Some q-congruences with parameters
Abstract
Let n(q) be the n-th cyclotomic polynomial in q. Recently, the author and Zudilin provide a creative microscoping method to prove some q-supercongruences mainly modulo n(q)3 by introducing an additional parameter a. In this paper, we use this creative microscoping method to confirm some conjectures on q-supercongruences modulo n(q)2. We also give some parameter-generalizations of known q-supercongruences. For instance, we present further generalizations of a q-analogue of a famous supercongruence of Rodriguez-Villegas: Σk=0p-12k k216k (-1)(p-1)/2p2 any odd prime p.
