Hypergeometric type identities in the \(p\)-adic setting and modular forms. (English) Zbl 1397.11078

Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 144, No. 4, 1493-1508 (2016).
Summary: We prove hypergeometric type identities for a function defined in terms of quotients of the \( p\)-adic gamma function. We use these identities to prove a supercongruence conjecture of Rodriguez-Villegas between a truncated \( _4F_3\) hypergeometric series and the Fourier coefficients of a certain weight four modular form.
