      The generalized divisor function is defined by \(\sigma_s(n)=\sum_{d|n}d^s\). A convolution of length two given by the sum \(\sum_{m=1}^{v-1}\sigma_k(m)\sigma_\ell(v-m)\). In the paper under review the author studies convolutions of generalized divisor functions, with integer indices, in arbitrary length, and with modular congruence restrictions. The author introduces the notion of the space of convolution identities along with some results and a conjecture on the connection between the dimension of the space of convolution identities and the number of partitions of a positive integer into exactly three parts, and prove the conjecture for 15 cases. The author also proves convolution identities in arbitrary length.
