Congruences modulo $4$ for Rogers--Ramanujan--Gordon type overpartitions

Abstract

In a recent work, Andrews defined the singular overpartitions with the goal of presenting an overpartition analogue to the theorems of Rogers--Ramanujan type for ordinary partitions with restricted successive ranks. As a small part of his work, Andrews noted two congruences modulo 33 for the number of singular overpartitions prescribed by parameters k=3k=3 and i=1i=1. It should be noticed that this number equals the number of the Rogers--Ramanujan--Gordon type overpartitions with k=i=3k=i=3 which come from the overpartition analogue of Gordon's Rogers--Ramanujan partition theorem introduced by Chen, Sang and Shi. In this paper, we derive numbers of congruence identities modulo 44 for the number of Rogers--Ramanujan--Gordon type overpartitions.
