A Proof of Sellers' Conjecture

Research output: Working paper and reportsPreprint

Abstract

In 1994 James Sellers conjectured an infinite family of Ramanujan type congruences for 2-colored Frobenius partitions introduced by George E. Andrews. These congruences arise modulo powers of 5. In 2002 Dennis Eichhorn and Sellers were able to settle the conjecture for powers up to 4. In this article we prove Sellers' conjecture for all powers of 5.
