Title: On the Parity of Generalized Frobenius Partitions
Abstract: Mathematicians have been studying numbers for as long as anyone could remember. One way in which they have been doing that is by studying different ways an integer could be "partitioned". An integer partition is loosely a way in which you can write this integer as a sum of other positive integers. This simple idea has created rich subfields of mathematics studying integer partitions and q-series. Many prominent mathematicians including (but not limited to) Ramanujan have produced wonderful results in this field. In this talk, we will look at a specific kind of integer partition, and "almost count" how many each integer could have.
