Factors of some truncated basic hypergeometric series
Abstract
We prove that certain basic hypergeometric series truncated at k=n-1 have the factor n(q)2, where n(q) is the n-th cyclotomic polynomial. This confirms two recent conjectures of the author and Zudilin. We also put forward some conjectures on q-congruences modulo n(q)2.
