Abstract

Let bt(n)\overline{bt}(n) denote the number of overcubic partition triples of nn. Nayaka, Dharmendra and Kumar proved some congruences modulo 8, 16 and 32 for bt(n)\overline{bt}(n). Recently, Saikia and Sarma established some congruences modulo 64 for bt(n)\overline{bt}(n) by using both elementary techniques and the theory of modular forms. In their paper, they also posed two conjectures on infinite families of congruences modulo 64 and 128 for bt(n)\overline{bt}(n). In this paper, we confirm the two conjectures.
