  2. Integer partition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_partition

    Such a partition is called a partition with distinct parts. If we count the partitions of 8 with distinct parts, we also obtain 6: 8; 7 + 1; 6 + 2; 5 + 3; 5 + 2 + 1; 4 + 3 + 1; This is a general property. For each positive number, the number of partitions with odd parts equals the number of partitions with distinct parts, denoted by q(n).

  3. Partition function (number theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function_(number...

    The values (), …, of the partition function (1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 15, and 22) can be determined by counting the Young diagrams for the partitions of the numbers from 1 to 8. In number theory, the partition function p(n) represents the number of possible partitions of a non-negative integer n.

  4. Triangle of partition numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangle_of_partition_numbers

    Their numbers can be arranged into a triangle, the triangle of partition numbers, in which the th row gives the partition numbers (), (), …, (): [1] k n

  5. Bell number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_number

    The Stirling number {} is the number of ways to partition a set of cardinality n into exactly k nonempty subsets. Thus, in the equation relating the Bell numbers to the Stirling numbers, each partition counted on the left hand side of the equation is counted in exactly one of the terms of the sum on the right hand side, the one for which k is ...

  6. Bell triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_triangle

    The Bell numbers themselves, on the left and right sides of the triangle, count the number of ways of partitioning a finite set into subsets, or equivalently the number of equivalence relations on the set. Sun & Wu (2011) provide the following combinatorial interpretation of each value in the triangle.

  7. Partition problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_problem

    Greedy number partitioning – loops over the numbers, and puts each number in the set whose current sum is smallest. If the numbers are not sorted, then the runtime is O( n ) and the approximation ratio is at most 3/2 ("approximation ratio" means the larger sum in the algorithm output, divided by the larger sum in an optimal partition).

  8. Largest differencing method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_differencing_method

    This solution is not optimal; a better partitioning is provided by the grouping ({5,5},{3,3,4},{1,4,5}). There is evidence for the good performance of LDM: [ 2 ] Simulation experiments show that, when the numbers are uniformly random in [0,1], LDM always performs better (i.e., produces a partition with a smaller largest sum) than greedy number ...

  9. Multiway number partitioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_number_partitioning

    The partition problem - a special case of multiway number partitioning in which the number of subsets is 2. The 3-partition problem - a different and harder problem, in which the number of subsets is not considered a fixed parameter, but is determined by the input (the number of sets is the number of integers divided by 3).
