We find and prove a class of congruences modulo 4 for Andrews' partition with certain ternary quadratic form. We also discuss distribution of $\overline{\mathcal{EO}}(n)$ and further prove that $\overline{\mathcal{EO}}(n)\equiv0\pmod4$ for…

This article is an extensive study of partitions with fixed number of odd and even-indexed odd parts. We use these partitions to generalize recent results of C. Savage and A. Sills. Moreover, we derive explicit formulas for generating…

Let $b^{k}_{\ell,m}(n)$ denotes the number of $k-$colored partitions of $n$ into parts that are not multiples of $\ell$ or $m$. We establish several congruence relations for $b_{\ell,m}(n)$. For instance, for any nonnegative integer $n$…

In this paper we present a new formula for the number of unrestricted partitions of $n$. We do this by introducing a correspondence between the number of unrestrited partitions of $n$ and the number of non-negative solutions of systems of…

Let $\bar{a}_s(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$, wherein each odd part is multicolored (atmost $s\ge 1$ colors) and the first appearance of parts may be overlined. In this paper, we establish new families of congruences modulo…

Lin introduced the partition function $\text{PDO}_t(n)$, which counts the total number of tagged parts over all the partitions of $n$ with designated summands in which all parts are odd. For $k\geq0$, Lin conjectured congruences for…

We give a complete characterization of the parity of $b_8(n)$, the number of $8$-regular partitions of $n$. Namely, we prove that $b_8(n)$ is odd or even depending on whether or not we have the factorisation $24n+7=p^{4a+1}m^2$, for some…

The partition function is known to exhibit beautiful congruences that are often proved using the theory of modular forms. In this paper, we study the extent to which these congruence results apply to the generalized Frobenius partitions…

Let $a_k(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ wherein even parts come in only one color, while the odd parts may be ``colored" with one of $k$ colors, for fixed $k$. In this note, we find some congruences for $a_k(n)$ in the spirit of…

We prove a theorem which add a new member to Rogers-Ramanujan identities. This new member counts partitions with different type of constraints on even and odd parts. Generalizing this theorem, we obtain two family of partition identities of…

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…

Recent results by Andrews and Merca on the number of even parts in all partitions of n into distinct parts, a(n), were derived via generating functions. This paper extends these results to the number of parts divisible by k in all the…

A result of Legendre asserts that the difference between the numbers of (length) even and odd partitions of $n$ into distinct parts is $0$, $1$, or $-1$; this also follows from Euler's pentagonal number theorem. We establish an analogous…
