In 2003, Maroti showed that one could use the machinery of l-cores and l-quotients of partitions to establish lower bounds for p(n), the number of partitions of n. In this paper we explore these ideas in the case l=2, using them to give a…

Let $h,k \ge 2$ be integers. We say a set $A$ of positive integers is an asymptotic basis of order $k$ if every large enough positive integer can be represented as the sum of $k$ terms from $A$. A set of positive integers $A$ is called…

A theorem of Tverberg from 1966 asserts that every set $X\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ of $n=T(d,r)=(d+1)(r-1)+1$ points can be partitioned into $r$ pairwise disjoint subsets, whose convex hulls have a point in common. Thus every such partition…

In $1963$ Graham proved that every positive integer $n \ge 78$ can be written as a sum of distinct positive integers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_r$ for which $\frac{1}{a_1} + \frac{1}{a_2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{a_r}$ is equal to $1$. In the same…

We give an asymptotic estimate for the number of partitions of a set of $n$ elements, whose block sizes avoid a given set $\mathcal{S}$ of natural numbers. As an application, we derive an estimate for the number of partitions of a set with…

Motivated by spin modular representations of the symmetric groups, we propose two generalizations of the Schur regular partitions for an odd integer $p\geq 3$. One forms a subset of the set of $p$-strict partitions, and the other forms that…

For fixed s, the size of an (s, s+1)-core partition with distinct parts can be seen as a random variable X_s. Using computer-assisted methods, we derive formulas for the expectation, variance, and higher moments of X_s. Our results give…

In this paper, we investigate $\pi(m,n)$, the number of partitions of the \emph{bipartite number} $(m,n)$ into \emph{steadily decreasing} parts, introduced by L.Carlitz ['A problem in partitions', Duke Math Journal 30 (1963), 203--213]. We…

A system of homogeneous linear equations with integer coefficients is partition regular if, whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured, the system has a monochromatic solution. The Finite Sums theorem provided the first example of…

A new formula for the partition function $p(n)$ is developed. We show that the number of partitions of $n$ can be expressed as the sum of a simple function of the two largest parts of all partitions. Specifically, if $a_1 + >... + a_k = n$…

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…

An integer partition is called graphical if it is the degree sequence of a simple graph. We prove that the probability that a uniformly chosen partition of size $n$ is graphical decreases to zero faster than $n^{-.003}$, answering a…

Let $n$ be a non-negative integer and $A=\{a_1,\ldots,a_k\}$ be a multi-set with $k$ not necessarily distinct members, where $a_1\leqslant\ldots\leqslant a_k$. We denote by $\Delta(n,A)$ the number of ways to partition $n$ as the form…

The norm of an integer partition is defined as the product of its parts. This statistic was recently introduced by Schneider in connection to partition zeta functions. In this note, we use the method of moments to study the distribution of…

A partition of $n$ is $l$-regular if none of its parts is divisible by $l$. Let $b_l(n)$ denote the number of $l$-regular partitions of $n$. In this paper, using theta function identities due to Ramanujan, we establish some new infinite…

The number of solid partitions of a positive integer is an unsolved problem in combinatorial number theory. In this paper, solid partitions are studied numerically by the method of exact enumeration for integers up to 50 and by Monte Carlo…

Let A be a set of positive integers with gcd(A) = 1, and let p_A(n) be the partition function of A. Let c = \pi \sqrt(2/3). Let \alpha > 0. It is proved that log p_A(n) ~ c\sqrt(\alpha n) if and only if the set A has asymptotic density…

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…

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)…
