-rank differences for partitions without repeated odd parts
We prove formulas for the generating functions for -rank differences for partitions without repeated odd parts. These formulas are in terms of modular forms and generalized Lambert series.

We give a graph theoretic interpretation of -Lah numbers, namely, we show that the -Lah number counting the number of -partitions of an -element set into ordered blocks is just equal to the number of matchings consisting of edges in the complete bipartite graph with partite sets of cardinality and (, ). We present five independent proofs including a direct, bijective one. Finally, we close our work with a similar result for -Stirling numbers of the second kind.
