The partition function $p(n)$ and many of its related restricted partition functions have recently been shown independently to satisfy log-concavity: $p(n)^2 \geq p(n-1)p(n+1)$ for $n\geq 26$, and satisfy the inequality: $p(n)p(m) \geq…
The partition function $ p_{[1^c11^d]}(n)$ can be defined using the generating function, \[\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}p_{[1^c{11}^d]}(n)q^n=\prod_{n=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{1}{(1-q^n)^c(1-q^{11 n})^d}.\] In this paper, we prove infinite families of…
Let $b(n)$ be the number of partition triples $\pi=(\pi_1,\pi_2,\pi_3)$ of $n$ such that $\pi_1$ consists of distinct odd parts, and $\pi_2$ and $\pi_3$ consist of parts divisible by $4$. Utilizing modular forms, Lin obtained the generating…
For rational $\alpha$, the fractional partition functions $p_\alpha(n)$ are given by the coefficients of the generating function $(q;q)^\alpha_\infty$. When $\alpha=-1$, one obtains the usual partition function. Congruences of the form…

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…
The enumeration $d_k(n)$ of $k$-elongated plane partition diamonds has emerged as a generalization of the classical integer partition function $p(n)$. Congruences for $d_k(n)$ modulo certain powers of primes have been proven via elementary…
We discuss a new companion to Capparelli's identities. Capparelli's identities for m=1,2 state that the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts not congruent to m, -m modulo $6$ is equal to the number of partitions of n into…
In recent work, M. Schneider and the first author studied a curious class of integer partitions called "sequentially congruent" partitions: the $m$th part is congruent to the $(m+1)$th part modulo $m$, with the smallest part congruent to…
For a given prime $p$, we study the properties of the $p$-dissection identities of Ramanujan's theta functions $\psi(q)$ and $f(-q)$, respectively. Then as applications, we find many infinite family of congruences modulo 2 for some…
Denote by $p(n)$ the number of partitions of $n$ and by $N(a,M;n)$ the number of partitions of $n$ with rank congruent to $a$ modulo $M$. By considering the deviation \begin{equation*} D(a,M) := \sum_{n= 0}^{\infty}\left(N(a,M;n) -…
Let $p(n)$ denote the partition function. DeSalvo and Pak proved that $\frac{p(n-1)}{p(n)}\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)> \frac{p(n)}{p(n+1)}$ for $n\geq 2$, as conjectured by Chen. Moreover, they conjectured that a sharper inequality…

In the $1970$s, Nicolas proved that the partition function $p(n)$ is log-concave for $ n > 25$. In \cite{HNT21}, a precise conjecture on the log-concavity for the plane partition function $\func{pp}(n)$ for $n >11$ was stated. This was…
A partition is said to be $\ell$-regular if none of its parts is a multiple of $\ell$. Let $b^\prime_5(n)$ denote the number of 5-regular partitions into distinct parts (equivalently, into odd parts) of $n$. This function has also close…
