Partition functions, which enumerate the distinct ways a positive integer may be expressed as a sum of positive integers, have long captivated mathematicians due to their deep connections with number ...

A study led by researchers at North Carolina State University developed a new method that enables quantum computers to measure the thermodynamic properties of systems by calculating the zeros of the ...

In this paper we discuss efficient algorithms for computing the values of the partition function and implement these algorithms in order to conduct a numerical study of some conjectures related to the ...
