We use various dissections of Ramanujan's theta functions to nd in nite families of arithmetic identities and Ramanujan-type congruences for `-regular overpartitions and overpartitions into odd parts. We nd certain congruences satis ed by A`(n) for ` = 4; 8 and 9, where A`(n) denotes the number of `-regular overpartitions of n. We nd several in nite families of congruences including some Ramanujan-type congruences satis ed by A2`(n) and A4`(n) for any ` 1. We next prove several congruences for po(n) modulo 8 and 16, where po(n) denotes the number of overpartitions of n into odd parts. We also obtain the generating functions for po(16n+2), po(16n+6), and po(16n + 10); and some new p-dissection formulas.enMATHEMATICSArithmetic properties of certain partition functions and modular formsThesis
