چکیده

where c#,Jr) is the number of F-partitions of r using h colors with (at most) s repetitions where s can be any positive integer or 00 (to represent no restriction on repetitions). The proofs of these congruences were based on some interesting congruence properties of compositions and were combinatorial in nature. Though the proofs were straightforward, they were somewhat lengthy and tedious. During some recent work with colored F-partitions the following analytic proof of the above congruences was discovered. This alternate proof highlights yet another combinatorial property of these colored F-partitions. As was shown in each of the papers [2,3] the sum,

Congruences for Generalized Frobenius Partitions with an Arbitrarily Large Number of Colors

In his 1984 AMS Memoir, George Andrews defined the family of k–colored generalized Frobenius partition functions. These are enumerated by cφk(n) where k ≥ 1 is the number of colors in question. In that Memoir, Andrews proved (among many other things) that, for all n ≥ 0, cφ2(5n+3) ≡ 0 (mod 5). Soon after, many authors proved congruence properties for various k–colored generalized Frobenius part...

Computational Proofs of Congruences for 2-colored Frobenius Partitions

1. Background and introduction. In his 1984 Memoir of the American Mathematical Society, Andrews [2] introduced two families of partition functions, φk(m) and cφk(m), which he called generalized Frobenius partition functions. In this paper, we will focus our attention on one of these functions, namely cφ2(m), which denotes the number of generalized Frobenius partitions of m with 2 colors. In [2...

The Andrews–Sellers family of partition congruences

In 1994, James Sellers conjectured an infinite family of Ramanujan type congruences for 2-colored Frobenius partitions introduced by George E. Andrews. These congruences arise modulo powers of 5. In 2002 Dennis Eichhorn and Sellers were able to settle the conjecture for powers up to 4. In this article, we prove Sellers' conjecture for all powers of 5. In addition, we discuss why the Andrews-Sel...
