Nath–Saikia–Sarma's quadratic congruence conjecture for 22-regular 33-tuple partitions

About 1 year old · traced to

Let Tℓ,k(n)T_{\ell,k}(n) denote the number of kk-tuple partitions of nn whose components are ℓ\ell-regular partitions, and write T2(n)=T2,3(n)T_2(n)=T_{2,3}(n). Let p≥5p\geq 5 be a prime satisfying

(−2p)L=−1.\left(\dfrac{-2}{p}\right)_{L}=-1.

Let tt be a positive integer such that (t,6)=1(t,6)=1 and p∣tp\mid t. Nath–Saikia–Sarma's conjecture. For all n≥0n\geq 0 and 1≤j≤p−11\leq j\leq p-1,

T2(9⋅t2n+9⋅t2jp+57⋅t2−18)≡0(mod6).T_2\left(9\cdot t^2n+\frac{9\cdot t^2j}{p}+\frac{57\cdot t^2-1}{8}\right)\equiv 0\pmod{6}.

This conjecture extends the authors' preceding congruence for primes p≡5p\equiv5 or 7(mod8)7\pmod 8 and p∤np\nmid n. Its resolution is not indicated in the source.
