Van Hamme's supercongruence (A.2) for a truncated hypergeometric series
Let be an odd prime. For parameters and , write the truncated hypergeometric series as
where and for . Let denote the -adic Gamma function. Van Hamme's supercongruence (A.2).
The congruence was first confirmed by McCarthy and Osburn, so it is solved rather than open.
