The Raney numbers $R_{p,r}(k)$ are a two-parameter generalization of the Catalan numbers. In this paper, we obtain a recurrence relation for the Raney numbers which is a generalization of the recurrence relation for the Catalan numbers.…

In 2015 Cristian-Silviu Radu designed an algorithm to detect identities of a class studied by Ramanujan and Kolberg. This class includes the famous identities by Ramanujan which provide a witness to the divisibility properties of $p(5n+4),$…

Let $r \geq 0$, and let $\lambda$ and $\mu$ be partitions such that $\lambda_1 \leq r + 1$. We present a combinatorial interpretation of the plethysm coefficient $\langle s_\lambda, s_\mu[s_r] \rangle$. As a consequence, we solve the…

In the present paper, we study problems related to the classical Borsuk's problem. Recall that the Borsuk's problem consists in finding the smallest number $ f(n) $ of parts of smaller diameter into which an arbitrary set of diameter 1 in…

In this article, we study the arithmetic properties of the partition function $p_8(n)$, the number of 8-colour partitions of $n$. We prove several Ramanujan type congruences modulo higher powers of 2 for the function $p_8(n)$ by finding…

We apply lattice point counting methods to compute the multiplicities in the plethysm of $GL(n)$. Our approach gives insight into the asymptotic growth of the plethysm and makes the problem amenable to computer algebra. We prove an old…

For each $n\geq 1$, we express the partition function $p(n)$ as a CM trace on $X_0(6)$ of the discriminant $\Delta_n:=1-24n$ invariants of a weight 0 weak Maass function $P$ that records where CM elliptic curves sit on $X(1)$, together with…

The counting of partitions according to their genus is revisited. The case of genus 0 -- non-crossing partitions -- is well known. Our approach relies on two pillars: first a functional equation between generating functions, originally…

Simultaneous core partitions have attracted much attention since Anderson's work on the number of $(t_1,t_2)$-core partitions. In this paper we focus on simultaneous core partitions with distinct parts. The generating function of $t$-core…

We give three proofs of the following result conjectured by Carriegos, De Castro-Garc\'{\i}a and Mu\~noz Casta\~neda in their work on enumeration of control systems: when $\binom{k+1}{2} \le n < \binom{k+2}{2}$, there are as many partitions…

A bijection is presented between (1): partitions with conditions $f_j+f_{j+1}\leq k-1$ and $ f_1\leq i-1$, where $f_j$ is the frequency of the part $j$ in the partition, and (2): sets of $k-1$ ordered partitions $(n^{(1)}, n^{(2)}, ...,…

The aim of this note is to provoke discussion concerning arithmetic properties of function $p_{d}(n)$ counting partitions of an positive integer $n$ into $d$-th powers, where $d\geq 2$. Besides results concerning the asymptotic behavior of…

The problem of integer partitions is addressed using the microcanonical approach which is based on the analogy between this problem in the number theory and the calculation of microstates of a many-boson system. For ordinary…

For $G=G_{n, 1/2}$, the Erd\H{o}s--Renyi random graph, let $X_n$ be the random variable representing the number of distinct partitions of $V(G)$ into sets $A_1, \ldots, A_q$ so that the degree of each vertex in $G[A_i]$ is divisible by $q$…

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…

In many high-dimensional problems,polynomial-time algorithms fall short of achieving the statistical limits attainable without computational constraints. A powerful approach to probe the limits of polynomial-time algorithms is to study the…

Recently there has been quite a bit of study carried out related to arithmetic properties of overpartitions into non-multiples of two co-prime integers. The paper [19] by Nadji et al. looked into congruences modulo $3$ and powers of $2$ for…

Extending the partition function multiplicatively to a function on partitions, we show that it has a unique maximum at an explicitly given partition for any $n\neq 7$. The basis for this is an inequality for the partition function which…

We use the celebrated circle method of Hardy and Ramanujan to develop convergent formulae for counting a restricted class of partitions that arise from the G\"ollnitz--Gordon identities.

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…
