Abstract

In this paper, we deduce some supercongruences for sums involving third power of certain rising factorials using hypergeometric series identities and evaluations. In particular, we first relate a truncated hypergeometric sum with the coefficients of the modular form of weight 3. Further, we confirm certain supercongruence conjectures related to truncated hypergeometric series.
