A generalized q-supercongruence with shifted summation

About 12 years old · traced to

Let pp be an odd prime, let m,rm,r be positive integers with p∤mp\nmid m, and let s⩽p−1s\leqslant p-1 be nonnegative. Write ⟨a⟩p\langle a\rangle_p for the least nonnegative residue of aa modulo pp. The generalized q-supercongruence. If ⟨−r/m⟩p≡s+1(mod2)\langle-r/m\rangle_p\equiv s+1\pmod2, then

∑k=sp−1(qm;qm)2k(qr;qm)k(qm−r;qm)kqmk(qm;qm)k−s(qm;qm)k+s(q2m;q2m)k2≡0(mod[p]2).\sum_{k=s}^{p-1}\frac{(q^m;q^m)_{2k}(q^r;q^m)_k(q^{m-r};q^m)_kq^{mk}}{(q^m;q^m)_{k-s}(q^m;q^m)_{k+s}(q^{2m};q^{2m})_k^2}\equiv0\pmod{[p]^2}.

This is presented as a further generalization suggested by the authors; the supplied text gives no resolution.
