Wilf's conjecture: complementary Bell numbers
The complementary Bell numbers or Uppuluri–Carpenter numbers, denoted $\tilde{B}_n$, can be delivered by
$$G(x):=\sum_{n\geq0}\tilde{B}_n\frac{x^n}{n!}=e^{1-e^x}.$$
Definition. Fix an integer $m\geq0$....

Efficient listing of ASMs
Famously, the alternating sign matrix theorem gives a product formula for the number $a(n)$ of ASMs of size $n$. There are multiple proofs of this formula, all somewhat involved. My question is ...

Factoring a function from a finite set to itself
Let $S$ be a finite set and $f: S \to S$ be a function. Let $k = |f(S)|$ and let $\alpha$ be the partition of $S$ into $f$-fibers, i.e. $\alpha = \{ \alpha_t \}_{t \in f(S)}$ where $\alpha_t = f^{-1}(\...

Identity for classes of plane partitions
There are several classes of plane partitions in the literature.
Among these, let's look at the enumeration of three of them: the symmetric (SPP), totally symmetric (TSPP) and totally symmetric and ...

Sum $f(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_k) 1^{n_1} 2^{n_2} \ldots k^{n_k}$ over partitions
Use the notation $(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_k) \vdash n$ to denote that $(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_k)$ is a partition of the positive integer $n$, that is, $n_1+n_2+\ldots+n_k = n$ and $n_1 \ge n_2 \ge \ldots \ge n_k ...

Non-crossing and crossing bijection in higher genus
This is a follow-up question of my SO post I'll briefly mention it here.
So given a $n$ cycle say $(1,2,\ldots,n)$, what are the monotonic 2 -tuples, of the form $(a,b)(c,d)$, monotonicity in on the ...

Number of partitions of a number which don't include 1
I'm looking for two things.
One is an asymptotic formula for the number of partitions (number of ways of writing an integer as a sum of smaller positive integers) with the condition that 2 is the ...

Dimension of a certain space of symmetric functions: Part I
Let $s_{\lambda}$ denote the Schur polynomial associated to a partition $\lambda$. A partition $\lambda$ is called a $t$-core if none of its hook lengths are multiples of $t$.
QUESTION. Consider the ...

Number of partitions of set restricted by sum of square of part size
Let $p_1^{a_1}p_2^{a_2}\cdots$ denotes the integer partition of $n$, i.e. $a_1p_1+a_2p_2+\cdots=n$. Or equivalently $m_1+m_2+\cdots=n$. It is known that the number of partitions of set $\{x_1,x_2,\...

Counting integer partitions below some Young diagram
Question: Given positive, coprime integers $m<n$, consider the Young diagram $Y$ formed by the lattice points in the Cartesian plane lying below the line from $(0,0)$ to $(m,n)$ and within the ...

Enumerating multi-core binary partitions
An integer partition $\lambda$ of $n$ is called a binary partition provided that its parts are powers of $2$ (dyadic). Example: Let $n=3$. The binary partitions are $\lambda=(2,1)$ and $\lambda=(1,1)$ ...

Partitions of n into k distinct parts which are multiples of given numbers
Is there anything known about the number of partitions of an integer $n$ into $k$ distinct parts in the following way?
Let $a_1,\dotsc,a_k\geqslant1$ be given integers. In how many ways can we write $...

Skewed plane partition with only row fillings reversed
The number of plane partitions in a bounded box is well-studied and dates back to MacMahon, at the start of this paper by Sam Hopkins and Tri Lai, p9, they summarized current results on the ...

Ordered combinatorial classes and partitions
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a combinatorial class and let $\leq$ be a partial order on $\mathcal{C}$. We say that $(\mathcal{C},\leq)$ is an ordered combinatorial class if for all $x,y\in\mathcal{C}$, $$x&...

Generalizing "partition into odd parts=partition into distinct parts"?
The number of partitions into distinct parts is known to agree with the number of partitions with odd parts. For instance, this follows from
$$\prod_{k=1}^{\infty}(1+q^k)=\prod_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac1{1-...

Sum of square of parts, and sum of binomials over integer partition
Let $n$ be positive integer. Consider its integer partitions denoting as $(m_1,\cdots,m_k)$, where $m_1+\cdots+m_k=n$ and the order does not matter. We ignore the case of $(m_1,\cdots,m_k)=n$.
I am ...

Objects equinumerous with $3$-ary partitions?
There is a concept of the so-called RP-compositions of an integer discussed by K. Q. Ji and H. S. Wilf in Extreme palindromes. They proved the following result too:
Theorem. The number of RP-...
