For a given ring (domain) in $\overline{\mathbb{R}}^n$ we discuss whether its boundary components can be separated by an annular ring with modulus nearly equal to that of the given ring. In particular, we show that, for all $n\ge 3\,,$ the…
We set the scene with known values and functional relations for dilogarithms, trilogarithms and polylogarithms of various orders, along with more recent Euler sum values and multidimensional computations paying homage to the three late…
A partition $\mathcal{P}$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called a $(k,\varepsilon)$-secluded partition if, for every $\vec{p} \in \mathbb{R}^d$, the ball $\overline{B}_{\infty}(\varepsilon, \vec{p})$ intersects at most $k$ members of $\mathcal{P}$. A…
The purpose of this paper is to present a syatemic study of some familes of higher-order Euler numbers and polynomials. In particular, by using the basis property of higher-order Euler polynomials for the space of polynomials of degree less…
In this paper, we introduce the polynomial continued fraction, a close relative of the well-known simple continued fraction expansions which are widely used in number theory and in general. While they may not possess all the intriguing…
Inspired by Armin Straub's conjecture (arXiv:1601.07161) about the number and maximal size of (2n+1, 2n+3)-core partitions with distinct parts, we develop relatively efficient, symbolic-computational algorithms, based on non-linear…
Rounding has proven to be a fundamental tool in theoretical computer science. By observing that rounding and partitioning of $\mathbb{R}^d$ are equivalent, we introduce the following natural partition problem which we call the {\em secluded…
Partitions of the set of primes are introduced based on the Chebyshev polynomials at rationals. The prime densities of all such partitions are established. Euler's Criterion for $SL(2,\mathbb Q)$ is formulated, which is the bridge between…
We prove various inequalities between the number of partitions with the bound on the largest part and some restrictions on occurrences of parts. We explore many interesting consequences of these partition inequalities. In particular, we…
This paper investigates what can be inferred about an arbitrary continuous probability distribution from a finite sample of $N$ observations drawn from it. The central finding is that the $N$ sorted sample points partition the real line…
In $2003$, Alladi, Andrews and Berkovich proved a four-parameter partition identity lying beyond a celebrated identity of G\"ollnitz. Since then it has been an open problem to extend their work to five or more parameters. In part I of this…
The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we study the number of partitions of a positive integer $m$ into at most $n$ parts in a given set $A$. We prove that such a number is bounded by the $n$-th Fibonacci number $F(n)$ for any $m$ and…
Using a new graphical representation for partitions, the author obtains a family of partition identities associated with partitions into distinct parts of an arithmetic progression, or, more generally, with partitions into distinct parts of…
We determine an infinite family of linear identities for the number $A_4(n)$ of partition pairs of $n$ with $4$-cores by employing elementary $q$-series techniques and certain $3$-dissection formulas. We then discover an infinite family of…
Ramanujan's celebrated partition congruences modulo $\ell\in \{5, 7, 11\}$ assert that $$ p(\ell n+\delta_{\ell})\equiv 0\pmod{\ell}, $$ where $0<\delta_{\ell}<\ell$ satisfies $24\delta_{\ell}\equiv 1\pmod{\ell}.$ By proving Subbarao's…
We obtain recurrences for smallest parts functions which resemble Euler's recurrence for the ordinary partition function. The proofs involve the holomorphic projection of non-holomorphic modular forms of weight 2.
In this paper, we investigate the notion of partition of a finite partially ordered set (poset, for short). We will define three different notions of partition of a poset, namely, monotone, regular, and open partition. For each of these…
Let $P$ be the set of integer partitions and $D$ the subset of those with distinct parts. We extend a correspondence of Burge between partitions and binary words to give encodings of both $D$ and $D$ as words over a $k$-ary alphabet, for…
The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…
We prove two partition identities which are dual to the Rogers-Ramanujan identities. These identities are inspired by (and proved using) a correspondence between three kinds of objects: a new type of partitions (neighborly partitions),…
