In mathematics, Ramanujan's congruences are the congruences for the partition function p(n) discovered by Srinivasa Ramanujan: (+) (), (+) (), (+) ().In plain words, e.g., the first congruence means that If a number is 4 more than a multiple of 5, i.e. it is in the sequence
Srinivasa Ramanujan first discovered that the partition function has nontrivial patterns in modular arithmetic, now known as Ramanujan's congruences. For instance, whenever the decimal representation of n ends in the digit 4 or 9, the number of partitions of n will be divisible by 5.
Let n be a non-negative integer and let p(n) denote the number of partitions of n (p(0) is defined to be 1).Srinivasa Ramanujan in a paper [3] published in 1918 stated and proved the following congruences for the partition function p(n), since known as Ramanujan congruences.
The more general Ramanujan–Petersson conjecture for holomorphic cusp forms in the theory of elliptic modular forms for congruence subgroups has a similar formulation, with exponent (k − 1)/2 where k is the weight of the form.
It was presented in the context of a study of certain congruence properties of the partition function discovered by the Indian mathematical genius Srinivasa Ramanujan. A different concept, sharing the same name, is used in combinatorics, where the rank is taken to be the size of the Durfee square of the partition.
Srinivasa Ramanujan discovered that the partition function has nontrivial patterns in modular arithmetic, now known as Ramanujan's congruences. For instance, whenever the decimal representation of n {\displaystyle n} ends in the digit 4 or 9, the number of partitions of n {\displaystyle n} will be divisible by 5.
In mathematics, the Rogers–Ramanujan identities are two identities related to basic hypergeometric series and integer partitions.The identities were first discovered and proved by Leonard James Rogers (), and were subsequently rediscovered (without a proof) by Srinivasa Ramanujan some time before 1913.
