Let $\overline{p}(n)$ denote the overpartition function. Liu and Zhang showed that $\overline{p}(a) \overline{p}(b)>\overline{p}(a+b)$ for all integers $a,b>1$ by using an analytic result of Engle. We offer in this paper a combinatorial…

Let $M_0(n)$ (resp. $M_1(n)$) denote the number of partitions of $n$ with even (reps. odd) crank. Choi, Kang and Lovejoy established an asymptotic formula for $M_0(n)-M_1(n)$. By utilizing this formula with the explicit bound, we show that…

Let $\mathcal{A}=\left(a_i\right)_{i=1}^\infty$ be a weakly increasing sequence of positive integers and let $k$ be a fixed positive integer. For an arbitrary integer $n$, the restricted partition $p_\mathcal{A}(n,k)$ enumerates all the…

Two new expansions for partial sums of Gauss' triangular and square numbers series are given. As a consequence, we derive a family of inequalities for the overpartition function $\bar{p}(n)$ and for the partition function $p_1(n)$ counting…

In this paper we study restricted overpartitions and concave compositions. In several cases the resulting generating functions involve simultaneously modular forms, mock theta functions, mock Maass theta functions, and false theta…

We study $\nu_k(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ part sizes, and find numerous arithmetic progressions where $\nu_2$ and $\nu_3$ take on values divisible by 2 and 4. Expanding earlier work, we show $\nu_2(An+B) \equiv 0…

Let $A(p,n,k)$ be the number of $p$-tuples of commuting permutations of $n$ elements whose permutation action results in exactly $k$ orbits or connected components. We formulate the conjecture that, for every fixed $p$ and $n$, the…

Let $\overline{\mathrm{spt}}k(n)$ denote the number of overpartitions of $n$ where the smallest non-overlined part, say $s(\pi)$, appears $k$ times and every overlined part is bigger than $s(\pi)$. Let $\overline{\mathrm{spt}}k_o(n)$ denote…

We study the distribution of partition parts in arithmetic progressions and find asymptotic results that capture all exponentially growing terms. This is accomplished by studying the behavior of non-modular Eisenstein series that appear in…

A new approach to the problem of finding the asymptotical behaviour of large orders of semiclassical expansion is suggested. Asymptotics of high orders not only for eigenvalues, but also for eigenfunctions, are constructed. Thus, one can…

Let $\mathcal{A}=(a_i)_{i=1}^\infty$ be a non-decreasing sequence of positive integers and let $k\in\mathbb{N}_+$ be fixed. The function $p_\mathcal{A}(n,k)$ counts the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in the multiset…

Here we examine the number of ways to partition an integer $n$ into $k$th powers when $n$ is large. Simplified proofs of some asymptotic results of Wright are given using the saddle-point method, including exact formulas for the expansion…

In 1918, Hardy and Ramanujan made a breakthrough by developing the circle method to deduce an asymptotic formula for the partition function $p(n)$, which was later refined by Rademacher in 1937 to produce an absolutely convergent series…

In the $1970$s, Nicolas proved that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for $ n > 25$. In \cite{HNT21}, a precise conjecture on the log-concavity for the plane partition function $\func{pp}(n)$ for $n >11$ was stated. This was…
