Supercongruences involving Domb numbers and binary quadratic forms

(14 pages)

Abstract.

In this paper, we prove two recently conjectured supercongruences (modulo p3, where p is any prime greater than 3) of Zhi-Hong Sun on truncated sums involving the Domb numbers. Our proofs involve a number of ingredients such as congruences involving specialized Bernoulli polynomials, harmonic numbers, binomial coefficients, and hypergeometric summations and transformations.
