The (s,s+d,...,s+pd)-Core Partitions and Rational Motzkin Paths

Abstract. In this article, we propose an (s+d,d)-abacus for (s,s+d,...,s+pd)-core partitions and establish a bijection between (s,s+d,...,s+pd)-core partitions and rational Motzkin paths of type (s+d,-d). This result not only gives a lattice path interpretation of the (s,s+d,...,s+pd)-core partitions but also counts them with a closed formula. Also we enumerate (s,s+1,...,s+p)-core partitions with k corners and self-conjugate (s,s+1,...,s+p)-core partitions.
