Abstract: This paper investigates partitions which have neither parts nor hook lengths divisible by $p$, referred to as $p$-core $p^{\prime }$-partitions. We show that the largest $p$-core $p^{\prime }$-partition corresponds to the longest walk on a graph with vertices $0,1,ldots,p-1$ and labelled edges defined via addition modulo $p$. We also exhibit an explicit family of large $p$-core $p^{\prime }$-partitions, giving a lower bound on the size of the largest such partition which is of the same degree as the upper bound found by McSpirit and Ono.
