A theorem of Andrews equates partitions in which no part is repeated more than 2k-1 times to partitions in which, if j appears at least k times, all parts less than j also do so. This paper proves the theorem bijectively, with some of the…
Noting a curious link between Andrews' even-odd crank and the Stanley rank, we adopt a combinatorial approach building on the map of conjugation and continue the study of integer partitions with parts separated by parity. Our motivation is…
We set up a combinatorial framework for inclusion-exclusion on the partitions into distinct parts to obtain an alternative generating function of partitions into distinct and non-consecutive parts. In connection with Rogers-Ramanujan…
We prove a family of partition identities which is "dual" to the family of Andrews-Gordon's identities. These identities are inspired by a correspondence between a special type of partitions and "hypergraphs" and their proof uses…
Recently, Andrews gave a detailed study of partitions with even parts below odd parts in which only the largest even part appears an odd number of times. In this paper, we provide a combinatorial proof of the generating function identity of…
Let \pi be a partition. In [2] we defined BG-rank(\pi) as an alternating sum of parities of parts. This statistic was employed to generalize and refine the famous Ramanujan modulo 5 partition congruence. Let p_j(n)(a_{t,j}(n)) denote a…
Andrews, Lewis and Lovejoy introduced the partition function $PD(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands. In a recent work, Lin studied a partition function $PD_{t}(n)$ which counts the number of tagged parts over…
Franklin's identity generalizes Euler's identity and states that the number of partitions of $n$ with $j$ different parts divisible by $r$ equals the number of partitions of $n$ with $j$ repeated parts. In this article, we give a refinement…
Let $\mathcal O_r(n)$ be the set of $r$-regular partitions of $n$, $\mathcal D_r(n)$ the set of partitions of $n$ with parts repeated at most $r-1$ times, $\mathcal O_{1,r}(n)$ the set of partitions with exactly one part (possibly repeated)…
We use the $q$-binomial theorem, the $q$-Gauss sum, and the ${}_2\phi_1 \rightarrow {}_2\phi_2$ transformation of Jackson to discover and prove many new weighted partition identities. These identities involve unrestricted partitions,…
The BG-rank BG($\pi$) of an integer partition $\pi$ is defined as $$\text{BG}(\pi) := i-j$$ where $i$ is the number of odd-indexed odd parts and $j$ is the number of even-indexed odd parts of $\pi$. In a recent work, Fu and Tang ask for a…
In this article, we first investigate the partitions whose parts are congruent to $a$ or $b$ modulo $k$ with the aid of separable integer partition classes with modulus $k$ introduced by Andrews. Then, we introduce the…
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…
Motivated by a recent paper of Straub, we study the distribution of integer partitions according to the length of their largest hook, instead of the usual statistic, namely the size of the partitions. We refine Straub's analogue of Euler's…
We generalise Euler's partition theorem involving odd parts and different parts for all moduli and provide new companions to Rogers-Ramanujan- Andrews-Gordon identities related to this theorem.
The main result of this paper is a bijective proof showing that the generating function for partitions with bounded differences between largest and smallest part is a rational function. This result is similar to the closely related case of…
Using Lie theory, Stefano Capparelli conjectured an interesting Rogers-Ramanujan type partition identity in his 1988 Rutgers Ph.D. thesis. The first proof was given by George Andrews, using combinatorial methods. Later, Capparelli was able…
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…
A triangular partition is a partition whose Ferrers diagram can be separated from its complement (as a subset of $\mathbb{N}^2$) by a straight line. Having their origins in combinatorial number theory and computer vision, triangular…
An approximate formula for the partitions of Goldbach's Conjecture is derived using Prime Number Theorem and a heuristic probabilistic approach. A strong form of Goldbach's conjecture follows in the form of a lower bounding function for the…
