COMMENTS

Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) := Prod_{k>=1} (1-(-q)^k) (see A121373), phi(q) := theta_3(q) := Sum_{k=-oo..oo} q^(k^2) (A000122), psi(q) := Sum_{k=0..oo} q^(k*(k+1)/2) (A10054), chi(q) := Prod_{k>=0} (1+q^(2k+1)) (A000700).

Let (a1,a2,a3,...ad:b1,b2,b3,...bd) be the Frobenius symbol for a partition pi of n. Then pi is m-close to being self-conjugate if for all k, |ak-bk| <= m.

FORMULA

Define the Dedekind eta function = q^1/24. Product(1-q^k), k >=1. Then the number of m-close partitions is q^(1/24).(m+2)^2/(1.(2m+4)) (where m denotes eta(q^m)).
