Difference of the Sum of All Odd and Even Overlined Parts of Overpartitions

Recently, Garvan and Sarma studied sums of non-overlined parts in overpartitions and partitions without repeated odd parts. In this paper, we study the corresponding statistic for overlined parts. We define $\mathrm{O}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{O}\mathrm{M}\mathrm{E}(n)$ as the sum of all odd overlined parts minus the sum of all even overlined parts in the overpartitions of $n$. We obtain a closed form for its generating function and use it to prove congruences by elementary $q$-series methods, the theory of half-integral weight modular forms, and known congruences for the overpartition function.
