In number theory , Glaisher s theorem is an identity useful to the study of integer partition s. It is named for James Whitbread Lee Glaisher . It states that the number of integer partition partitions of an integer math N math into parts not divisible by math d math is equal to the number of partitions of the form math N N 1 cdots N k math where math N i geq N i 1 math and math N i geq N i d 1 1, math that is, partitions in which no part is repeated d or more times.

In mathematics , the Glaisher Kinkelin constant or Glaisher s constant , typically denoted A , is a mathematical constant , related to the K function and the Barnes G function . The constant appears in a number of sum s and integral s, especially those involving Gamma function s and zeta function s. It is named after mathematician s James Whitbread Lee Glaisher and Hermann Kinkelin . The constant can be defined as math A e frac 1 12 zeta 1 1.28242712 dots , math OEIS id A074962 , where denotes the Riemann zeta function and is its derivative. It also satisfies math A lim n rightarrow infty frac e n 2 4 prod k 1 n k k n 6n 2 6n 1 12 , math where math prod k 1 n k k K n 1 , math is the K function .
