Congruences modulo primes of the Romik sequence related to the Taylor expansion of the Jacobi theta constant {\theta}_3

Recently, Romik determined in [9] the Taylor expansion of the Jacobi theta constant \theta_3, around the point x = 1. He discovered a new integer sequence, (d(n))_0^\infty=1, 1, -1, 51, 849, -26199, \dots, from which the Taylor coefficients are built, and conjectured that the numbers d(n) satisfy certain congruences modulo various primes. In this paper, we prove some of these conjectures, for example that d(n)\equiv (-1)^{n+1}(mod 5) for all n\geq 1,and that for any prime p\equiv 3 (mod 4), d(n) vanishes modulo p for all large enough n.
