Partition Theory

Partition theory is a fundamental area of number theory. It is concerned with the number of ways that a whole number can be partitioned into whole number parts.

5 for example can be partitioned in 7 ways thus:
11111, 2111, 221, 311, 32, 41, 5.
The permutations of these 7 partitions add up to 16 thus: 11111 =1 permutation 2111 =4 permutations 221 =3 permutations 311 =3 permutations 32 =2 permutations 41 =2 permutations 5 =1 permutation


A partition is a way of writing an integer n as a sum of positive integers where the order of the parts is not significant.

5, 7, 11 Congruences: Properties and Meanings

Starting with 4, the number of partitions for every 5th integer is a multiple of 5-eg the number of partitions for 9 is 30 and for 14 is 135.

Starting with 5, every 7th integer is a multiple of 7.

Starting with 6, every 11th integer is a multiple of 11.

Other Relationships: Properties and Meanings

Number of partitions of n into an even number of distinct parts equals the number of partitions of n into an odd number of distinct parts-except when n is a Pentagonal Number.(Franklin?)

Number of partitions of n into parts not divisible by 3>than the number of partitions of n into parts none of which occurs more than twice.

The number of odd partitions of n=the number of distinct partitions of n.

The total number of 1s that occur among all unordered partitions of a positive integer is equal to the sum of the numbers of distinct members of those partitions.
