Judge–Zanello density-transfer conjecture for multipartition functions

For t1t\geq1, let pt(n)p_t(n) be the tt-multipartition function, and let δt\delta_t denote the density of those nn for which pt(n)p_t(n) is odd, when this limit exists. Density-transfer conjecture. (i) If there is an integer A±1(mod6)A\equiv\pm1\pmod6 with δA>0\delta_A>0, and δi\delta_i exists for every iAi\leq A satisfying i±1(mod6)i\equiv\pm1\pmod6, then δ1>0\delta_1>0. (ii) If there is an integer A3(mod6)A\equiv3\pmod6 with δA>0\delta_A>0, and δi\delta_i exists for every iAi\leq A satisfying i3(mod6)i\equiv3\pmod6, then δ3>0\delta_3>0.

This is a corollary of the Judge–Zanello congruence conjecture and asserts that positive odd density transfers from a suitable multipartition function to the partition function or cubic partition function. The paper proves this corollary unconditionally, so the conjecture is solved.
