摘要
We study the numerator and denominator of a continued fraction R(a, b) of Ramanujan and establish the equality of various restricted partition functions. We use the continued fraction to give a unified approach to several partition identities some of which generalize results of Bressoud and Göllnitz. We also give a combinatorial interpretation for the coefficients in the power series expansion of the reciprocal 1 R(-a, -b), extending a result of Odlyzko and Wilf. © 1993 Academic Press, Inc.
