Arithmetic properties of the $\ell$-regular partitions

Abstract

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 $\ell$-regular partition functions, especially, for $\ell =2,4,5,8,13,16$. Moreover, based on the classical congruences for $p(n)$ given by Ramanujan, we obtain many more congruences for some $\ell$-regular partition functions.
