Next, the steps for finding analogous formulas for certain restricted classes of partitions or overpartiitons is examined, bearing in mind how these calculations can be automated in a CAS. Finally, a number of new formulas of this type which were conjectured with the aid of \\emph{Mathematica} are presented along with results of a test for their numerical accuracy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-01-27T03:07:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "circle method", "automation", "hardy-ramanujan-rademacher formula", "partitions", "finding analogous formulas" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
