Exact formal proposition

Hypotheses and conclusion

This is the meaningful proposition proved by the checked wrapper declaration. It is extracted from the same commit-pinned Lean source.

def WolstenholmeTheoremStatement : Prop :=
  ∀ p : ℕ, p.Prime → 3 < p → harmonicReciprocalSumMod p = 0
Definitions used in this proposition

harmonicReciprocalSumMod

noncomputable def harmonicReciprocalSumMod (p : ℕ) : ZMod (p ^ 2) :=
  ∑ k ∈ Finset.Icc 1 (p - 1), ((k : ZMod (p ^ 2))⁻¹)
Lean wrapper declaration

The checked endpoint names the expanded proposition above. Both come from the same commit-pinned source.

Line counts exclude blank lines; comments and documentation count. The total is the commit-pinned first-party Lean import closure; Mathlib and other third-party dependencies are excluded.

Accepted Result: Wolstenholme's Theorem
Accepted-result status
Accepted formalization of a known theorem
Accepted-result boundary
This target records Wolstenholme's theorem in modular reciprocal-sum form: for every prime p > 3, the finite reciprocal harmonic sum through p-1 is zero in ZMod (p^2). Non-claim: This is not the binomial coefficient formulation or an equivalence proof. Non-claim: This accepted-result record does not establish novelty and does not by itself authorize public export or deployment.

Lean foundations

Standard foundations used by the proof

Lean reports the logical foundations below through Mathlib. They are standard proof-system foundations, not conjectural mathematical assumptions about this theorem. The recorded closure stays within the approved classical_mathlib_standard profile, with no unexpected axiom or unfinished-proof placeholder.

Reproduce or inspect the recorded check

Use the complete first-party source bundle for reconstruction, or inspect the exact main file and checker evidence separately. Mathlib and other third-party dependencies are identified but not rebundled.

Review results

Publication reviews accepted

All four required publication-review gates are accepted for the reviewed presentation of this exact theorem. The review results are separate from the Lean build and do not broaden the formal statement.
