On 3-adic valuations of generalized harmonic numbers (Q2882927)

For positive integers \(m\) and \(n\), defineNEWLINENEWLINE\[NEWLINEH^{(m)}_n=\sum_{k=1}^n\frac1{k^m}\;\text{and}\;A^{(m)}_n=\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{(-1)^{k-1}}{k^m}.NEWLINE\]NEWLINENEWLINEIn the paper under review, the author determines the \(3\)-adic valuation of \(H^{(m)}_n\) and \(A^{(m)}_n\) via the \(3\)-adic expansion of \(n\).
