초록

A celebrated result in the study of integer partitions is the identity due to Lehmer whereby the number of partitions of $n$ with an even number of even parts minus the number of partitions of $n$ with an odd number of even parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct odd parts. Inspired by Lehmer's identity, we prove explicit formulas for evaluating generating functions for sequences that enumerate integer partitions of fixed width with an even/odd number of even parts. We introduce a technique for decomposing the even entries of a partition in such a way so as to evaluate, using a finite sum over $q$-binomial coefficients, the generating function for the sequence of partitions with an even number of even parts of fixed, odd width, and similarly for the other families of fixed-width partitions that we introduce.

Abstract

A celebrated result in the study of integer partitions is the identity due to Lehmer whereby the number of partitions of $n$ with an even number of even parts minus the number of partitions of $n$ with an odd number of even parts equals the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct odd parts. Inspired by Lehmer's identity, we prove explicit formulas for evaluating generating functions for sequences that enumerate integer partitions of fixed width with an even/odd number of even parts. We introduce a technique for decomposing the even entries of a partition in such a way so as to evaluate, using a finite sum over $q$-binomial coefficients, the generating function for the sequence of partitions with an even number of even parts of fixed, odd width, and similarly for the other families of fixed-width partitions that we introduce.
