Abstract

In 1980, Bressoud conjectured a combinatorial identity Aj=Bj for j=0 or 1. In this paper, we introduce a new partition function B0 which can be viewed as an overpartition analogue of the partition function B0. An overpartition is a partition such that the last occurrence of a part can be overlined. We build a bijection to get a relationship between B0 and B1, based on which an overpartition analogue of Bressoud's conjecture for j=0 is obtained.
