Abstract
Let denote the number of 1-shell totally symmetric plane partitions of weight . Recently, Hirschhorn and Sellers, Yao, and Xia established a number of congruences modulo 2 and 5, 4 and 8, and 25 for , respectively. In this note, we shall prove several new congruences modulo 125 and 11 by using some results of modular forms. For example, for all , we have \begin{align*} f(1250n+125)&\equiv 0 \pmod{125},\\ f(1250n+1125)&\equiv 0 \pmod{125},\\ f(2750n+825)&\equiv 0 \pmod{11},\\ f(2750n+1925)&\equiv 0 \pmod{11}. \end{align*}
