Further information

Abstract: During his lifetime, Ramanujan made many beautiful
discoveries ranging from elegant identities and formulas
to work which influences modern number theory. In this
talk, we discuss his work on the arithmetic of the ordinary
partition function, Dyson's rank, and a generalization of partitions
called overpartitions. This is joint work with Jeremy Lovejoy (Paris).
