Recently, MacMahon's generalized sum-of-divisor functions were shown to link partitions, quasimodular forms, and q-multiple zeta values. In this paper, we explore many further properties and extensions of these. Firstly, we address a…

In this article we exhibit new explicit families of congruences for the overpartition function, making effective the existence results given previously by Treneer. We give infinite families of congruences modulo $m$ for $m = 5, 7, 11$, and…

We generalise Euler's partition theorem involving odd parts and different parts for all moduli and provide new companions to Rogers-Ramanujan- Andrews-Gordon identities related to this theorem.

Ramanujan listed several q-series identities in his lost notebook. The most well known q-series identities are the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities which are first discovered by Rogers and then rediscovered by Ramanujan. In this paper, we…

Amdeberhan et al. (2024) introduced the notion of a generalized overcubic partition function $\overline a_c (n)$ and proved an infinite family of congruences modulo a prime $p\ge 3$ and some Ramanujan type congruences. In this paper, we…

Recently, Drema and N. Saikia (2023) and M. P. Saikia, Sarma, and Sellers (2023) proved several congruences modulo powers of $2$ for overpartition triples with odd parts. In this paper, we study further divisibility properties of…

Let p(n, k) denote the number of partitions of n into parts less than or equal to k. We show several properties of this function modulo 2. First, we prove that for fixed positive integers k and m, p(n,k) is periodic modulo m. Using this, we…

Andrews investigated parity conditions in the Rogers-Ramanujan-Gordon theorem. Under the conditions that even parts or odd parts appear an even number of times, Andrews discovered two Rogers-Ramanujan-Gordon type partition theorems and…

I propose two simple ways of generating the partitions of (n+1) from the partitions of n. A recurrence relation for P(n+1), the number of partitions of (n+1), in terms of P(n) and Q(n), where Q(n) denotes the number of partitions of n…

The partition function is known to exhibit beautiful congruences that are often proved using the theory of modular forms. In this paper, we study the extent to which these congruence results apply to the generalized Frobenius partitions…

A Goellnitz-Gordon partition is one in which the parts differ by at least 2, and where the inequality is strict if a part is even. Let Q_i(n) denote the number of partitions of n into distinct parts not congruent to i mod 4. By attaching…
