In this paper, we confirm the following conjecture of Guo and Schlosser: for any odd integer $n>1$ and $M=(n+1)/2$ or $n-1$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{M}[4k-1]_{q^2}[4k-1]^2\frac{(q^{-2};q^4)_k^4}{(q^4;q^4)_k^4}q^{4k}\equiv…

Using Watson's terminating $_8\phi_7$ transformation formula, we prove a family of $q$-congruences modulo the square of a cyclotomic polynomial, which were originally conjectured by the author and Zudilin [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 475 (2019),…

Using the $q$-Wilf--Zeilberger method and a $q$-analogue of a "divergent" Ramanujan-type supercongruence, we give several $q$-supercongruences modulo the fourth power of a cyclotomic polynomial. One of them is a $q$-analogue of a…

We prove two single-parameter q-supercongruences which were recently conjectured by Guo, and establish their further extensions with one more parameter. Crucial ingredients in the proof are the terminating form of q-binomial theorem and a…

In 2017, He [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 145 (2017), 501--508] established two spuercongruences on truncated hypergeometric series and further proposed two related conjectures. Subsequently, Liu [Results Math. 72 (2017), 2057--2066] extended…

We prove that certain basic hypergeometric series truncated at $k=n-1$ have the factor $\Phi_n(q)^2$, where $\Phi_n(q)$ is the $n$-th cyclotomic polynomial. This confirms two recent conjectures of the author and Zudilin. We also put forward…

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…

Employing a quadratic transformation formula of Rahman and the method of `creative microscoping' (introduced by the author and Zudilin in 2019), we provide some new $q$-supercongruences for truncated basic hypergeometric series. In…

Several new $q$-supercongruences are obtained using transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series, together with various techniques such as suitably combining terms, and creative microscoping, a method recently developed by the…

From Carlitz's identity, we deduce two new $q$-supercongruences modulo the square of a cyclotomic polynomial, which were originally conjectured by Guo. These results establish new $q$-analogues of a supercongruence of Sun.
