A binomial coefficient identity associated with Beukers' conjecture on {A}péry numbers
The electronic journal of combinatorics, Tome 11 (2004) no. 1
By means of partial fraction decomposition, an algebraic identity on rational function is established. Its limiting case leads us to a harmonic number identity, which in turn has been shown to imply Beukers' conjecture on the congruence of Apéry numbers.
