Symmetry of \(k\)-marked Durfee symbols. (English) Zbl 1235.05015

Summary: Andrews introduced the \(k\)-marked Durfee symbols in his work defining a variant of the Atkin-Garvan moments of ranks. He provided and proved many identities and congruences using analytical methods. Here, we give an equivalent description of \(k\)-marked Durfee symbols, and using it we give combinatorial proofs to two results of Andrews.
