We consider sequences counting integer partitions in two colors (red and blue) in which the even parts occur only in blue color. We focus on subsequences defined by constraints on the parity and color of the summands. We establish formulas…

We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions on the Gaussian integers, showing that every bounded multiplicative function on the Gaussian integers can be decomposed into a term which is approximately periodic and another which…

Let $A$ be a finite matrix with rational entries. We say that $A$ is {\it doubly image partition regular\/} if whenever the set ${\mathbb N}$ of positive integers is finitely coloured, there exists $\vec x$ such that the entries of $A\vec…

Let $m$ be a positive integer and $b_{m}(n)$ be the number of partitions of $n$ with parts being powers of 2, where each part can take $m$ colors. We show that if $m=2^{k}-1$, then there exists the natural density of integers $n$ such that…

For relatively prime natural numbers $a$ and $b$, we study the two equations $ax+by = (a-1)(b-1)/2$ and $ax+by+1= (a-1)(b-1)/2$, which arise from the study of cyclotomic polynomials. Previous work showed that exactly one equation has a…

For each natural number $m\ge 3$, let $P_m(x)$ denote the generalized $m$-gonal number $\frac{(m-2)x^2-(m-4)x}{2}$ with $x\in\mathbb{Z}$. In this paper, with the help of the congruence theta function, we establish conditions on $a$, $b$,…

A linear configuration is said to be common in a finite Abelian group $G$ if for every 2-coloring of $G$ the number of monochromatic instances of the configuration is at least as large as for a randomly chosen coloring. Saad and Wolf…

A classical question in combinatorial number theory asks whether an equation has a solution inside a particular subset of its domain. The Rado's Theorem gives a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a systems of linear equations to…

Let $A\subset \N_{+}$ and by $P_{A}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into parts from the set $A$. The aim of this paper is to prove several result concerning the existence of integer solutions of Diophantine equations…

A cubic partition is an integer partition wherein the even parts can appear in two colors. In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized cubic partitions and prove a number of new congruences akin to the classical Ramanujan-type. We…

Let $k,a\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $p_1,\cdots,p_k\in \mathbb{Q}[n]$ with zero constant term. We show that for any finite coloring of $\mathbb{Q}$, there are non-zero $x,y\in \mathbb{Q}$ such that there exists a color which contains a set of…
