An inequality involving integer partitions
For integers $n\ge k\ge0$, let $p(n,k)$ denote the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of $k$ positive integers (repetition allowed). For example, $p(6,3)=3$ since
$$6=1+1+4=1+2+3=2+2+2.$$

Number of distinct higher dimensional integer partitions
By a distinct partition, I mean a partition into distinct parts, i.e., $10 = 5+4+1$ is one, but $10=6+2+2$ is not. The number of distinct partitions of $k$ all whose parts are at most $n$ is given by ...

Sequence which is related to the binary expansion of $n$ and partition numbers
Let $p(n)$ be A000041 i.e. the number of partitions of $n$ (the partition numbers).
Let
$$
\ell(n)=\left\lfloor\log_2 n\right\rfloor
$$
Let $\operatorname{wt}(n)$ be A000120 i.e. number of $1$'s in ...

Conjecture on numbers $k$ having only one partition into parts with same binary weight as a binary weight of $k$
Let $\operatorname{tr}(n)$ be A007814, number of trailing zeros in the binary representation of $n$.
Also, let $\operatorname{ntr}(n)$ be A086784, number of non-trailing zeros in the binary ...

Partition of $(2^{n+1}+1)2^{2^{n-1}+n-1}-1$ into parts with binary weight equals $2^{n-1}+n$
Let $\operatorname{wt}(n)$ be A000120, i.e., number of $1$'s in binary expansion of $n$ (or the binary weight of $n$).
Let $a(n,m)$ be the sequence of numbers $k$ such that $\operatorname{wt}(k)=m$. ...

Writing integers as sequences of products by 2 and integer divisions by 3
For any integer, we consider its decompositions into sequences of products by $2$ and integer division by $3$.
For instance:
$$
100 = 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \...

Source coding lexicographic index of finite alphabet sequence with weight (partitions)
My goal is to determine the lexicographic index of an $M$-ary $n$-sequence $\mathbf{x}$ on the subset with an $M$-weight sum constraint:
$$S = \{ \mathbf{x} \in \{0, \ldots, M-1\}^n: \sum_{j=1}^n x_j =...

Counting Bipartitions
Numerical evidence suggests that $p_2(n) \geq n p(n)$ for large $n$.
Here $p(n)$ is the number of partitions of $n$, and $p_2(n)$ is the number of bipartitions of $n$, i.e., ordered pairs of ...

Databases for sequences indexed by partitions
Is there a database for sequences indexed by partitions similar to Sloane's OEIS? I mean, I am aware that in the OEIS there are some arrays indexed by partitions, but I feel as though most of such ...

Classic question on integer partitions (with distinct summands)
I guess that the following was solved sometime in the 18th century, but could not find a reference to it. I am interested in approximations to the following integer partition problem:
Denote $R(N,L)$ ...
