Ramanujan (and others) proved that the partition function satisfies a number of striking congruences modulo powers of 5, 7 and 11. A number of further congruences were shown by the works of Atkin, O'Brien, and Newman. In this paper we prove that there are infinitely many such congruences for every prime modulus exceeding 3. In addition, we provide a simple criterion guaranteeing the truth of Newman's conjecture for any prime modulus exceeding 3 (recall that Newman's conjecture asserts that the…

Using another type of identity, one based on Hecke operators, it is obtained a complete multiplicative theory for s(n) modulo 3 and congruences confirm unpublished conjectures of Garvan and Sellers.
Distribution of the partitions of n in which no part appears exactly once
In this paper we study the function g ( n ), which denotes the number of partitions of n in which no part appears exactly once. We prove that for each prime m ≥ 5, there exist Ramanujan-type
Divisibility and distribution of 5-regular partitions
. In this paper we study the function b 3 ( n ), which denotes the number of 3-regular partitions of n , also the number of partitions where no part appears more than twice. We prove that for each

Congruences for Andrews' Smallest Parts Partition Function and New Congruences for Dyson's Rank

An integral power series is called lacunary modulo $M$ if almost all of its coefficients are divisible by $M$. Motivated by the parity problem for the partition function, $p(n)$, Gordon and Ono
Congruences like Atkin's for the partition function

. Let p ( n ) be the ordinary partition function. In the 1960s Atkin found a number of examples of congruences of the form p ( Q 3 ℓn + β ) ≡ 0 (mod ℓ ) where ℓ and Q are prime and 5 ≤ ℓ ≤ 31; these
Scarcity of congruences for the partition function

The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form \$p(\ell
Infinite families of crank functions, Stanton-type conjectures, and unimodality
• Mathematics
• 2021
Dyson’s rank function and the Andrews–Garvan crank function famously give combinatorial witnesses for Ramanujan’s partition function congruences modulo 5, 7, and 11. While these functions can be used
