چکیده

1. Notation. Let Z and N be the sets of integers and positive integers respectively. For b, c ∈ Z the Lucas sequences {U n (b, c)} and {V n (b, c)} are defined by (1.1) U 0 (b, c) = 0, U 1 (b, c) = 1, U n+1 (b, c) = bU n (b, c) − cU n−1 (b, c) (n ≥ 1) and (1.2) V 0 (b, c) = 2, V 1 (b, c) = b, V n+1 (b, c) = bV n (b, c) − cV n−1 (b, c) (n ≥ 1). Let d = b 2 − 4c. It is well known that for n ∈ N, (1.3) U n (b, c) = 1 √ d b+ √ d 2 n − b− √ d 2 n if d = 0, n(b 2) n−1 if d = 0 and (1.4) V n (b, c) = b + √ d 2 n + b − √ d 2 n. Let [x] be the greatest integer not exceeding x, and let (a m) be the Jacobi symbol. For m ∈ Z with m = 2 α m 0 (2 m 0) we say that 2 α m and m 0 is the odd part of m. For t ∈ Z let δ(t) = 1 if 8 | t, −1 if 8 t.

Abstract. We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while conjectures in Part B have been recently confirmed. We hope that this material will interest number theorists and stimulate further research. Number theoris...

Some Congruences Motivated by Algebraic Topology

In July 2005, D. M. Davis posted several original numbertheoretic conjectures arising from his investigation of homotopy exponents of the special unitary group SU(n). The recent study of these conjectures and their generalizations by the author and Davis led to a strong lower bound for the homotopy p-exponent of SU(n), as well as a number of new combinatorial congruences some of which extend va...

Congruences concerning Legendre Polynomials

Let p be an odd prime. In the paper, by using the properties of Legendre polynomials we prove some congruences for È p−1 2 k=0 2k k ¡ 2 m −k (mod p 2). In particular, we confirm several conjectures of Z.W. Sun. We also pose 13 conjectures on supercongruences.

Heegner points, Heegner cycles, and congruences

We define certain objects associated to a modular elliptic curve E and a discriminant D satisfying suitable conditions. These objects interpolate special values of the complex L-functions associated to E over the quadratic field Q( √ D), in the same way that Bernouilli numbers interpolate special values of Dirichlet L-series. Following an approach of Mazur and Tate [MT], one can make conjecture...

Congruences between Selmer groups ∗

The study of congruences between arithmetically interesting numbers has a long history and plays important roles in several areas of number theory. Examples of such congruences include the Kummer congruences between Bernoulli numbers and congruences between coefficients of modular forms. Many of these congruences could be interpreted as congruences between special values of L-functions of arith...
