Congruences arising from Ap\'ery-type series for zeta values

Number Theory 2013-12-31 v3 Combinatorics

Abstract

Recently, R. Tauraso established finite pp-analogues of famous Ap\'ery series for ζ(2)\zeta(2) and ζ(3).\zeta(3). In this paper, we present several congruences for finite central binomial sums arising from the truncation of Ap\'ery-type series for ζ(4)\zeta(4) and ζ(5).\zeta(5). We also prove a pp-analogue of Zeilberger's series for ζ(2)\zeta(2) confirming a conjecture of Z. W. Sun.
