Congruences modulo small powers of 2 and 3 for partitions into odd designated summands
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 20 (2017) no. 4
Andrews, Lewis and Lovejoy introduced a new class of partitions, partitions with designated summands. Let $PD(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands and $PDO(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with designated summands in which all parts are odd. Andrews et al. established many congruences modulo 3 for $PDO(n)$ by using the theory of modular forms. Baruah and Ojah obtained numerous congruences modulo 3, 4, 8 and 16 for $PDO(n)$ by using theta function identities. In this paper, we prove several infinite families of congruences modulo 9, 16 and 32 for $PDO(n)$.
