Let p be a fixed odd prime number. Throughout this paper, Zp, Qp, C, and Cp, will, respectively, denote the ring of p-adic integers, the field, of p-adic rational numbers, the complex number field and the completion of algebraic closure of Qp. Let νp be the normalized exponential valuation of Cp such that |p|p p−νp p 1/p see 1–16 . As well-known definition, the Euler numbers and Genocchi number...

Throughout this paper, let p be a fixed odd prime number. The symbol, Zp, Qp and Cp denote the ring of p-adic integers, the field of p-adic rational numbers and the completion of algebraic closure of Qp. Let N be the set of natural numbers and Z+ = N ∪ {0}. As well known definition, the p-adic absolute value is given by |x|p = p−r where x = p t s with (t, p) = (s, p) = (t, s) = 1. When one talk...

In this short survey we look at a few basic features of p-adic numbers, somewhat with the point of view of a classical analyst. In particular, with p-adic numbers one has arithmetic operations and a norm, just as for real or complex numbers. Let Z denote the integers, Q denote the rational numbers, R denote the real numbers, and C denote the complex numbers. Also let | · | denote the usual abso...
