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.

In 2022, Broudy and Lovejoy extensively studied the function $S(n)$ which counts the number of overpartitions of \emph{Schur-type}. In particular, they proved a number of congruences satisfied by $S(n)$ modulo $2$, $4$, and $5$. In this…

In this article we exhibit new explicit families of congruences for the overpartition function, making effective the existence results given previously by Treneer. We give infinite families of congruences modulo $m$ for $m = 5, 7, 11$, and…

Ramanujan proved three famous congruences for the partition function modulo 5, 7, and 11. The first author and Boylan proved that these congruences are the only ones of this type. In 1984 Andrews introduced the $m$-colored Frobenius…

We study the generating functions for cylindric partitions with profile $(c_1,c_2,c_3)$ for all $c_1,c_2,c_3$ such that $c_1+c_2+c_3=5$. This allows us to discover and prove seven new $A_2$ Rogers-Ramanujan identities modulo $8$ with…

We present two new Ramanujan-type congruences modulo 5 for overpartition. We also give an affirmative answer to a conjecture of Dou and Lin, which includes four congruences modulo 25 for overpartition.

Ramanujan famously found congruences for the partition function like p(5n+4) = 0 modulo 5. We provide a method to find all simple congruences of this type in the coefficients of the inverse of a modular form on Gamma_{1}(4) which is…

The enumeration $d_k(n)$ of $k$-elongated plane partition diamonds has emerged as a generalization of the classical integer partition function $p(n)$. Congruences for $d_k(n)$ modulo certain powers of primes have been proven via elementary…

In $1984$, Andrews introduced the family of partition functions $c\phi_k(n)$, which enumerate generalized Frobenius partitions of $n$ with $k$ colors. In $2016$, Gu, Wang, and Xia established several congruences for $c\phi_6(n)$ and…
