- sage.rings.bernoulli_mod_p.bernoulli_mod_p(p)[source]¶
Return the Bernoulli numbers \(B_0, B_2, ... B_{p-3}\) modulo \(p\).
INPUT:
p
– integer; a prime
OUTPUT:
list – Bernoulli numbers modulo \(p\) as a list of integers [B(0), B(2), … B(p-3)].
ALGORITHM:
Described in accompanying latex file.
PERFORMANCE:
Should be complexity \(O(p \log p)\).
EXAMPLES:
Check the results against PARI’s C-library implementation (that computes exact rationals) for \(p = 37\):

- sage.rings.bernoulli_mod_p.verify_bernoulli_mod_p(data)[source]¶
Compute checksum for Bernoulli numbers.
It checks the identity
\[\sum_{n=0}^{(p-3)/2} 2^{2n} (2n+1) B_{2n} \equiv -2 \pmod p\](see “Irregular Primes to One Million”, Buhler et al)
INPUT:

OUTPUT: boolean;
True
