We study certain arithmetic properties of an analogue $B(n)$ of Lin's restricted partition function that counts the number of partition triples $\pi=(\pi_1,\pi_2,\pi_3)$ of $n$ such that $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ comprise distinct odd parts and…

We consider the number of the $6$-regular partitions of $n$, $b_6(n)$, and give infinite families of congruences modulo $3$ (in arithmetic progression) for $b_6(n)$. We also consider the number of the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts…

Let $b(n)$ denote the number of cubic partition pairs of $n$. We give affirmative answer to a conjecture of Lin, namely, we prove that $$b(49n+37)\equiv 0 \pmod{49}.$$ We also prove two congruences modulo $256$ satisfied by…

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 derive closed formulas for the number of $k$-coloured partitions and the number of plane partitions of $n$ in terms of the Bell polynomials.

We give a complete characterization of the parity of $b_8(n)$, the number of $8$-regular partitions of $n$. Namely, we prove that $b_8(n)$ is odd or even depending on whether or not we have the factorisation $24n+7=p^{4a+1}m^2$, for some…

In the present paper we initiate the study of a certain kind of partition inequality, by showing, for example, that if $M\geq 5$ is an integer and the integers $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime to $M$ and satisfy $1\leq a<b<M/2$, and the…

Let $b_k(n)$ denote the $k-$regular partitons of a natural number $n$. In this paper, we study the behavior of $b_k(n)$ modulo composite integers $M$ which are coprime to $6$. Specially, we prove that for arbitrary $k-$regular partiton…

In this work, we investigate the arithmetic properties of $p_{1,7^k}(n)$, which counts 2-color partitions of $n$ where one of the colors appears only in parts that are multiples of $7^k$. By constructing generating functions for…

Let $\bar{a}_s(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$, wherein each odd part is multicolored (atmost $s\ge 1$ colors) and the first appearance of parts may be overlined. In this paper, we establish new families of congruences modulo…

For any positive integers $n$ and $r$, let $p_r(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of $n$ where each part has $r$ distinct colours. Many authors studied the partition function $p_r(n)$ for particular values of $r$. In this paper, we prove…

In this paper, we study the partition functions $\overline{R_\ell^\ast}(n)$, which count the number of overpartitions of $n$ where the non-overlined parts are $\ell$-regular for a given $\ell$. Using elementary techniques, as well as the…

In this paper we introduce a class of sequences connected with the $m$--ary partition function and investigate their congruence properties. In particular, we get facts about the sequences of $m$--ary partitions $(b_{m}(n))_{m\in\mathbb{N}}$…

We consider $(k,j)$-colored partitions, partitions in which $k$ colors exist but at most $j$ colors may be chosen per size of part. In particular these generalize overpartitions. Advancing previous work, we find new congruences, including…

Recently, Shen (2016) and Alanazi et al. (2016) studied the arithmetic properties of the $\ell$-regular overpartition function $\overline{A}_\ell (n)$, which counts the number of overpartitions of $n$ into parts not divisible by $\ell$. In…

A $(k,\ell )$ partial partition of an $n$-element set is a collection of $\ell $ pairwise disjoint $k$-element subsets. It is proved that, if $n$ is large enough, one can find $\left\lfloor {n\choose k}/{\ell}\right\rfloor$ such partial…
