Hypergeometric structures in single and multiscale Feynman integrals emerge in a wide class of topologies. Using integration-by-parts relations, associated master or scalar integrals have to be calculated. For this purpose it appears useful…
Integral relations and transformation rules are used to obtain, out of an asymptotic solution, a new group of four pairs of solutions to the double-confluent Heun equation. Each pair presents the same series coefficients but has solutions…
We will present some (formal) arguments that any Feynman diagram can be understood as a particular case of a Horn-type multivariable hypergeometric function. The advantages and disadvantages of this type of approach to the evaluation of…

We extend the validity range of a Ramanujan's hypergeometric transformation formula proved by Berndt, Bhargava and Garvan, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 347, 4163 (1995) and study its implications. Relations to special values of complete elliptic…
In this paper a double integral containing two Gaussian hypergeometric functions is discussed. The integral is not found in the literature and a direct computation is not (yet) possible. Therefore, a complete different integral is computed…

The transformation theory of the Appell $F_2(a,b_1,b_2;c_1,c_2;x,y)$ double hypergeometric function is used to obtain a set of series representations of $F_2$ which provide an efficient way to evaluate $F_2$ for real values of its arguments…
We give examples of where the Heun function exists as solutions of wave equations encountered in general relativity. While the Dirac equation written in the background of Nutku helicoid metric yields Mathieu functions as its solutions in…
We obtain new inequalities for certain hypergeometric functions. Using these inequalities, we deduce estimates for the hyperbolic metric and the induced distance function on a certain canonical hyperbolic plane domain.
Finite hypergeometric functions are functions of a finite field ${\bf F}_q$ to ${\bf C}$. They arise as Fourier expansions of certain twisted exponential sums and were introduced independently by John Greene and Nick Katz in the 1980's.…
We introduce a one parameter deformation of the Zwegers' $\mu$-function as the image of $q$-Borel and $q$-Laplace transformations of a fundamental solution for the $q$-Hermite-Weber equation. We further give some formulas for our…
Many product formulas are known classically for generalized hypergeometric functions over the complex numbers. In this paper, we establish some analogous formulas for generalized hypergeometric functions over finite fields.
Investigation of the generalized trigonometric and hyperbolic functions containing two parameters has been a very active research area over the last decade. We believe, however, that their monotonicity and convexity properties with respect…
