Abstract
Let cÏk(n) be the number of k-colored generalized Frobenius partitions of n. We establish some infinite families of congruences for cÏ3(n) and cÏ9(n) modulo arbitrary powers of 3, which refine the results of Kolitsch. For example, for kâ¥3 and nâ¥0, we prove that cÏ3(32kn+7â
32k+18)â¡0(mod34k+5).We give two different proofs to the congruences satisfied by cÏ9(n). One of the proofs uses a relation between cÏ9(n) and cÏ3(n) due to Kolitsch, for which we provide a new proof in this paper.
