbers that arise from weighted tilings of an $n\times1$ board with tiles of length at most $k$. The weights on our tilings arise naturally out of distributions of permutations statistics and set…

For $r:=(r_1,\dots,r_k)$, an $r$-factorization of the complete $\lambda$-fold $h$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $\lambda K_n^h$ is a partition of (the edges of) $\lambda K_n^h$ into $F_1,\dots, F_k$ such that for $i=1,\dots,k$, $F_i$ is…

A generalized crank ($k$-crank) for $k$-colored partitions is introduced. Following the work of Andrews-Lewis and Ji-Zhao, we derive two results for this newly defined $k$-crank. Namely, we first obtain some inequalities between the…

Relations involving the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions $R(q),$ $R(q^3 ),$ and $R(q^4)$ are used to find new generating functions and congruences modulo 5 and 25 for 3-core, 4-core, 4-regular, and colored partition functions.
