XVI.—On Certain Numerical Coefficients Associated with Partitions

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 February 2012

Extract

§ 1. The principal object of this note is to establish formula (16) of the preceding paper by H. Jack (1966). This formula, which was conjectured by Jack, evaluates a certain coefficient which is attached to a symbol {p, q, …, r}. In this symbols, p, q, …, r form a partition of m such that o≤pq≤…≤r,p+q+…+r=m. The symbol however vanishes if any two of the integers p, q, … r are equal but non-zero. In the remaining cases we have to show that the coefficient in question has the value
