General theory of elliptic hypergeometric series and integrals is outlined. Main attention is paid to the examples obeying properties of the "classical" special functions. In particular, an elliptic analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric…
We investigate the convexity property on $(0,1)$ of the functions $\varphi_{a,b,c}$ and $1/\varphi_{a,b,c}$, where $$\varphi_{a,b,c}(x)= \frac{c-\log(1-x)}{\,_2F_1(a,b,a+b,x)},$$ whenever $a,b\geq 0$ and $a+b\leq 1$. We Show that…

We obtain sufficient conditions for an exponential type entire function not to have zeros in the open lower half-plane. An exact inequality containing the real and imaginary parts of such functions and their derivatives restricted to the…
In 2007, \'A. Baricz put forward a conjecture concerning Tur\'an-type inequalities for Gaussian hypergeometric functions (see Conjecture \ref{ConjA} in Section \ref{Sec1}). In this paper, the authors disprove this conjecture with several…
This paper explores the calculus of dual-valued functions and investigates the gamma function, beta function and generalized hypergeometric functions by incorporating dual numbers as parameters and variables. We examine its fundamental…
We give a necessary and sufficient mean condition for the quotient of two Jensen functionals and define a new class $\Lambda_{f,g}(a, b)$ of mean values where $f, g$ are continuously differentiable convex functions satisfying the relation…
We construct an explicit orthonormal basis of piecewise ${}_{i+1}F_{i}$ hypergeometric polynomials for the Alpert multiresolution analysis. The Fourier transform of each basis function is written in terms of ${}_2F_3$ hypergeometric…
We present a conspicuous number of indefinite integrals involving Heun functions and their products obtained by means of the Lagrangian formulation of a general homogeneous linear ordinary differential equation. As a by-product we also…
In this paper, given two polynomials $f$ and $g$ of one variable and a $0$-cycle $C$ of $f$, we consider the deformation $f+\epsilon g$. We define two functions: the displacement function $\Delta(t,\epsilon)$ and its first order…
For any integer $d\times (n+1)$ matrix $A$ and parameter $\beta\in\CC^d$ let $M_A(\beta)$ be the associated $A$-hypergeometric (or GKZ) system in the variables $x_0,\ldots,x_n$. We describe bounds for the (roots of the) $b$-functions of…
The incomplete beta function is an important special function in statistics. In modern theory of hypergeometric functions, we regard hypergeometric functions as pairings of twisted cycles and twisted cocycles. However, the incomplete beta…
Given a reflexive Banach space $X$, we consider a class of functionals $\Phi \in C^1(X,\Re)$ that do not behave in a uniform way, in the sense that the map $t \mapsto \Phi(tu)$, $t>0$, does not have a uniform geometry with respect to $u\in…
In the present paper, we study the shifted hypergeometric function $f(z)=z\Gauss(a,b;c;z)$ for real parameters with $0<a\le b\le c$ and its variant $g(z)=z\Gauss(a,b;c;z^2).$ Our first purpose is to solve the range problems for $f$ and $g$…
We consider fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations with zero and first order terms. We provide a priori upper bounds and characterize the existence of entire subsolutions under growth conditions on the lower order coefficients which…
We find two-sided inequalities for the generalized hypergeometric function of the form ${_{q+1}}F_{q}(-x)$ with positive parameters restricted by certain additional conditions. Both lower and upper bounds agree with the value of…
Let $f(x)=x^TAx+2a^Tx+c$ and $h(x)=x^TBx+2b^Tx+d$ be two quadratic functions having symmetric matrices $A$ and $B$. The S-lemma with equality asks when the unsolvability of the system $f(x)<0, h(x)=0$ implies the existence of a real number…
