In this paper, we suggest a lower and an upper bound for the Generalized Fibonacci-p-Sequence, for different values of p. The Fibonacci-p-Sequence is a generalization of the Classical Fibonacci Sequence. We first show that the ratio of two…

For $x\ge0$ let $\pi(x)$ be the number of primes not exceeding $x$. The asymptotic behaviors of the prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ and the $n$-th prime $p_n$ have been studied intensively in analytic number theory. Surprisingly, we find…

We consider the number of various partitions of $n$ with parts separated by parity and prove combinatorially several inequalities between these numbers. For example, we show that for $n\geq 5$ we have $p_{od}^{eu}(n)<p_{ed}^{ou}(n)$, where…

The 2-adic valuation of an integer n which is the exponent of the highest power of 2 that divides n. In this paper, we give representations of certain restricted partition functions in terms of 2-adic valuation.

We will study the asymptotic behavior of summation functions of a natural argument, including the asymptotic behavior of summation functions of a prime argument in the paper. A general formula is obtained for determining the asymptotic…

We establish a recursive relation for the bipartition number $p_2(n)$ which might be regarded as an analogue of Euler's recursive relation for the partition number $p(n)$. Two proofs of the main result are proved in this article. The first…

In this article, we study the arithmetic properties of the partition function $p_8(n)$, the number of 8-colour partitions of $n$. We prove several Ramanujan type congruences modulo higher powers of 2 for the function $p_8(n)$ by finding…

Let $p$ be prime, and let $p_{[1,p]}(n)$ denote the function whose generating function is $\prod (1-q^n)^{-1}(1 - q^{pn})^{-1}$. This function and its generalizations $p_{[c^{\ell}, d^m]}(n)$ are the subject of study in several recent…

The following magic trick is at the center of this paper. While the audience writes the first ten terms of a Fibonacci-like sequence (the sequence following the same recursion as the Fibonacci sequence), the magician calculates the sum of…

We show that for the classical Fibonacci sequence (Fn) and the Lucas sequence (Ln) the following identity holds for every integer n >= 2: (n-1)Fn equals the sum from k=1 to n-1 of Lk multiplied by F(n-k). Equivalently, this gives a…

We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…

For a subset $\mathcal A\subset \mathbb N$, let $p_{\mathcal A}(n)$ denote the restricted partition function which counts partitions of $n$ with all parts lying in $\mathcal A$. In this paper, we use a variation of the Hardy-Littlewood…

In 2019, Andrews investigated integer partitions in which all parts of a given parity are smaller than those of the opposite parity and introduced eight partition functions based on the parity of the smaller parts and parts of a given…

The generating function for $p_N(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ into at most $N$ parts, may be written as a product of $N$ factors. In part I, we studied the behavior of coefficients in the partial fraction decomposition of this…

By jagged partitions we refer to an ordered collection of non-negative integers $(n_1,n_2,..., n_m)$ with $n_m\geq p$ for some positive integer $p$, further subject to some weakly decreasing conditions that prevent them for being genuine…

We show that the $p$-adic valuation of the sequence of Fibonacci numbers is a $p$-regular sequence for every prime $p$. For $p \neq 2, 5$, we determine that the rank of this sequence is $\alpha(p) + 1$, where $\alpha(m)$ is the restricted…

In part 1 of this paper some linear weighted generalized Fibonacci number summation identities were derived using the fact that the Fibonacci number is the residue of a rational function. In this part, using the same method, some quadratic…

We give an alternative method to that of Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher to derive the leading exponential term in the asymptotic approximation to the partition function p(n,a), defined as the number of decompositions of a positive integer 'n'…

In a recent paper (Tran et al., Ann.Phys.311(2004)204), some asymptotic number theoretical results on the partitioning of an integer were derived exploiting its connection to the quantum density of states of a many-particle system. We…

The partition function $p(n)$ has been a testing ground for applications of analytic number theory to combinatorics. In particular, Hardy and Ramanujan invented the "circle method" to estimate the size of $p(n)$, which was later perfected…
