Proof of a conjecture related to divisibility properties of binomial coefficients

Number Theory 2015-02-26 v2 Combinatorics

Abstract

Let a,ba,b and nn be positive integers with a>ba>b. In this note, we prove that (2bn+1)(2bn+3)(2bnbn)3(ab)(3ab)(2anan)(anbn).(2bn+1)(2bn+3){2bn \choose bn}\bigg|3(a-b)(3a-b){2an \choose an}{an\choose bn}. This confirms a recent conjecture of Amdeberhan and Moll.
