We introduce two new integer partition functions, both of which are the number of partition quadruples of $n$ with certain size restrictions. We prove both functions satisfy Ramanujan-type congruences modulo $3$, $5$, $7$, and $13$ by use…

Partitions wherein the even parts appear in two different colours are known as cubic partitions. Recently, Merca introduced and studied the function $A(n)$, which is defined as the difference between the number of cubic partitions of $n$…

Recently, Andrews and Ghosh Dastidar (Ramanujan J. \textbf{69}, Art. No. 26, 2026) studied two interesting functions $SOME(n)$ and $DSOME(n)$, where $SOME(n)$ is the sum of all the odd parts in the partitions of $n$ minus the sum of all…

In 1919, Ramanujan discovered his famous congruences for the partition function. Not too long after, Freeman Dyson conjectured a combinatorial statistic existed that explained the three congruences, which he dubbed the \textit{crank}. A…

Recently, Merca and Schmidt found some decompositions for the partition function $p(n)$ in terms of the classical M\"{o}bius function as well as Euler's totient. In this paper, we define a counting function $T_k^r(m)$ on the set of…

The number of partitions of $n$ wherein odd parts are distinct and even parts are unrestricted, often denoted by $pod(n)$. In this paper, we provide linear recurrence relations for $pod(n)$, and the connections of $pod(n)$ with other…

The generating function of partitions with repeated (resp. distinct) parts such that each odd part is less than twice the smallest part is shown to be the third order mock theta function $\omega(q)$ (resp. $\nu(-q)$). Similar results for…

Bressoud introduced the partition function $B(\alpha_1,\ldots,\alpha_\lambda;\eta,k,r;n)$, which counts the number of partitions with certain difference conditions. Bressoud posed a conjecture on the generating function for the partition…

In this paper, we use the Lambert series generating function for Euler's totient function to introduce a new identity for the number of $1$'s in the partitions of $n$. A new expansion for Euler's partition function $p(n)$ is derived in this…

We give some new formulas about factorizations of $K$-$k$-Schur functions $g^{(k)}_{\lambda}$, analogous to the $k$-rectangle factorization formula $s^{(k)}_{R_t\cup\lambda}=s^{(k)}_{R_t}s^{(k)}_{\lambda}$ of $k$-Schur functions, where…

One of the most basic results concerning the number-theoretic properties of the partition function $p(n)$ is that $p(n)$ takes each value of parity infinitely often. This statement was first proved by Kolberg in 1959, and it was…

The partitions of the integers can be expressed exactly in an iterative and closed-form expression. This equation is derived from distributing the partitions of a number in a network that locates each partition in a unique and orderly…

Partition functions for non-interacting particles are known to be symmetric functions. It is shown that powerful group-theoretical techniques can be used not only to derive these relationships, but also to significantly simplify calculation…

We study the number $p(n,t)$ of partitions of $n$ with difference $t$ between largest and smallest parts. Our main result is an explicit formula for the generating function $P_t(q) := \sum_{n \ge 1} p(n,t) \, q^n$. Somewhat surprisingly,…
