A multiplicative plane partition is a two-dimensional array of positive integers larger than 1 that are nonincreasing both from left to right and top to bottom and whose multiple is a given number n. For a natural number n, let $f_2(n)$ be the number of multiplicative plane partitions of n. In this paper, we prove $f_2(n)\;{\leq}\;n^2$ and a table of them up to $10^5$ is provided.

For a positive integer n, let μd(n) be the number of multiplicative d-dimensional partitions of ${\prod\limits_{i=1}^{n}}p_i$, where pi denotes the ith prime. The number of multiplicative partitions of a square free number with n prime factors is the Bell number μ1(n) = ��n. By the definition of the function μd(n), it can be seen that for all positive integers n, μ1(n) = Tn(1) = ��n, where Tn(x) is the nth Touchard (or exponential ) polynomial. We show that, for a positive n, μ2(n) = 2nTn(1/2). We also conjecture that for all m, μ3(m) ≤ 3mTm(1/3).

A partition of n is called a t-core partition if none of its hook number is divisible by t. In 2019, Hirschhorn and Sellers [5] obtained a parity result for 3-core partition function a3(n). Motivated by this result, both the authors [8] recently proved that for a non-negative integer α, a3αm(n) is almost always divisible by an arbitrary power of 2 and 3 and at(n) is almost always divisible by an arbitrary power of pji, where j is a fixed positive integer and t = pa11pa22···pamm with primes pi ≥ 5. In this article, by using Hecke eigenform theory, we obtain infinite families of congruences and multiplicative identities for a2(n) and a13(n) modulo 2 which generalizes some results of Das [2].
