← Back to Domain-Specific Abstractions by Domain

2 domain-specific abstractions whose origin domain is Partition Theory.

  • Durfee square — The largest square contained in the Ferrers or Young diagram of an integer partition.
  • Rank of a partition — Associate an integer partition with Dyson's rank—largest part minus number of parts—while distinguishing the separate Durfee-square rank convention used elsewhere in combinatorics.
