In order to provide a unified combinatorial interpretation of congruences modulo $5$ for 2-colored partition functions, Garvan introduced a bicrank statistic in terms of weighted vector partitions. In this paper, we obtain some inequalities between the bicrank counts $M^{*}(r,m,n)$ for $m=2$, $3$ and $4$ via their asymptotic formulas and some $q$-series techniques. These inequalities are parallel to Andrews and Lewis results on the rank and crank counts for ordinary partitions.

Inspired by Andrews 2-colored generalized Frobenius partitions, we consider certain weighted 7-colored partition functions and establish some interesting Ramanujan-type identities and congruences. Moreover, we provide combinatorial interpretations of some congruences modulo 5 and 7. Finally, we study the properties of weighted 7-colored partitions weighted by the parity of certain partition statistics.
Motivated by a partition inequality of Bessenrodt and Ono, we obtain analogous inequalities for $k$-colored partition functions $p_{-k}(n)$ for all $kgeq2$. This enables us to extend the $k$-colored partition function multiplicatively to a function on $k$-colored partitions, and characterize when it has a unique maximum. We conclude with one conjectural inequality that strengthens our results.
The Tur{a}n inequalities and the higher order Tur{a}n inequalities arise in the study of Maclaurin coefficients of an entire function in the Laguerre-P{o}lya class. A real sequence ${a_{n}}$ is said to satisfy the Tur{a}n inequalities if for $ngeq 1$, $a_n^2-a_{n-1}a_{n+1}geq 0$. It is said to satisfy the higher order Tur{a}n inequalities if for $ngeq 1$, $4(a_{n}^2-a_{n-1}a_{n+1})(a_{n+1}^2-a_{n}a_{n+2})-(a_{n}a_{n+1}-a_{n-1}a_{n+2})^2geq 0$. A sequence satisfying the Turan inequalities is also called log-concave. For the partition function $p(n)$, DeSalvo and Pak showed that for $n>25$, the sequence ${ p(n)}_{n> 25}$ is log-concave, that is, $p(n)^2-p(n-1)p(n+1)>0$ for $n> 25$. It was conjectured by Chen that $p(n)$ satisfies the higher order Tur{a}n inequalities for $ngeq 95$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture by using the Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher formula to derive an upper bound and a lower bound for $p(n+1)p(n-1)/p(n)^2$. Consequently, for $ngeq 95$, the Jensen polynomials $g_{3,n-1}(x)=p(n-1)+3p(n)x+3p(n+1)x^2+p(n+2)x^3$ have only real zeros. We conjecture that for any positive integer $mgeq 4$ there exists an integer $N(m)$ such that for $ngeq N(m) $, the polynomials $sum_{k=0}^m {mchoose k}p(n+k)x^k$ have only real zeros. This conjecture was independently posed by Ono.
Let $p_{-k}(n)$ enumerate the number of $k$-colored partitions of $n$. In this paper, we establish some infinite families of congruences modulo 25 for $k$-colored partitions. Furthermore, we prove some infinite families of Ramanujan-type congruences modulo powers of 5 for $p_{-k}(n)$ with $k=2, 6$, and $7$. For example, for all integers $ngeq0$ and $alphageq1$, we prove that begin{align*} p_{-2}left(5^{2alpha-1}n+dfrac{7times5^{2alpha-1}+1}{12}right) &equiv0pmod{5^{alpha}} end{align*} and begin{align*} p_{-2}left(5^{2alpha}n+dfrac{11times5^{2alpha}+1}{12}right) &equiv0pmod{5^{alpha+1}}. end{align*}
A generalized crank ($k$-crank) for $k$-colored partitions is introduced. Following the work of Andrews-Lewis and Ji-Zhao, we derive two results for this newly defined $k$-crank. Namely, we first obtain some inequalities between the $k$-crank counts $M_{k}(r,m,n)$ for $m=2,3$ and $4$, then we prove the positivity of symmetrized even $k$-crank moments weighted by the parity for $k=2$ and $3$. We conclude with several remarks on furthering the study initiated here.
