In this paper, we deduce some supercongruences for sums involving third power of certain rising factorials using hypergeometric series identities and evaluations. In particular, we first relate a truncated hypergeometric sum with the coefficients of the modular form of weight 3. Further, we confirm certain supercongruence conjectures related to truncated hypergeometric series.

Abstract


In this paper, we deduce some supercongruences for sums involving third power of certain rising factorials using hypergeometric series identities and evaluations. In particular, we first relate a truncated hypergeometric sum with the coefficients of the modular form of weight 3. Further, we confirm certain supercongruence conjectures related to truncated hypergeometric series.
