Résumé

In this paper we are concerned with partition functions pΥ(n) that have generating functions of the form where γ(n) ≧ 0. We shall obtain an asymptotic relation for pΥ(n) under suitable restrictions on Υ (see Theorem 1.1). These restrictions are weaker than those of Brigham [2] who considered this problem previously.
