Proof of a congruence for harmonic numbers conjectured by Z.-W. Sun
Abstract: For a positive integer $n$ let $H_n=\sum_{k=1}{n}1/k$ be the $n$th harmonic number. In this note we prove that for any prime $p\ge 7$, $$ \sum_{k=1}{p-1}\frac{H_k2}{k2} \equiv4/5pB_{p-5}\pmod{p2}, $$ which confirms the conjecture recently proposed by Z. W. Sun. Furthermore, we also prove two similar congruences modulo $p2$.
