Proof of two supercongruences of truncated hypergeometric series ${}_4F_3$ (1910.09983v3)
Published 20 Oct 2019 in math.NT and math.CO
Abstract: In this paper, we prove two supercongruences conjectured by Z.-W. Sun via the Wilf-Zeilberger method. One of them is, for any prime $p>3$, \begin{align*} \sum_{n=0}{(p-1)/2}\frac{6n+1}{(-512)n}\binom{2n}n3&\equiv p\left(\frac{-2}p\right)+\frac{p3}4\left(\frac2p\right)E_{p-3}\pmod{p4}, \end{align*} where $\left(\frac{\cdot}p\right)$ stands for the Legendre symbol, and $E_{n}$ is the $n$-th Euler number.
