Title: Some New Partition Conjectures, and How One Might Prove Them
Speaker: Matthew Russell, Rutgers University

Location: Hill Center, Room 705, Rutgers University, Busch Campus, Piscataway, NJ
Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss some old and new partition conjectures, along with methods that will allow one to verify (for very many terms) these conjectures. Perhaps these methods will one day lead to a proof. Parts of the talk will be joint work with Shashank Kanade, other parts will be inspired by a recent talk of George Andrews.
