Numerous congruences for partitions with designated summands have been proven since first being introduced and studied by Andrews, Lewis, and Lovejoy. This paper explicitly characterizes the number of partitions with designated summands…

In 2017, Keith presented a comprehensive survey on integer partitions into parts that are simultaneously regular, distinct, and/or flat. Recently, the authors initiated a study of partitions into parts that are simultaneously regular and…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…

The number of partitions of n into parts divisible by a or b equals the number of partitions of n in which each part and each difference of two parts is expressible as a non-negative integer combination of a or b. This generalizes…
