| Title: | Infinitely Many Congruence for Broken 2-Diamond Partitions Modulo 3 |
| Seminar: | Combinatorics/Partitions Seminar |
| Speaker: | James Sellers, PSU |
| Abstract: |
| In 2007, Andrews and Paule introduced the family of functions Delta_k(n) which
enumerate the number of broken k-diamond partitions of n for a fixed positive integer k. Since then, numerous mathematicians have considered partitions congruences satisfied by Delta_ k(n) for small values of k. In this work, we focus our attention on the function Delta_2(n) and explicitly identify infinitely many Ramanujan-like congruences modulo 3 which are satisfied by this function. This is joint work with Silviu Radu, Research Institute for Symbolic Computation, Austria. |
