We say that a formal power series $\sum a_n z^n$ with rational coefficients is a 2-function if the numerator of the fraction $a_{n/p}-p^2 a_n$ is divisible by $p^2$ for every prime number $p$. One can prove that 2-functions with rational…
Integral representations of hypergeometric functions proved to be a very useful tool for studying their properties. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we extend the known representations to arbitrary values of the parameters and…

One may consider the generalization of Jacobi polynomials and the Jacobi function of the second kind to a general function where the index is allowed to be a complex number instead of a non-negative integer. These functions are referred to…
We show that many integrals containing products of confluent hypergeometric functions follow directly from one single integral that has a very simple formula in terms of Appell's double series F_2. We present some techniques for computing…
In this work we consider a family of function classes constructed by means of the Gauss hypergeometric function $_2F_1(1,1;2;z) =-\frac{\log(1-z)}{z}$. We demonstrate that this family, in fact, constitutes classes of analytic functions…
Computing explicitly the {\epsilon}-subdifferential of a proper function amounts to computing the level set of a convex function namely the conjugate minus a linear function. The resulting theoretical algorithm is applied to the the class…
We consider the asymptotic behaviour of the Gauss hypergeometric function when several of the parameters a, b, c are large. We indicate which cases are of interest for orthogonal polynomials (Jacobi, but also Krawtchouk, Meixner, etc.),…
Each family of Gauss hypergeometric functions $$ f_n={}_2F_1(a+\epsilon_1n, b+\epsilon_2n ;c+\epsilon_3n; z), $$ for fixed $\epsilon_j=0,\pm1$ (not all $\epsilon_j$ equal to zero) satisfies a second order linear difference equation of the…
Various methods to obtain the analytic continuation near $z=1$ of the hypergeometric series $_{p+1}F_p(z)$ are reviewed together with some of the results. One approach is to establish a recurrence relation with respect to $p$ and then,…
Starting with the multiplication of elements in $\mathbb{F}_{q}^2$ which is consistent with that over $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}$, where $q$ is a prime power, via some identification of the two environments, we investigate the $c$-differential…
