Abstract
Atkin and Garvan introduced the moments of ranks of partitions in their work connecting ranks and cranks. Here we consider a combinatorial interpretation of these moments. This requires the introduction of a new representation for partitions, the Durfee symbol, and subsequent refinements. This in turn leads us to a variety of new congruences for our 'marked' Durfee symbols much in the spirit of Dyson's original conjectures on the ranks of partitions.
