Some conjectural congruences involving Domb numbers

The Domb numbers are given by $$D_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}^2\binom{2k}k\binom{2(n-k)}{n-k}\ \ \ (n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ Such numbers have combinatorial interpretation, see, e.g., http://oeis.org/A002895....

On the polynomials $\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n+k}k^m q^k$

A sequence of polynomials $$P_0(q),\ P_1(q),\ P_2(q),\ \ldots$$ with real coefficients is called $q$-log-convex if for each $n=1,2,3,\ldots$ every coefficient of the polynomial $P_{n+1}(q)P_{n-1}(q)-...

Integer coefficients such that $T(n,k)=R(n,k)-R(n,k-1)$

Let $a(n)$ be A000085, i.e., the number of self-inverse permutations on $n$ letters, also known as involutions; number of standard Young tableaux with $n$ cells. Here $$a(n) = a(n-1) + (n-1)a(n-2), a(...

In search of multiple expressions for a sequence

The sequence $a_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}k^24^k$ is listed on OEIS along with a couple of combinatorial interpretations. What interested me at the moment is the plethora of binomial single-sums for the ...
