On the distribution of a restricted parity excess

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let pe~(λ) be the restricted parity excess, which is the number of different odd parts minus the number of different even parts in the partition λ. We define a random variable Xn which takes value pe~(λ) while we choose λ uniformly at random from the set of partitions of n. Then, we show that Xn is asymptotically normally distributed.
