Abstract
Motivated by Zudilin’s work, we give q-analogues of the Ramanujan-type supercongruences (E.2) and (F.2) of Van Hamme. Our proof utilizes the q-WZ method and properties of cyclotomic polynomials. Using the same q-WZ pair, we also give q-analogues of some similar supercongruences due to He and Swisher. Additionally, we propose several related conjectures on supercongruences or q-supercongruences.
