Abstract We study the generating function for Q ( n ), the number of partitions of a natural number n into distinct parts. Using the arithmetic properties of Fourier coefficients of integer weight modular forms, we prove several theorems on the divisibility and distribution of Q ( n ) modulo primes p ⩾5.

### The Number of Partitions into Distinct Parts Modulo Powers of 5

A relationship is established between the factorization of 24n + 1 and the 5‐divisibility of Q(n), where Q(n)is the number of partitions of n into distinct parts. As an application, an abundance of

### The arithmetic of partitions into distinct parts

• Mathematics
• 2001
A partition of the positive integer n into distinct parts is a decreasing sequence of positive integers whose sum is n , and the number of such partitions is denoted by Q ( n ). If we adopt the

Let bl(n) denote the number of l-regular partitions of n, where l is prime and 3 ≤ l ≤ 23. In this paper we prove results on the distribution of bl(n) modulo m for any odd integer m > 1 with 3 ∤ m if

### Number theoretic properties of generating functions related to Dyson's rank for partitions into distinct parts

Let Q(n) denote the number of partitions of n into distinct parts. We show that Dyson's rank provides a combinatorial interpretation of the well-known fact that Q(n) is almost always divisible by 4.

Let [Formula: see text] denote the number of partitions of a non-negative integer into distinct (or, odd) parts. We find exact generating functions for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and

In this article, we explore the parity of sums of partition numbers at certain places in arithmetic progressions. In particular, we investigate pairs $$(a,b)\in \mathbb {N}^2$$(a,b)∈N2 for which if

### The pa-Regular Partition Function Modulo pj☆

Abstract Let b l ( n ) denote the number of l-regular partitions of n , where l is a positive power of a prime p . We study in this paper the behavior of b l ( n ) modulo powers of p . In particular,

### 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

In classical representation theory, k-regular partitions of n label irreducible kmodular representations of the symmetric group Sn when k is prime [8]. More recently, such partitions have been

It is shown that if i≢0 (mod 2j), then Q(n) lies in every residue class modulo 2j infinitely often, and a simple “closed formula” is obtained using the arithmetic of the ring Z [ −6 ].

### Partition identities involving gaps and weights

We obtain interesting new identities connecting the famous partition functions of Euler, Gauss, Lebesgue, Rogers–Ramanujan and others by attaching weights to the gaps between parts. The weights are

### Distribution of the partition function modulo $m$

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,

### The Theory of Partitions

The generating functions which occur in the theory of partitions and functions closely related to them belong to two important classes of functions, namely the theta functions and the modular functions, both of which have received much attention and have been most thoroughly investigated since the time of Jacobi.
