We obtain a combinatorial proof of a surprising weighted partition equality of Berkovich and Uncu. Our proof naturally leads to a formula for the number of partitions with a given parity of the smallest part, in terms of S(i), the number of…
Let $P_{d}(n)$ denote the number of $n \times \ldots \times n$ $d$-dimensional partitions with entries from $\left\{0,1,\ldots,n\right\}$. Building upon the works of Balogh-Treglown-Wagner and Noel-Scott-Sudakov, we show that when $d \to…
For integers $k,t \geq 2$, and $1\leq r \leq t$ let $D_k^\times(r,t;n)$ be the number of parts among all $k$-indivisible partitions of $n$ (i.e., partitions where all parts are not divisible by $k$) of $n$ that are congruent to $r$ modulo…
We study certain bijection between plane partitions and $\mathbb{N}$-matrices. As applications, we prove a Cauchy-type identity for generalized dual Grothendieck polynomials. We introduce two statistics on plane partitions, whose generating…
We report an algorithm for the partition of a line segment according to a given ratio $\nu$. At each step the length distribution among sets of the partition follows a binomial distribution. We call $k$-set to the set of elements with the…
We prove that the generating function of partitions into $k$-th powers is strongly Gaussian in the sense of B\'aez-Duarte. Within the probabilistic framework of Khinchin families, the Hardy--Ramanujan asymptotic formula for the…
Stanley defined a partition function t(n) as the number of partitions $\lambda$ of n such that the number of odd parts of $\lambda$ is congruent to the number of odd parts of the conjugate partition $\lambda'$ modulo 4. We show that t(n)…
This paper is concerned with the function $r_{k,s}(n)$, the number of (ordered) representations of $n$ as the sum of $s$ positive $k$-th powers, where integers $k,s\ge 2$. We examine the mean average of the function, or equivalently,…
In this paper, we are mainly concerned with the enumeration of $(2k+1, 2k+3)$-core partitions with distinct parts. We derive the number and the largest size of such partitions, confirming two conjectures posed by Straub.
Let n be a non-null positive integer and $d(n)$ is the number of positive divisors of n, called the divisor function. Of course, $d(n) \leq n$. $d(n) = 1$ if and only if $n = 1$. For $n > 2$ we have $d(n) \geq 2$ and in this paper we try to…
A generalization of a beautiful $q$-series identity found in the unorganized portion of Ramanujan's second and third notebooks is obtained. As a consequence, we derive a new three-parameter identity which is a rich source of…
We study a problem of Douglass and Ono concerning the smallest integer $n$ such that the partition function $p(n)$ begins with a specified string of digits $f$ in base $b$. By employing an elementary discrepancy framework, we establish new…
Let A and M be nonempty sets of positive integers. A partition of the positive integer n with parts in A and multiplicities in M is a representation of n in the form n = \sum_{a\in A} m_a a, where m_a is in M U {0} for all a in A, and m_a…
Recently, Blecher and Knopfmacher explored the notion of fixed points in integer partitions. Here, we distinguish partitions with a fixed point by which value is fixed and analyze the resulting triangle of integers. In particular, we…
We study two types of probability measures on the set of integer partitions of $n$ with at most $m$ parts. The first one chooses the random partition with a chance related to its largest part only. We then obtain the limiting distributions…
We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…
The projective degrees of strict partitions of n were computed for all n < 101 and the partitions with maximal projective degree were found for each n. It was observed that maximizing partitions for successive values of n "lie close to each…
Define a "nuclear partition" to be an integer partition with no part equal to one. In this study we prove a simple formula to compute the partition function $p(n)$ by counting only the nuclear partitions of $n$, a vanishingly small subset…
Let $k$ be a natural number and let $c=2.134693\ldots$ be the unique real solution of the equation $2c=2+\log (5c-1)$ in $[1,\infty)$. Then, when $s\ge ck+4$, we establish an asymptotic lower bound of the expected order of magnitude for the…
For each integer $k\ge 1$, we define an algorithm which associates to a partition whose maximal value is at most $k$ a certain subset of all partitions. In the case when we begin with a partition $\lambda$ which is square, i.e…
