For a positive integer $\ell$, let $b_{\ell}(n)$ denote the number of $\ell$-regular partitions of a nonnegative integer $n$. Motivated by some recent conjectures of Keith and Zanello, we establish infinite families of congruences modulo…
Let $p(n)$ denote the number of partitions of a natural number $n$. As $ n \to \infty$, the $n$th root of $p(n)$ tends to $1$, which is related to the Cauchy--Hadamard test for power series. Andrews also discovered an elementary proof. Sun…
In his famous 2007 paper on three dimensional quantum gravity, Witten defined candidates for the partition functions $$Z_k(q)=\sum_{n=-k}^{\infty}w_k(n)q^n$$ of potential extremal CFTs with central charges of the form $c=24k$. Although such…
We define an extension of parity from the integers to the rational numbers. Three parity classes are found -- even, odd and `none'. Using the 2-adic valuation, we partition the rationals into subgroups with a rich algebraic structure. The…
Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. In this paper our main goal is to derive an asymptotic expansion up to order $N$ (for any fixed positive integer $N$) along with estimates for error bounds for the shifted quotient of the partition…
Inspired by the recent work by Nadji, Ahmia and Ram\'irez, we examined the arithmetic properties of $\bar{B}_{l_1,l_2} (n)$, the number of overpartitions of n whose parts are neither divisible by $l_1$ nor divisible by $l_2$. In particular,…
For any non-negative integer $n$ and non-zero integer $r$, let $p_r(n)$ denote Ramanujan's general partition function. By employing $q$-identities, we prove some new Ramanujan-type congruences modulo 5 for $p_r(n)$ for $r=-(5\lambda+1),…
Let $p\leq 23$ be a prime and $a_p(n)$ counts the number of partitions of $n$ where parts that are multiple of $p$ come up with $2$ colors. Using a result of Sussman, we derive the exact formula for $a_p(n)$ and obtain an asymptotic formula…
In $1984$, Andrews introduced the family of partition functions $c\phi_k(n)$, which enumerate generalized Frobenius partitions of $n$ with $k$ colors. In $2016$, Gu, Wang, and Xia established several congruences for $c\phi_6(n)$ and…
For a prime p and base b, the digit function delta(r) = floor(br/p) partitions the residues {1, ..., p-1} into b contiguous bins. The collision count C(g) records how many residues share a bin with their image under multiplication by g. We…
For the unrestricted partition function $p(n)$ for integers $n \geq 0$, it is known that $p(49n + 19) \equiv 0 \pmod{49}$, $p(49n + 33) \equiv 0 \pmod{49}$, and $p(49n + 40) \equiv 0 \pmod{49}$ for all $n \geq 0$. We find witness identities…
The coefficients of the generating function $(q;q)^\alpha_\infty$ produce $p_\alpha(n)$ for $\alpha \in \mathbb{Q}$. In particular, when $\alpha = -1$, the partition function is obtained. Recently, Chan and Wang identified and proved…
Andrews, Lewis and Lovejoy introduced the partition function $PD(n)$ as the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands. In a recent work, Lin studied a partition function $PD_{t}(n)$ which counts the number of tagged parts over…
Let ${{B}_{3}}(n)$ denote the number of partition triples of $n$ where each partition is 3-core. With the help of generating function manipulations, we find several infinite families of arithmetic identities and congruences for…
We study the index of nilpotency relative to certain Hecke operators in spaces of modular forms with integer weight and level $N$ with integer coefficients modulo primes $p$ for $(p, N) \in \{(3, 1), (5, 1), (7, 1), (3, 4)\}$. In these…
The partitions of the integers can be expressed exactly in an iterative and closed-form expression. This equation is derived from distributing the partitions of a number in a network that locates each partition in a unique and orderly…
Following Cayley, MacMahon, and Sylvester, define a non-unitary partition to be an integer partition with no part equal to one, and let $\nu(n)$ denote the number of non-unitary partitions of size $n$. In a 2021 paper, the sixth author…
The aim of this note is to provoke discussion concerning arithmetic properties of function $p_{d}(n)$ counting partitions of an positive integer $n$ into $d$-th powers, where $d\geq 2$. Besides results concerning the asymptotic behavior of…
We consider systems of $n$ diagonal equations in $k$th powers. Our main result shows that if the coefficient matrix of such a system is sufficiently non-singular, then the system is partition regular if and only if it satisfies Rado's…
Consideration of a classification of the number of partitions of a natural number according to the members of sub-partitions differing from unity leads to a non-recursive formula for the number of irreducible representations of the…
