Two Families of Buffered Frobenius Representations of Overpartitions

Abstract

We generalize the generating series of the Dyson ranks and $M_2$-ranks of overpartitions to obtain $k$-fold variants, and give a combinatorial interpretation of each. The $k$-fold generating series correspond to the full ranks of two families of buffered Frobenius representations, which generalize Lovejoy's first and second Frobenius representations of overpartitions, respectively.
