In number theory , Glaisher s theorem is an identity useful to the study of integer partition s. It is named for James Whitbread Lee Glaisher . It states that the number of integer partition partitions of an integer math N math into parts not divisible by math d math is equal to the number of partitions of the form math N N 1 cdots N k math where math N i geq N i 1 math and math N i geq N i d 1 1, math that is, partitions in which no part is repeated d or more times. When math d 2 math this becomes the special case, known as Euler s theorem, that the number of partitions of math N math into distinct parts is the same as the number of partitions of math N math into odd parts. Similar theorems If instead of counting the number of partitions with distinct parts, we count the number of partitions with parts differing by at least 2, theorem similar to Euler s theorem known as Rogers theorem after Leonard James Rogers is obtained The number of partitions whose parts differ by at least 2 is equal to the number of partitions involving only number congruent to 1 or 4 mod 5 . For example, there are 6 partitions of 10 into parts differing by at least 2, namely 10, 9 1, 8 2, 7 3, 6 4, 6 3 1 and 6 partitions of 10 involving only 1, 4, 6, 9 ..., namely 9 1, 6 4, 6 1 1 1 1, 4 4 1 1, 4 1 1 1 1 1 1, 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1. The theorem was discovered independently by Issai Schur Schur and Srinivasa Ramanujan Ramanujan . References cite journal author D.H.

In mathematics , the Glaisher Kinkelin constant or Glaisher s constant , typically denoted A , is a mathematical constant , related to the K function and the Barnes G function . The constant appears in a number of sum s and integral s, especially those involving Gamma function s and zeta function s. It is named after mathematician s James Whitbread Lee Glaisher and Hermann Kinkelin . Its approximate value is math A approx1.2824271291 dots math The Glaisher Kinkelin constant math A math can be given by the limit math A lim n rightarrow infty frac K n 1 n n 2 2 n 2 1 12 e n 2 4 math where math K n prod k 1 n 1 k k math is the K function .
