By which scheme should I add the elements in series $(\sum n^{-2})^2$ and $\sum n^{-4}$ to show their rational equivalence?

We know that $\sum n^{-2}=\frac{1}{1^2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\dots=\frac{\pi^2}{6}$ and $\sum n^{-4}=\frac{1}{1^4}+\frac{1}{2^4}+\frac{1}{3^4}+\dots=\frac{\pi^4}{90}$ from "high mathematics" ...

Algorithm to find the distinct representations of the integer $n$ as a sum of $k$ non-negative p^(th) integer powers.

I am a user of Wolfram Mathematica and in that software there is a function called: PowersRepresentations. This function returns lists of integers $0\le n_1\le n_2\le\dots\le n_k$ such that $n_1^p+n_2^...

Notation for "factorials" of integer partitions?

Let $\lambda = (\lambda_1, \lambda_2, \ldots, \lambda_k)$ be a partition of $n $, $\lambda_1 \geq \lambda_2 \geq \cdots \geq \lambda_k > 0$. Is there accepted notation (e.g. in the literature) for ...

Count the number of ways n different-sided dice can add up to a given number

I am trying to find a way to count the number of ways n different-sided dice can add up to a given number. For example, 2 dice, 4- and 6-sided, can add up to 8 in 3 different ways: ($(2,6),(3,5),(4,4)...

Find minimum integer such that any integer \in [1, n] can be constructed from its consequent subsums

For example, here's (SPOILERS) breakdown for $1143$, which is the solution for $n = 9$ $\underline{1}143$ $\underline{11}43$ $114\underline{3}$ $11\underline{4}3$ $1\underline{14}3$ $\underline{114}3$...
