Lecture held in Science Center in the CUNY Graduate Center (4th floor).

Abstract: Reimagining Siegel's method, we shall produce a rather easy proof of a surprisingly good upper bound on the number of partitions of a positive integer into perfect $r$th powers, where $r \ge 1$. If time permits, we shall present a generalization pertaining to partitions into perfect powers of terms in an arithmetic progression.
