Abstract

Recently, Guo and Tang independently established some q-supercongruences from Rahman’s quadratic transformation. In this paper, by applying the method of creative microscoping devised by Guo and Zudilin together with Rahman’s quadratic transformation again, we provide proofs for eight conjectures on q-supercongruences proposed by Guo and by Tang.
