language = {english},
abstract = {Recently, Li (Int. J. Number Theory 2020) obtained an asymptotic formula for a certain partial sum involving coefficients for the polynomial in the First Borwein conjecture. As a consequence, he showed the positivity of this sum. His result was based on a sieving principle discovered by himself and Wan (Sci. China. Math. 2010). In fact, Li points out in his paper that his method can be generalized to prove an asymptotic formula for a general partial sum involving coefficients for any prime $p>3$. In this work, we extend Li's method to obtain asymptotic formula for several partial sums of coefficients of a very general polynomial. We find that in the special cases $p=3, 5$, the signs of these sums are consistent with the three famous Borwein conjectures. Similar sums have been studied earlier by Zaharescu (Ramanujan J. 2006) using a completely different method. We also improve on the error terms in the asymptotic formula for Li and Zaharescu. Using a recent result of Borwein (JNT 1993), we also obtain an asymptotic estimate for the maximum of the absolute value of these coefficients for primes $p=2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13$ and for $p>15$, we obtain a lower bound on the maximum absolute value of these coefficients for sufficiently large $n$.},

title = {{Some formulae for coefficients in restricted $q$-products}},
language = {english},
abstract = {In this paper, we derive some formulae involving coefficients of polynomials which occur quite naturally in the study of restricted partitions. Our method involves a recently discovered sieve technique by Li and Wan (Sci. China. Math. 2010). Based on this method, by considering cyclic groups of different orders we obtain some new results for these coefficients. The general result (see Theorem \ref{main00}) holds for any group of the form $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ where $N\in\mathbb{N}$ and expresses certain partial sums of coefficients in terms of expressions involving roots of unity. By specializing $N$ to different values, we see that these expressions simplify in some cases and we obtain several nice identities involving these coefficients. We also use a result of Sudler (Quarterly J. Math. 1964) to obtain an asymptotic formula for the maximum absolute value of these coefficients.},

### On the parity of some partition functions

@techreport{RISC6112,
author = {Ankush Goswami and Abhash Kumar Jha},
title = {{On the parity of some partition functions}},
language = {english},
abstract = {Recently, Andrews carried out a thorough investigation of integer partitions in which all parts of a given parity are smaller than those of the opposite parity. Further, considering a subset of this set of partitions, he obtains several interesting arithmetic and combinatorial properties and its connections to the third order mock theta function $\nu(q)$. In fact, he shows the existence of a Dyson-type crank that explains a mod $5$ congruence in this subset. At the end of his paper, one of the problems he poses is to undertake a more extensive investigation on the properties of the subset of partitions. Since then there have been several investigations in various ways, including works of Jennings-Shaffer and Bringmann (Ann. Comb. 2019), Barman and Ray (2019), and Uncu (2019). In this paper, we study certain congruences satisfied by the above set of partitions (and the subset above) along with a certain subset of partitions (of Andrews' partitions above) studied by Uncu and also establish a connection between one of Andrews' partition function above with $p(n)$, the number of unrestricted partitions of $n$. Besides, we provide a combinatorial description of Uncu's partition function. },
