Vazirani and the author \cite{BV} gave a new interpretation of what we called $\ell$-partitions, also known as $(\ell,0)$-Carter partitions. The primary interpretation of such a partition $\lambda$ is that it corresponds to a Specht module…

Let $f_1=1,f_2=2$ and $f_i=f_{i-1}+f_{i-2}$ for $i>2$ be the sequence of Fibonacci numbers. Let $\Phi_h(n)$ be the quantity of partitions of natural number $n$ into $h$ different Fibonacci numbers. In terms of Zeckendorf partition of $n$ I…

We develop a new closed-form arithmetic and recursive formula for the partition function and a generalization of Andrews' smallest parts (spt) function. Using the inclusion-exclusion principle, we additionally develop a formula for the…

It was shown by V. Bergelson that any set B with positive upper multiplicative density contains nicely intertwined arithmetic and geometric progressions: For each positive integer k there exist integers a,b,d such that $ {b(a+id)^j:i,j…

We develop a calculus that gives an elementary approach to enumerate partition-like objects using an infinite upper-triangular number-theoretic matrix. We call this matrix the Partition-Frequency Enumeration (PFE) matrix. This matrix…

In this paper we give an alternate combinatorial description of the "$(\ell,0)$-JM partitions" (see \cite{F}) that are also $\ell$-regular. Our main theorem is the equivalence of our combinatoric and the one introduced by James and Mathas…

In this paper, we study classes of subexcedant functions enumerated by the Bell numbers and present bijections on set partitions. We present a set of permutations whose transposition arrays are the restricted growth functions, thus defining…

We give an upper bound for the error term in the Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher formula for the partition function. The main input is a new hybrid subconvexity bound for the central value $L(\tfrac 12,f\times (\tfrac{q}{\cdot}))$ in the $q$ and…

For rational $\alpha$, the fractional partition functions $p_\alpha(n)$ are given by the coefficients of the generating function $(q;q)^\alpha_\infty$. When $\alpha=-1$, one obtains the usual partition function. Congruences of the form…

Consider the space $R_{\Delta}$ of rational functions of several variables with poles on a fixed arrangement $\Delta$ of hyperplanes. We obtain a decomposition of $R_{\Delta}$ as a module over the ring of differential operators with…

Bounds on the log partition function are important in a variety of contexts, including approximate inference, model fitting, decision theory, and large deviations analysis. We introduce a new class of upper bounds on the log partition…

We give upper bounds on the Walsh coefficients of functions for which the derivative of order at least one has bounded variation of fractional order. Further, we also consider the Walsh coefficients of functions in periodic and non-periodic…

For a given prime $p$, we study the properties of the $p$-dissection identities of Ramanujan's theta functions $\psi(q)$ and $f(-q)$, respectively. Then as applications, we find many infinite family of congruences modulo 2 for some…

Let $\{w_{i,j}\}_{1\leq i\leq n, 1\leq j\leq s} \subset L_m=F(X_1,...,X_m)[{\partial \over \partial X_1},..., {\partial \over \partial X_m}]$ be linear partial differential operators of orders with respect to ${\partial \over \partial…

Explicit expressions for restricted partition function $W(s,{\bf d}^m)$ and its quasiperiodic components $W_j(s,{\bf d}^m)$ (called {\em Sylvester waves}) for a set of positive integers ${\bf d}^m = \{d_1, d_2, ..., d_m\}$ are derived. The…

This article introduces recursive relations allowing the calculation of the number of partitions with constraints on the minimum and/or on the maximum fragment size.

Motivated by the study of integer partitions, we consider partitions of integers into fractions of a particular form, namely with constant denominators and distinct odd or even numerators. When numerators are odd, the numbers of partitions…

Let A be a finite subset of an abelian group (G, +). Let h $\ge$ 2 be an integer. If |A| $\ge$ 2 and the cardinality |hA| of the h-fold iterated sumset hA = A + $\times$ $\times$ $\times$ + A is known, what can one say about |(h -- 1)A| and…

This paper records some apparently new results for the partition of integer intervals [1, n] into weakly sum-free subsets. These were produced using a method closely related to that used by Schur in 1917. New lower bounds can be produced in…

For integers $n$ and $k$, the density Hales-Jewett number $c_{n,k}$ is defined as the maximal size of a subset of $[k]^n$ that contains no combinatorial line. We show that for $k \ge 3$ the density Hales-Jewett number $c_{n,k}$ is equal to…
