چکیده

Abstract. Let l be a positive integer and s = (s1, . . . , sl) be a sequence of positive integers. In this paper we shall study the arithmetic properties of multiple harmonic sum H(s;n) which is the n-th partial sum of multiple zeta value series ζ(s). We conjecture that for every s and every prime p there are only finitely many p-integral partial sums H(s;n). This generalizes a conjecture of Eswarathasan and Levine and Boyd for harmonic series. We provide a lot of evidence for this general conjecture and make some heuristic argument to support it. This paper can be regarded as a sequel to Wolstenholme Type Theorem for multiple harmonic sums, Intl. J. of Num. Thy. 4(1) (2008) 73-106.

2 7 M ar 2 00 3 Partial Sums of Multiple Zeta Value Series II : Finiteness of p - Divisible Sets ∗

Abstract. In this paper we continue to study the partial sums of the multiple zeta value series (abbreviated as MZV series). We conjecture that for any prime p and any MZV series there is always some N such that if n > N then p does not divide the numerator of the nth partial sum of the MZV series. This generalizes a conjecture of Eswarathasan and Levine and Boyd for harmonic series. We provide...

non-divisibility for abelian groups

Throughout all groups are abelian. We say a group G is n-divisible if nG = G. If G has no non-zero n-divisible subgroups for all n>1 then we say that G is absolutely non-divisible. In the study of class C consisting   all absolutely non-divisible groups such as G, we come across the sub groups T_p(G) = the sum of all p-divisible subgroups and rad_p(G) = the intersection of all p^nG. The proper...

Uniquely Remotal Sets in $c_0$-sums and $ell^infty$-sums of Fuzzy Normed Spaces

Let $(X, N)$ be a fuzzy normed space and $A$ be a fuzzy boundedsubset of $X$.  We define fuzzy $ell^infty$-sums and fuzzy $c_0$-sums offuzzy normed spaces. Then we will show that in these spaces, all  fuzzyuniquely remotal sets are singletons.

Quasi-symmetric functions and mod p multiple harmonic sums

We present a number of results about (finite) multiple harmonic sums modulo a prime, which provide interesting parallels to known results about multiple zeta values (i.e., infinite multiple harmonic series). In particular, we prove a “duality” result for mod p harmonic sums similar to (but distinct from) that for multiple zeta values. We also exploit the Hopf algebra structure of the quasi-symm...
