AB - Given an odd prime number $p$, we characterize the partitions $\underline{\ell }$ of $p$ with $p$non negative parts $\ell _0\ge \ell _1\ge \ldots \ge \ell _{p-1}\ge 0$ for which there exist permutations $\sigma ,\tau $ of the set $\lbrace 0,\ldots ,p-1\rbrace $ such that $p$ divides $\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}i\ell _{\sigma (i)}$ but does not divide $\sum _{i=0}^{p-1}i\ell _{\tau (i)}$. This happens if and only if the maximal number of equal parts of $\underline{\ell }$ is less than $p-2$. The question appeared when dealing with sums of $p$-th powers of resolvents, in order to solve a Galois module structure problem.
