Keith–Zanello's self-similarity conjecture for 19-regular partitions

At least 4 years old · documented by

Let b19(n)b_{19}(n) denote the number of partitions of nn with no parts divisible by 1919. For a prime p>3p>3, let b3b3 be the integer satisfying

γ≡−3⋅8−1(modp),0<γ<p,\gamma\equiv-3\cdot8^{-1}\pmod p,\qquad0<\gamma<p,

and set

δ=⌊3p8⌋.\delta=\left\lfloor\frac{3p}{8}\right\rfloor.

Keith–Zanello's self-similarity conjecture. For a positive proportion of primes pp, one has

∑n=0∞b19(2(pn+γ))qn≡qδ∑n=0∞b19(2n)qpn(mod2).\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}b_{19}(2(pn+\gamma))q^n\equiv q^\delta\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}b_{19}(2n)q^{pn}\pmod2.

This conjecture predicts a self-similarity in the parity of 19-regular partition numbers for a positive proportion of primes; the supplied source does not state whether it has been resolved.
