Several new estimates for the 2-adic valuations of Stirling numbers of the second kind are proved. These estimates, together with criteria for when they are sharp, lead to improvements in several known theorems and their proofs, as well as…

Given an integer base $b\geq 2$, a number $\rho\geq 1$ of colors, and a finite sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_\rho)$ of positive integers, we introduce the concept of a $\Lambda$-restricted $\rho$-colored $b$-ary partition of…

A parking function is a function $\pi:[n]\to [n]$ whose $i$th-smallest output is at most $i,$ corresponding to a parking procedure for $n$ cars on a one-way street. We refine this concept by introducing preference-restricted parking…

We improve the estimates in the restriction problem in dimension $n \ge 4$. To do so, we establish a weak version of a $k$-linear restriction estimate for any $k$. The exponents in this weak $k$-linear estimate are sharp for all $k$ and…

In this article, we give explicit formulas for the $p$-adic valuations of the Fibonomial coefficients ${p^a n \choose n}_F$ for all primes $p$ and positive integers $a$ and $n$. This is a continuation from our previous article extending…

Kostant's partition function counts the number of ways to represent a particular vector (weight) as a nonnegative integral sum of positive roots of a Lie algebra. For a given weight the $q$-analog of Kostant's partition function is a…

Explicit expressions for restricted partition function $W(s,{\bf d}^m)$ and its quasiperiodic components $W_j(s,{\bf d}^m)$ (called Sylvester waves) for a set of positive integers ${\bf d}^m = \{d_1, d_2, ..., d_m\}$ are derived. The…

An extension of the method and results of A. Schwarz for evaluating the partition function of a quadratic functional is presented. This enables the partition functions to be evaluated for a wide class of quadratic functionals of interest in…

We show that the coefficients of rational 2-functions are contained in an abelian number field. More precisely, we show that the poles of such functions are poles of order one and given by roots of unity and rational residue.

Let $\{U_n\}$ be given by $U_0=1$ and $U_n=-2\sum_{k=1}^{[n/2]} \b n{2k}U_{n-2k}\ (n\ge 1)$, where $[\cdot]$ is the greatest integer function. In the paper we present a summation formula and several congruences involving $\{U_n\}$.

Let A and M be nonempty sets of positive integers. A partition of the positive integer n with parts in A and multiplicities in M is a representation of n in the form n = \sum_{a\in A} m_a a, where m_a is in M U {0} for all a in A, and m_a…

For a set of nonnegative integers $S$ let $R_{S}(n)$ denote the number of unordered representations of the integer $n$ as the sum of two different terms from $S$. In this paper we focus on partitions of the natural numbers into two sets…

In this paper, we obtain upper and lower bounds for the partition function $p(n)$ by using an elementary geometric inequality in Euclidean space, and we extend the method to generalizations of the partition function.

We study the Dyson rank function $N(r,3;n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ with rank $\equiv r \pmod 3$. We investigate the convexity of these functions. We extend $N(r,3;n)$ multiplicatively to the set of partitions, and we determine the…

We present a natural extension of Andrews' multiple sums counting partitions with difference 2 at distance $k-1$, by deriving the generating function for $K$-restricted jagged partitions. A jagged partition is a collection of non-negative…

We propose a simple estimator that allows to calculate the absolute value of a system's partition function from a finite sampling of its canonical ensemble. The estimator utilizes a volume correction term to compensate the effect that the…
