Abstract

In a recent paper, Jin, Liu, and Xia \cite{JLX} presented some modulo 4 congruences for $\overline{spt2}(n)$, the number of smallest parts in the overpartitions of $n$ where the smallest part is even and is not overlined. In this paper, we extend the list of such congruences in two directions. First, we prove some new individual congruences for $\overline{spt2}(n)$. Then, we provide a number of infinite families of Ramanujan-like congruences satisfied by $\overline{spt2}(n)$.
