Let T be a Young diagram of n nodes:

(1)

ai being the length of its ith row. With respect to a prime p, we denote by T0 the p-core of T. If T0 consists of m nodes, then

(2) m=n-lp,

where l is the number of successive p-hooks [3] removable from T to yield its p-core T0. We have stated in [4] the following theorem :
