Supercongruences Involving Multiple Harmonic Sums and Bernoulli Numbers
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study some supercongruences involving multiple harmonic sums by using Bernoulli numbers. Our main theorem generalizes previous results by many different authors and confirms a conjecture by the authors and their collaborators. In the proof, we will need not only the ordinary multiple harmonic sums in which the indices are ordered, but also some variant forms in which the indices can be unordered or partially ordered. It is a crucial fact that the unordered multiple harmonic sums often behave better than the corresponding ordered sums when one considers congruences. We believe these unordered sums will play important roles in other studies in the future.

My mathematical research interests are in number theory and algebraic geometry. My thesis work concerns the arithmetic of a family of rational numbers known as multiple harmonic sums, which are truncated approximations of multiple zeta values. I explore new structures underlying relations involving multiple harmonic sums, p-adic L-values, Bernoulli numbers, and binomial coefficients. This is us...
متن کاملSome Properties of Associated Stirling Numbers
Abstract In this paper, we discuss the properties of associated Stirling numbers. By means of the method of coefficients, we establish a series of identities involving associated Stirling numbers, Bernoulli numbers, harmonic numbers, and the Cauchy numbers of the first kind. In addition, we give the asymptotic expansion of certain sums involving 2-associated Stirling numbers of the second kind ...
متن کاملGaussian Hypergeometric Series and Extensions of Supercongruences
Let p be an odd prime. The purpose of this paper is to refine methods of Ahlgren and Ono [2] and Kilbourn [13] in order to prove a general mod p congruence for the Gaussian hypergeometric series n+1Fn(λ) where n is an odd positive integer. As a result, we extend three recent supercongruences. The first is a result of Ono and Ahlgren [2] on a supercongruence for Apéry numbers which was conjectur...
متن کاملA Comment on Matiyasevich’s Identity #0102 with Bernoulli Numbers
We connect and generalize Matiyasevich’s identity #0102 with Bernoulli numbers and an identity of Candelpergher, Coppo and Delabaere on Ramanujan summation of the divergent series of the infinite sum of the harmonic numbers. The formulae are analytic continuation of Euler sums and lead to new recursion relations for derivatives of Bernoulli numbers. The techniques used are contour integration, ...
متن کاملSome results on q-harmonic number sums
In this paper, we establish some relations involving q-Euler type sums, q-harmonic numbers and q-polylogarithms. Then, using the relations obtained with the help of q-analog of partial fraction decomposition formula, we develop new closed form representations of sums of q-harmonic numbers and reciprocal q-binomial coefficients. Moreover, we give explicit formulas for several classes of q-harmon...
