 Introduction on Bernoulli's numbers
The following famous and important theorem was published in 1840 by Karl von Staudt (1798-1867) and it allows to compute easily the fractional part of Bernoulli's numbers (thus it also permits to compute the denominator of those numbers).
Clausen-von Staudt's theorem also permits to compute exactly a Bernoulli's number as soon as a sufficiently good approximation of it is known.
They also appear in numbers theory (Fermat's theorem) and in many other domains and have caused the creation of a huge literature (see the 2700 and more entries enumerated in [ 6 ]).

 Bernoulli number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Divisibility properties of the Bernoulli numbers are related to the ideal class groups of cyclotomic fields by a theorem of Kummer and its strengthening in the Herbrand-Ribet theorem, and to class numbers of real quadratic fields by Ankeny-Artin-Chowla.
In mathematics, the Bernoulli numbers are a series of rational numbers with deep connections in number theory.
Although easy to calculate, the values of the Bernoulli numbers have no elementary description; they are, up to a factor, the values of the Riemann zeta function at negative integers.

 Bernoullis Equation Applied to a Convergent-Divergent Passage
The experiment demonstrates the use of a Pitot-static tube, and investigates the application of Bernoullis theorem to flow along a convergent-divergent passage.
This now may be compared with the velocity ratio inferred from pressure distribution using Bernoullis theorem.
The aim of the experiment is to measure the distribution of the difference between the total pressure P and static pressure p along the duct and, using Bernoullis equation, determine the absolute velocity values, u, along the same channel.

 Some simple algorithms for the evaluations and representations of the Riemann zeta function at positive integer arguments -- from Mathematica Information Center
zeta functions, Basler problem, hypergemetric series, Gauss' summation theorem, Wallis' integral formula, Dixon's summation theorem, Bernoulli polynomials, Bernoulli numbers, Euler's formula, Mellin transform, Wilton's formula, Lerch's transcendent
Many interesting solutions of the so-called Basler problem of evaluating the Riemann zeta function zeta(s) when s=2, which was of vital importance to Euler and the Bernoulli brothers (Jakob and Johann Bernoulli), have appeared in the mathematical literature ever since Euler first solved this problem in the year 1736.
The main object of the present paper is to investigate rather systematically several interesting evaluations and representations of zeta(s) when s is an element of N\{1}.

Herbrand showed that if an eigenspace is non-trivial then a corresponding Bernoulli number is divisible by p, and Ribet proved the converse, which amounted to constructing certain unramified extensions of $K\sb p$.
Let p be an odd prime and consider the p-th cyclotomic field $K\sb p$.

 Theorem of de Moivre-Laplace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In probability theory, the theorem of de Moivre-Laplace is a special case of the central limit theorem.
The "Bernoulli trials" were not so-called in that book, but rather de Moivre wrote about the probability distribution of the number of times "heads" appears when a coin is tossed 1800 times.
It states that the binomial distribution of the number of "successes" in n independent Bernoulli trials with probability 1/2 of success on each trial is approximately a normal distribution if n is large, or, more precisely, that after standardizing, the probabilities converge to those assigned by the standard normal distribution.

  He also included combinations and permutations, which are still employed today, along with a series of problems on games of chance, and most importantly the Bernoulli theorem and a proof of the Binomial theorem.
One of LaplaceÂ’s significant contributions to the theory of probability was the Central Limit Theorem, which he presented in 1810, and which provided the necessary tool to solve the method of least squares.
In Ars Conjectandi Bernoulli gave explanations and original proofs of the propositions introduced in HuygenÂ’s De ratiociniis in Ludo Aleae.

Bernoulli numbers are particularly important in number theory, especially in connection with Fermat's last theorem (see, e.g., Ribenboim (1979)).
The same is true for the numerous generalizations and extensions of the Bernoulli and allied numbers and of the corresponding polynomials.
We included those in which Bernoulli numbers play a relatively important role; these criteria, however, are not well defined and are somewhat arbitrary.
