New infinite families of Ramanujan-type congruences modulo 9 for overpartition pairs

Ernest X. W. Xia (2015)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let p p ¯ ( n ) denote the number of overpartition pairs of n. Bringmann and Lovejoy (2008) proved that for n ≥ 0, p p ¯ ( 3 n + 2 ) 0 ( m o d 3 ) . They also proved that there are infinitely many Ramanujan-type congruences modulo every power of odd primes for p p ¯ ( n ) . Recently, Chen and Lin (2012) established some Ramanujan-type identities and explicit congruences for p p ¯ ( n ) . Furthermore, they also constructed infinite families of congruences for p p ¯ ( n ) modulo 3 and 5, and two congruence relations modulo 9. In this paper, we prove several new infinite...

On a conjecture of Sárközy and Szemerédi

Yong-Gao Chen (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

Two infinite sequences A and B of non-negative integers are called infinite additive complements if their sum contains all sufficiently large integers. In 1994, Sárközy and Szemerédi conjectured that there exist infinite additive complements A and B with lim sup A(x)B(x)/x ≤ 1 and A(x)B(x)-x = O(minA(x),B(x)), where A(x) and B(x) are the counting functions of A and B, respectively. We prove that, for infinite additive complements A and B, if lim sup A(x)B(x)/x ≤ 1, then, for any given M > 1,...
