Conjectural Bernoulli recursion for coefficients of the Artin–Hasse exponential
Conjectural Bernoulli recursion for coefficients of the Artin–Hasse exponential
Let be an odd prime and let
be the Artin–Hasse exponential series in . For an integer , let denote the -th Bernoulli number. The conjectural recursion. For every integer with , one has
The formula would provide a replacement for the preceding recursion, whose useful conclusion is restricted to even indices, and would allow the coefficients with odd to be obtained recursively. The required higher supercongruences for direct calculations are currently unavailable, so the assertion is presented as conjectural.
