Partition functions, which enumerate the distinct ways a positive integer may be expressed as a sum of positive integers, have long captivated mathematicians due to their deep connections with number ...

A study led by researchers at North Carolina State University developed a new method that enables quantum computers to measure the thermodynamic properties of systems by calculating the zeros of the ...

Eighty years ago, Ramanujan conjectured and proved some striking congruences for the partition function modulo powers of 5, 7, and 11. Until recently, only a handful of further such congruences were ...
