A Self-Conjugate Partition Analog of $(t,t+1)$-Core Partitions with Distinct Parts (2503.00896v1)

Abstract: Simultaneous core partitions have been widely studied in the past 20 years. In 2013, Amdeberhan gave several conjectures on the number, the average size, and the largest size of $(t,t+1)$-core partitions with distinct parts, which was proved and generalized by Straub, Xiong, Nath-Sellers, Zaleski-Zeilberger, Paramonov, and many other mathematicians. In this paper, we introduce a proper self-conjugate partition analog of $(t,t+1)$-core partitions with distinct parts, and derive the number, the average size, and the largest size for such core partitions.
