By using Andrews's explicit formulae of the $q$-Fibonacci sequence introduced by Schur, we prove certain congruences of the $q$-Fibonacci sequence which relate the sequence with the original Fibonacci sequence. As a corollary, we show that…
We establish a congruence on sums of central $q$-binomial coefficients. From this $q$-congruence, we derive the divisibility of the $q$-trinomial coefficients introduced by Andrews and Baxter.
In 1987, Andrews and Baxter introduced six kinds of $q$-trinomial coefficients in exploring the solution of a model in statistical mechanics. In this paper, we give some $q$-supercongruences for the truncated forms of these polynomials.
We consider an identity relating Fibonacci numbers to Pascal's triangle discovered by G. E. Andrews. Several authors provided proofs of this identity, most of them rather involved or else relying on sophisticated number theoretical…
In this paper, we present several new congruences on the $q$-trinomial coefficients introduced by Andrews and Baxter. A new congruence on sums of central $q$-binomial coefficients is also established.

Andrews once gave $q$-analogues of a binomial congruence of Glaisher, and he suggested perfect $q$-analogues. In this note we give ones meeting the demand of Andrews.
We give a new proof of a_4\phi_3 summation due to G.E. Andrews and confirm another_4\phi_3 summation conjectured by him recently. Some variations of these two_4\phi_3 summations are also given.
The Fibonacci numbers are familiar to all of us. They appear unexpectedly often in mathematics, so much there is an entire journal and a sequence of conferences dedicated to their study. However, there is also another sequence of numbers…
We prove multiplicative congruences mod $2^{12}$ for George Andrews's partition function, $\overline{\mathcal{EO}}(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ in which every even part is less than each odd part and only the largest even part…
In 1969, Andrews proved a theorem on partitions with difference conditions which generalises Schur's celebrated partition identity. In this paper, we generalise Andrews' theorem to overpartitions. The proof uses q-differential equations and…
Recently Andrews and Sellers proved some amazing congruences for the Fishburn numbers. We extend their results to a more general sequence of numbers. As a result we prove a new congruence mod 23 for the Fishburn numbers and prove their…
In 2013, Joerg Arndt recorded that the Fibonacci numbers count integer compositions where the first part is greater than the second, the third part is greater than the fourth, etc. We provide a new combinatorial proof that verifies his…
We establish a $q$-analogue of Sun--Zhao's congruence on harmonic sums. Based on this $q$-congruence and a $q$-series identity, we prove a congruence conjecture on sums of central $q$-binomial coefficients, which was recently proposed by…
We give a simple proof of a recent result by J. Schleischitz dealing with a counterexample to the uniform Littlewood conjecture. Our construction is based on simple properties of Fibonacci numbers.
We prove a conjecture due to Gica (Fibonacci Quarterly, 2008). Our proof is simple, uses only elementary abstract algebra, and generalizes to other recursive sequences.
Linnik proved in the late 1950's the equidistribution of integer points on large spheres under a congruence condition. The congruence condition was lifted in 1988 by Duke (building on a break-through by Iwaniec) using completely different…
We establish a supercongruence conjectured by Almkvist and Zudilin, by proving a corresponding $q$-supercongruence. Similar $q$-supercongruences are established for binomial coefficients and the Ap\'{e}ry numbers, by means of a general…
In 1968 and 1969, Andrews proved two partition theorems of the Rogers-Ramanujan type which generalise Schur's celebrated partition identity (1926). Andrews' two generalisations of Schur's theorem went on to become two of the most…
We collect here various conjectures on congruences made by the author in a series of papers, some of which involve binary quadratic forms and other advanced theories. Part A consists of 100 unsolved conjectures of the author while…
