On two conjectural supercongruences of Z.-W. Sun
arXiv:2003.09888
Abstract
In this paper, we mainly prove two conjectural supercongruences of Sun by using the following identity which arises from a hypergeometric transformation. For any prime , we prove that \begin{gather*} \sum_{n=0}^{p-1}\frac{n+1}{8^n}\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{2k}{k}^2\binom{2n-2k}{n-k}^2\equiv(-1)^{(p-1)/2}p+5p^3E_{p-3}\pmod{p^4},\\ \sum_{n=0}^{p-1}\frac{2n+1}{(-16)^n}\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{2k}{k}^2\binom{2n-2k}{n-k}^2\equiv(-1)^{(p-1)/2}p+3p^3E_{p-3}\pmod{p^4}, \end{gather*} where is the th Euler number.
