Abstract

In this paper, based on Serre's pp-adic family of Eisenstein series, we prove a general family of congruences for Eisenstein series GkG_k in the form i=1ngi(p)Gfi(p)g0(p)modpN, \sum_{i=1}^n g_i(p)G_{f_i(p)}\equiv g_0(p)\mod p^N, where f1(t),,fn(t)Z[t]f_1(t),\ldots,f_n(t)\in\mathbb{Z}[t] are non-constant integer polynomials with positive leading coefficients and g0(t),,gn(t)Q(t)g_0(t),\ldots,g_n(t)\in\mathbb{Q}(t) are rational functions. This generalizes the classical von Staudt-Clausen's and Kummer's congruences of Eisenstein series, and also yields some new congruences.
