3 divides coefficents of this $q$-series

Denote $\phi(q):=\prod_{j\geq1}(1-q^j)$ and let $\xi=e^{\frac{2\pi i}3}$ be a cube root of unity. Define the sequence $u(n)$ by $$\prod_{n\geq1}\prod_{s=1}^2(1-q^n\xi^{ns})(1-q^{2n}\xi^{ns}) =\sum_{n\...

Partition numbers as the specific sums of the A161511

Let $p(n)$ be A000041 i.e. number of partitions of $n$ (the partition numbers). Let $$ \ell(n)=\left\lfloor\log_2 n\right\rfloor $$ Let $a(n)$ be A161511 i.e. number of $1\cdots0$ pairs in the ...

Closed-form for the number of partitions of $n$ avoiding the partition $(4,3,1)$

Let $a(n)$ be A309099 i.e. the number of partitions of $n$ avoiding the partition $(4,3,1)$. We say a partition $\alpha$ contains $\mu$ provided that one can delete rows and columns from (the Ferrers ...

Pretty simple recursion for the A290383

Let $a(n)$ be A290383 i.e. number of set partitions of $[n]$ such that the smallest element of each block is odd. Here $$ a(n)=b(n,0,0) $$ where $$ b(n,m,t)=\sum\limits_{j=1}^{m-t+1}b(n-1,\max(m,j),1-...

Recursion for the number of partitions of $m^n-1$ into powers of $m$

Let $a(n,m)$ be the number of partitions of $m^n-1$ into powers of $m$. In other words, $$a(n,m)=[z^{m^n-1}] \prod\limits_{k\geqslant 0} \frac{1}{1-z^{m^k}}$$ Let $$ R(n,m,q)=\sum\limits_{j=0}^{m(q+1)-...

Are the numbers $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1{p(n)}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1{q(n)}$ transcendental?

For each positive integer $n$, let $p(n)$ be the number of partitions of $n$ (i.e., the number of ways to write $n$ as a sum of positive integers), and let $q(n)$ be the number of strict partitions of ...

Prime numbers and number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts with boundary size $2$

Let $a(n)$ be A227559, i.e., number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts with boundary size $2$. Be careful here: offset is $3$. I conjecture that $a(4n+2)=2n+1$ for $n>0$ if and only if $2n+1$ ...

Is there a connection between the sequence of a finite number of Stieltjes constants and the integer partitions number?

Lehmer 1988 and Keiper 1992 made major progress on evaluating the series: $$\sigma_r = \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \left( \frac{1}{\rho_k^r} + \frac{1}{(1-\rho_k)^r}\right) \quad r \in \mathbb{N}$$ where $\...
