We study the divisibility properties of the partition function associated with the eighth order mock theta function $V_0(q)$, introduced by Gordon and McIntosh. We obtain congruences modulo powers of 2 for certain coefficients of the…

We present new proofs and generalizations of unimodality of the q-binomial coefficients \binom{n}{k}_q as polynomials in q. We use an algebraic approach by interpreting the differences between numbers of certain partitions as Kronecker…

We study a bijective map from integer partitions to the prime factorizations of integers that we call the "supernorm" of a partition, in which the multiplicities of the parts of partitions are mapped to the multiplicities of prime factors…

The study of Ramanujan-type congruences for functions specific to additive number theory has a long and rich history. Motivated by recent connections between divisor sums and overpartitions via congruences in arithmetic progressions, we…

The enumeration $d_k(n)$ of $k$-elongated plane partition diamonds has emerged as a generalization of the classical integer partition function $p(n)$. We have discovered an infinite congruence family for $d_5(n)$ modulo powers of 5.…

In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…

In this work, we investigate the arithmetic properties of $p_{1,5^k}(n)$, which counts 2-color partitions of $n$ where one of the colors appears only in parts that are multiples of $5^k$. By constructing generating functions for…

Let $ B_{\ell}(n)$ denote the number of $\ell$-regular bipartitions of $n.$ In this article, we prove that $ B_{\ell}(n)$ is always almost divisible by $p_i^j$ if $p_i^{2a_i}\geq \ell,$ where $j$ is a fixed positive integer and…

Let $n$ and $t$ be positive integers with $t\geq 2$. Let $R_t(n)$ be the number of $t$-regular partitions of $n$. A class of functions, denoted $\tau_k(n)$, is defined as follows:…

We study functions related to the classical Brjuno function, namely $k$-Brjuno functions and the Wilton function. Both appear in the study of boundary regularity properties of (quasi) modular forms and their integrals. We consider various…

It is widely believed that the parity of the partition function $p(n)$ is ``random.'' Contrary to this expectation, in this note we prove the existence of infinitely many congruence relations modulo 4 among its values. For each square-free…

We address three questions posed by Bibak \cite{KB20}, and generalize some results of Bibak, Lehmer and K G Ramanathan on solutions of linear congruences $\sum_{i=1}^k a_i x_i \equiv b \Mod{n}$. In particular, we obtain explicit expressions…

We prove that for a positive integer $k$ the primes in certain kinds of intervals can not distribute too 'uniformly' among the reduced residue classes modulo $k$. Hereby, we prove a generalization of a conjecture of Recaman and establish…

Recently Lachterman, Schayer, and Younger published an elegant proof of the Ramanujan congruences for the partition function $p(n)$. Their proof uses only the classical theory of modular forms as well as a beautiful result of Choie, Kohnen,…

Dyson's rank function and the Andrews--Garvan crank function famously give combinatorial witnesses for Ramanujan's partition function congruences modulo 5, 7, and 11. While these functions can be used to show that the corresponding sets of…
