Explaining Unforeseen Congruence Relationships Between PEND and POND Partitions via an Atkin--Lehner Involution

James A. Sellers, Nicolas Allen Smoot

For the past several years, numerous authors have studied POD and PED partitions from a variety of perspectives. These are integer partitions wherein the odd parts must be distinct…

On the Classification of Modular Congruence Families

Nicolas Allen Smoot

Congruence families, i.e., -adic convergence for well-defined arithmetic subsequences, is a commonplace phenomenon for the coefficients of modular forms. Such families superf…

Old Meets New: Connecting Two Infinite Families of Congruences Modulo Powers of 5 for Generalized Frobenius Partition Functions

Frank G. Garvan, James A. Sellers, Nicolas Allen Smoot

In 2012 Paule and Radu proved a difficult family of congruences modulo powers of 5 for Andrews' 2-colored generalized Frobenius partition function. The family is associated with th…

A Finite-Bound Partition Equinumerosity Result Generalizing a Solution of a Problem Posed by Andrews and Deutsch

Michael J. Schlosser, Nicolas Allen Smoot

We introduce a finite-bound extension of a partition equinumerosity result which was orignally proposed as a problem by Andrews and Deutsch in 2016, and given a generalized form in…
