Abstract

In this paper, in view of the transformation formulae for q-hypergeometric series, a lemma of El Bachraoui, the creative microscoping method developed by Guo and Zudilin and the Chinese remainder theorem for coprime polynomials, we obtain certain q-supercongruences modulo the fifth power of a cyclotomic polynomial from squares of q-hypergeometric series.
