Abstract
In this paper, we examine \(\sum \limits _{k=m}^{p-1}q^{k} {k \brack m} _{q}H_{k}\left( x;q\right) \pmod {\left[ p\right] _{q}}\) and \(M_{p-1}\left( x;q\right) \pmod {\left[ p\right] _{q}},\) where for real number x, \(H_{n}\left( x;q\right) =\sum \limits _{k=1}^{n}\frac{x^{k}}{\left[ k\right] _{q}}\) and \(M_{n}\left( x;q\right) =\sum \limits _{k=1}^{n}k\frac{x^{k}}{\left[ k\right] _{q}}.\) For example, for an odd prime number p and \(m\in \left\{ 0,1,...,p-2\right\} ,\)
