New methods are introduced here to show that if n is a quasiperfect number and u(n) the number of its distinct prime factors, then u(n) > 7 and n > 10 35 , and if further 3}« then u(n) > 9 and n > 1O 40 .
Abstract. Using the circle dissection method, a convergent series and several asymptotic formulae are obtained for p(n, t), the number of partitions of the positive integer n in which no part may be repeated more than t times.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
