In what follows all small Latin letters denote non-negative integers or functions whose values are non-negative integers. Let N = (n1, …, nj) be a j-dimensional vector and let q = q (k; N) = q(k; n1, …, nj) be the number of partitions of N into just k parts, each part being a vector whose components are non-negative integers. We write

for the generating function of q. We have
