Some Congruence Properties of a Restricted Bipartition Function cN(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
