Asymptotic formulas for general colored partition functions

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

In 1917, Hardy and Ramanujan obtained the asymptotic formula for the classical partition function p(n)p(n). The classical partition function p(n)p(n) has been extensively studied. Recently, Luca and Ralaivaosaona obtained the asymptotic formula for the square-root function. Many mathematicians have paid much attention to congruences on some special colored partition functions. In this paper, we investigate the general colored partition functions. Given positive integers 1=s1<s2<⋯<sk1=s_1<s_2<\dots <s_k and ℓ1,ℓ2,…,ℓk\ell_1, \ell_2,\dots , \ell_k. Let g(s,l,n)g(\mathbf{s}, \mathbf{l}, n) be the number of ℓ\ell-colored partitions of nn with ℓi\ell_i of the colors appearing only in multiplies of si (1≤i≤k)s_i\ (1\le i\le k), where ℓ=ℓ1+⋯+ℓk\ell = \ell_1+\cdots +\ell_k. By using the elementary method we obtain an asymptotic formula for the partition function g(s,l,n)g(\mathbf{s}, \mathbf{l}, n) with an explicit error term.
