Abstract: | Motivated by a partition inequality of Bessenrodt and Ono, we obtain analogous inequalities for k-colored partition functions \(p_{-k}(n)\) for all \(k\ge 2\). This enables us to extend the k-colored partition function multiplicatively to a function on k-colored partitions and characterize when it has a unique maximum. We conclude with one conjectural inequality that strengthens our results. |
