In a recent paper, Sun posed six conjectures on the relations between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the number of representations of [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] are positive integers, [Formula: see text] are arbitrary nonnegative integers, and [Formula: see text] denotes the number of representations of [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text], where this time [Formula: see text] are integers. In this paper, we prove Sun’s six conjectures by using Ramanujan’s theta function identities.

For positive integers [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] denote the number of representations of a nonnegative integer [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are nonnegative integers, and let [Formula: see text] denote the number of representations of [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are integers. Recently, Sun proved a number of relations between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] along with numerous conjectures on such relations. In this work, we confirm several conjectures of Sun by using Ramanujan’s theta function identities.

Let $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb{Z}^{+}$ be the set of integers and the set of positive integers, respectively. For $a,b,c,d,n\in \mathbb{Z}^{+}$, let $t(a,b,c,d;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $\frac{1}{2}ax(x+1)+\frac{1}{2}by(y+1)+\frac{1}{2}cz(z+1)+\frac{1}{2}dw(w+1)$ with $x,y,z,w\in \mathbb{Z}$. Using theta function identities we prove 13 transformation formulas for $t(a,b,c,d;n)$ and evaluate $t(2,3,3,8;n)$, $t(1,1,6,24;n)$ and $t(1,1,6,8;n)$.

Let cN(n) denote the number of bipartitions (λ,μ) of a positive integer n subject to the restriction that each part of μ is divisible by N. In this paper, we prove some congruence properties of the function cN(n) for N=7, 11, and 5l, for any integer l≥1, by employing Ramanujan’s theta-function identities.

Let [Formula: see text] denote the number of partitions of a non-negative integer into distinct (or, odd) parts. We find exact generating functions for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We deduce some congruences modulo 5 and 25. We employ Ramanujan’s theta function identities and some identities for the Rogers–Ramanujan continued fraction.

Triangular numbers have been of interest and continuously studied due to their beautiful representations, nice properties, and various links with other figurate numbers. For positive integers n and l, the nth l-isosceles triangular number is a generalization of triangular numbers defined to be the arithmetic sum of the formT(n, l) = 1 + (1 + l) + (1 + 2l) + · · · + (1 + (n − 1)l).In this paper, we focus on characterizations and identities for isosceles triangular numbers as well as their links with other figurate numbers. Recursive formulas for constructions of isosceles triangular numbers are given together with necessary and sufficient conditions for a positive integer to be a sum of isosceles triangular  numbers. Various identities for isosceles triangular numbers are established. Results on triangular numbers can be viewed as a special case.
