Lots and Lots of Ramanujan-Style Congruence miracles and Lots and Lots of new Integer Sequences for the OEIS By John Chiarelli, Rebecca Coulson, Bryan Ek, Keith Frankston, Alejandro Gin\ ory, Emily Kukura, Andrew Lohr, Jinyoung Park, Ali Rostami, Xukai Yan, Mingjia Y\ ang and Anthony Zaleski Recall that p(n) is the number of integer-patitions of the integer n Leohanrd Euler famously proved that these are the coefficients of infinity --------' ' | | 1 | | ------ | | i | | 1 - q i = 1 Srinivasa Ramanujan famously proved that 1/5 p(5 n + 4), 1/7 p(7 n + 5), 1/11 p(11 n + 6) are all integers. These integer sequences are already in the OEIS. These amazing facts also led to the question, first raised by Freeman Dyson, to give combinatorial explanations. This was answered by Frank Garvan, and George Andrews. In this article we will state many new such congruences for the more general sequences defined by infinity --------' i r ' | | (1 + q ) | | --------- | | i s | | (1 - q ) i = 1 for r from 0 to , 3, and for s from 0 to, 3, except the trivial case r=s=0 and also supply the first, 20, terms of many new sequences for the OEIS. Each theorem also raises an intriguing challenge to prove it combinatorially by finding a way to partition the counted set into subsets with the same car\ dinality. n Let's call, c[r, s](n), the coefficient of, q , in this product. Note that these also have natural combinatorial meanings. For example The case r=1, s=1 counts so-called overpartitions. We don't bother with the proofs, since for the case r=0 it was shown by Dennis Eichhorn and Ken Ono, in their interesting paper Congruences for partition functions Proceedings for a Conference in Honor of Heini Halbertstam 1, 1996, pp, 309\ -321 available from http://www.mathcs.emory.edu/~ono/publications-cv/pdfs/013.pdf\ that one can easily determine an N_0 such that the theorem is true if it is \ checked for n<=N0. It turns out that the N_0 are usually rather small, and since we \ check it for many values of n, and we know that there exists a rigorous proof, we don\ 't bother to actually prove it. n Theorem Number , 1, Let , c[0, 1](n), be the coefficient of, q in the power series of infinity --------' ' | | 1 | | ------ | | i | | 1 -
