Abstract

This paper shows that the coefficient of x in the right hand side of the equation is an algebraic relation in terms of z. The exponent of z represents the crank of partitions of a positive integral value of n and also shows that the sum of weights of corresponding partitions of n is the sum of ordinary partitions of n and it is equal to the number of partitions of n with crank m. This paper shows how to prove the Theorem “The number of partitions π of n with crank C(π)=m is M(m,n) for all n>1.”

1. Introduction

First we give definitions of , the crank of partitions, , , and . We generate some generating functions related to the crank and show the coefficient of x is the algebraic relations in terms of various powers of z, the exponent of z represent the crank of partitions of n (for all ). We show the results with the help of examples when n = 5 and 6 respectively. We introduce the special term weight related to the vector partitions V and show the relations in terms of , weight and crank . We prove the Theorem “The number of partitions of n with crank is for all .”

2. Definitions

Now we give some definitions following ([3, 4, 5]).

: Number of partitions of n, like 4, 3+1, 2+2, 2+1+1, 1+1+1+1. Therefore, and similarlyetc.

Crank of partitions [2]: For a partition , let denotes the largest part of , denote the number of 1’s in , and denote the number of parts of larger than , the crank is given by;

: The number of partitions of n with crank m.

2.1. Notations

For all integers and all integers m, the number of n with crank equal to m is , like;

But we see that;

Since, the coefficient of x in the right hand side of the equation;

is i.e., the exponent of z being the crank of partition.

Therefore,

3. The Generating Function for

The generating function for is given by [2];

(1)

We see that the exponent of z represents the crank of partitions of n (for ). As for examples when n = 5 and 6,

For n = 5,

For n = 6,

4. Vector Partitions of n

Let, , where D denotes the set of partitions into distinct parts and P denotes the set of partitions. The set of vector partitions V is defined by the Cartesian product, .

For , where weight = , the crank .

We have 41 vector partitions of 4 are given in the following table:

From the above table we have,

and

1–1= 0

i.e., =

i.e.,

Again we have 83 vector partitions of 5 are given in the following table:

From this table we have;

1–1–1–1–1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1–1–1–1 =1

1–1–1–1–1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1–1–1–1 =1

1+1–1–1–1–1+1+1+1–1= 0

1+1–1–1–1–1+1+1+1–1= 0

1+1–1–1+1= 1

1+1–1–1+1= 1

1–1= 0

1–1= 0

1

1

;

i.e., = 7

i.e., = .

From above discussion we get;

Theorem: The number of partitions of n with crank is for all .

Proof: The generating function for is given by;

(2)

Now we distribute the function into two parts where first one represents the crank with and second one represents the crank with .

The first function is;

Counts (for ) the number of partitions with no 1’s and the exponent on z being the largest part of the partition where , like;

Here n = 4, the 5th term is .

Again second partition is,

which counts the number of partitions with and the exponent on z is clearly , since , like;

Here n = 4, the 5th term is i.e., .

Thus in the double series expansion of , we see that the coefficient of is the number of partitions of n in which . Equating the coefficient of from both sides in (2) we get the number of partitions of n with is for all . Hence the Theorem.

5. Conclusion

We have verified that the coefficient of x in the right hand side of the generating function for is an explanation of z, the exponents of z represent the crank of partitions, it is already shown with examples for n = 5 and 6. We have satisfied the result = , it is already shown when n = 4 and 5 respectively. For any positive integer of n we can verify the corresponding Theorem. We have already satisfied the Theorem for n = 4 and 5.
