Congruences for truncated hypergeometric series ${}_2F_1$

Number Theory 2017-08-31 v3 Combinatorics

Abstract

Rodriguez-Villegas conjectured four supercongruences associated to certain elliptic curves, which were first confirmed by Mortenson by using the Gross-Koblitz formula. In this paper, we aim to prove four supercongruences between two truncated hypergeometric series 2F1{}_2F_1. This generalizes these four Rodriguez-Villegas supercongruences.
