We prove that if the signed binomial coefficient (-1) i k i viewed modulo p is a periodic function of i with period h in the range 0 i k, then k + 1 is a power of p, provided h is not too large compared to k. (In particular, 2h k suffices). As an application, we prove that if G and H are multiplicat
The Lucas theorem for binomial coefficients implies some interesting tensor product properties of certain matrices regarded for every prime p in the field TP. Let us define the array of numbers C(i,j) for all nonnegative integers i and j by binomial coefficients: ## 0 _i ' We may display the numb
