The number of parts in the partitions (resp. distinct partitions) of $n$ with parts from a set were considered. Its generating functions were obtained. Consequently, we derive several recurrence identities for the following functions: the…

Let $\mathcal{A}=(a_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}_+}$ be a sequence of positive integers. Let $p_\mathcal{A}(n,k)$ denote the number of multi-color partitions of $n$ into parts in $\{a_1,\ldots,a_k\}$. We examine several arithmetic properties of the…

We give a detailed analysis of the proportion of elements in the symmetric group on $n$ points whose order divides $m$, for $n$ sufficiently large and $m \ge n$ with $m = O(n)$.

In this paper, we first obtain some analogues of a formula of Zagier (1995) and Stanley (2011). For instance, we prove that the number of pairs of $n$-cycles whose product has $k$ cycles and has $m$ given elements contained in distinct…

We say that $M$ and $S$ form a \textsl{splitting} of $G$ if every nonzero element $g$ of $G$ has a unique representation of the form $g=ms$ with $m\in M$ and $s\in S$, while $0$ has no such representation. The splitting is called {\it…

A group is called $(m,n)$-bicyclic if it can be expressed as a product of two cyclic subgroups of orders $m$ and $n$, respectively. The classification and characterization of finite bicyclic groups have long been important problems in group…

The cycling operation is a special kind of conjugation that can be applied to elements in Artin's braid groups, in order to reduce their length. It is a key ingredient of the usual solutions to the conjugacy problem in braid groups. In…

Schmidt's theorem is significantly generalized, to partitions in which periodic but otherwise arbitrary subsets of parts are counted or uncounted. The identification of such sets of partitions with colored partitions satisfying certain…

In this paper, we compute explicitly the $q$-dimensions of highest weight crystals modulo $q^n-1$ for a quantum group of arbitrary finite type under certain assumption, and interpret the modulo computations in terms of the cyclic sieving…

We characterize the algebraic structure of semi-direct product of cyclic groups, $\Z_{N}\rtimes\Z_{p}$, where $p$ is an odd prime number which does not divide $q-1$ for any prime factor $q$ of $N$, and provide a polynomial-time quantum…

A necklace can be considered as a cyclic list of $n$ red and $n$ blue beads in an arbitrary order, and the goal is to fold it into two and find a large cross-free matching of pairs of beads of different colors. We give a counterexample for…

Glaisher's theorem states that the number of partitions of $n$ into parts which repeat at most $m-1$ times is equal to the number of partitions of $n$ into parts which are not divisible by $m$. The $m=2$ case is Euler's famous partition…

The number of partitions of $n$ wherein odd parts are distinct and even parts are unrestricted, often denoted by $pod(n)$. In this paper, we provide linear recurrence relations for $pod(n)$, and the connections of $pod(n)$ with other…

We prove that the number of partitions of the hypercube ${\bf Z}_q^n$ into $q^m$ subcubes of dimension $n-m$ each for fixed $q$, $m$ and growing $n$ is asymptotically equal to $n^{(q^m-1)/(q-1)}$. For the proof, we introduce the operation…
