Generalized Legendre polynomials and related congruences modulo $p^2$ | Zhi-Hong Sun
; | Date: |
27 Jan 2011 | Abstract: | For any positive integer $n$ and variables $a$ and $x$ we define the
generalized Legendre polynomial $P_n(a,x)=sum_{k=0}^ninom
akinom{-1-a}k(frac{1-x}2)^k$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In the paper we prove
many congruences modulo $p^2$ related to $P_{p-1}(a,x)$. For example, we show
that $P_{p-1}(a,x)e (-1)^{<a>_p}P_{p-1}(a,-x)mod {p^2}$, where $<a>_p$ is the
least nonnegative residue of $a$ modulo $p$. We also generalize some
congruences of Zhi-Wei Sun and determine $inom{(p-1)/2}{[p/8]}$ and
$inom{(p-1)/2}{[p/(12)]}mod{p^2}$, where $[x]$ is the greatest integer
function. | Source: | arXiv, 1101.5386 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
