Abstract: In this paper we establish some congruences involving the Ap'ery numbers $$ $(n=0,1,2,ldots)$. For example, we show that ${\displaystyle }$sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(11k^2+13k+4)�eta_kequiv0pmod{2n^2}${\displaystyle }$ for any positive integer $n$, and ${\displaystyle }$sum_{k=0}^{p-1}(11k^2+13k+4)�eta_kequiv 4p^2+4p^7B_{p-5}pmod{p^8}${\displaystyle }$ for any prime $p>3$, where $B_{p-5}$ is the $(p-5)$th Bernoulli number. We also present certain relations between congruence properties of the two kinds of A'pery numbers, $$ and $$.
