which implies (1.15) after summing over each
,
applying (8.1) and then using Fermat's Theorem and the Von Staudt--Clausen
Theorem.
With a little more work we see that the left side of (1.15) is
where
.
Taking
and n=p-2 in (8.4), and then using a number of the
well--known congruences quoted in section 8 as well as (8.1), we obtain
and
.
Substituting these equations into (9.2), and using the fact that
for
, we see that the left side of (1.15) is
