We produce congruences modulo a prime $p>3$ for sums $\sum_k\binom{3k}{k}x^k$ over ranges $0\le k<q$ and $0\le k<q/3$, where $q$ is a power of $p$. Here $x$ equals either $c^2/(1-c)^3$, or $4s^2/\bigl(27(s^2-1)\bigr)$, where $c$ and $s$ are…

For each positive integer n, we determine the set of symmetric functions f for which the congruence f(p/1,p/2,...,p/(p-1)) \equiv 0 mod p^n holds for all sufficiently large primes p. Our determination is conditional on a conjecture…

For integers $b$ and $c$ the generalized central trinomial coefficient $T_n(b,c)$ denotes the coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $(x^2+bx+c)^n$. Those $T_n=T_n(1,1)\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ are the usual central trinomial coefficients, and…

We establish some supercongruences related to a supercongruence of Van Hamme, such as \begin{align*} \sum_{k=0}^{(p+1)/2} (-1)^k (4k-1)\frac{(-\frac{1}{2})_k^3}{k!^3} &\equiv p(-1)^{(p+1)/2}+p^3(2-E_{p-3})\pmod{p^{4}},\\…

The generalized hyperharmonic numbers $h_n^{(m)}(k)$ are defined by means of the multiple harmonic numbers. We show that the hyperharmonic numbers $h_n^{(m)}(k)$ satisfy certain recurrence relation which allow us to write them in terms of…

We consider the numbers $\mathcal{B}_{r,s} = (\mathbf{B}+1)^r \mathbf{B}^s$ (in umbral notation $\mathbf{B}^n = \mathbf{B}_n$ with the Bernoulli numbers) that have a well-known reciprocity relation, which is frequently found in the…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_{n}X^{n}\in\mathbb{F}_p[[X]]$ be the reduction modulo $p$ of the Artin-Hasse exponential. We obtain a polynomial expression for $a_{kp}$ in terms of those $a_{rp}$ with $r<k$, for even…

In this paper, we prove that for any odd prime $p$ and for any $p$-integer $\alpha $,we have $ \binom{\alpha p-1}{p-1}\equiv 1-\alpha (\alpha -1)(\alpha ^{2}-\alpha -1)p\sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{1}{k}+\alpha ^{2} (\alpha-1)^{2}p^{2}\sum_{1\leq…

Congruences modulo prime powers involving generalized Harmonic numbers are known. While looking for similar congruences, we have encountered a curious triangular array of numbers indexed with positive integers $n,k$, involving the Bernoulli…

We study the properties of the product, which runs over the primes, $$\mathfrak{p}_n = \prod_{s_p(n) \, \geq \, p} p \quad (n \geq 1),$$ where $s_p(n)$ denotes the sum of the base-$p$ digits of $n$. One important property is the fact that…

For n=1,2,3,... let p_n be the n-th prime. We mainly show that p_n>n+sum_{k=1}^n p_k/k for all n>124, and sum_{k=1}^n kp_k<n^2p_n/3 for all n>30.

In this paper we confirm a conjecture of Sun which states that each positive integer is a sum of a square, an odd square and a triangular number. Given any positive integer m, we show that p=2m+1 is a prime congruent to 3 modulo 4 if and…

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the relationship between prime numbers and sums of Fibonacci numbers. One of our main results says that for every sufficiently large integer $k$ there exists a prime number that can be represented as…

In this paper, we prove some supercongruences via the Wilf-Zeilberger method. For instance, for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $r$ and $\delta\in\{1,2\}$, we have \begin{align*} \sum_{n=0}^{(p^r-1)/\delta}…

For each positive integer $m$, the $m$th order harmonic numbers are given by $$H_n^{(m)}=\sum_{0<k\le n}\frac1{k^m}\ \ (n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ We discover exact values of some series involving harmonic numbers of order not exceeding four. For…

Given a natural number $n \geq 2$, an integer $k$ and for a judiciously chosen $l = l(n)$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the polynomial $f_{n,k} = \big( \sum_{i=1}^{l} x_{i}^{n} \big) - k$ to have roots modulo every…

The denominators $d_n$ of the harmonic number $1+\frac12+\frac13+\cdots+\frac1n$ do not increase monotonically with~$n$. It is conjectured that $d_n=D_n={\rm LCM}(1,2,\ldots,n)$ infinitely often. For an odd prime $p$, the set…

Let $t\in\mathbb{N}_+$ be given. In this article we are interested in characterizing those $d\in\mathbb{N}_+$ such that the congruence $$\frac{1}{t}\sum_{s=0}^{t-1}{n+d\zeta_t^s\choose d-1}\equiv {n\choose d-1}\pmod{d}$$ is true for each…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let $d$ be an integer not divisible by $p$. We prove that $$ \prod_{1\le m,n\le p-1\atop p\nmid m^2-dn^2}\ (x-(m+n\sqrt{d})) \equiv \begin{cases}\sum_{k=1}^{p-2}\frac{k(k+1)}2x^{(k-1)(p-1)}\pmod p &\text{if}\…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $a$ be a rational $p$-adic integer with $a\not\equiv 0\pmod p$. In this paper, using WZ method we establish the congruences for $\sum_{k=0}^{p-1} \binom ak^2(-1)^k(1-\frac 2ak)$ modulo $p^2$ and…
