Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free cocompact lattice in $\aut(\cl T_1)\times\aut(\cl T_2)$, where $\cl T_1$, $\cl T_2$ are trees whose vertices all have degree at least three. The group $H_2(\Gamma, \bb Z)$ is determined explicitly in terms of…

We review recent results on analytical properties (monotonicity and bounds) for ratios of contiguous functions of hypergeometric type. The cases of parabolic cylinder functions and modified Bessel functions have been discussed with…

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.…

Motivated mainly by certain interesting recent extensions of the Gamma, Beta and hypergeometric functions, we introduce here new extensions of the Beta function, hypergeometric and confluent hypergeometric functions. We systematically…

We provide two kinds of representations for the Taylor coefficients of the Weierstrass $\sigma$-function $\sigma(\cdot;\Gamma)$ associated to an arbitrary lattice $\Gamma$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}=\mathbb{R}^2$ - the first one in…

In this paper we study the time evolution of a class of two-level systems driven by periodic fields in terms of new convergent perturbative expansions for the associated propagator U(t). The main virtue of these expansions is that they do…

If the $\beta$-function of a time-periodic Lagrangian on a manifold $M$ has a vertex at a $k$-irrational homology class $h$, then $2k \leq \dim M$. Furthermore if $\dim M =2$ $h$ is rational.

We describe a new method to estimate the trilinear period on automorphic representations of PGL(2,R). Such a period gives rise to a special value of the triple L-function. We prove a bound for the triple period which amounts to a…

When a Hamiltonian system is subject to constraints which depend explicitly on time, difficulties can arise in attempting to reduce the system to its physical phase space. Specifically, it is non-trivial to restrict the system in such a way…

In this paper, we study three models of f(R) modified gravity including higher order terms based on different equation of state parameter. We also assume variable G and $\Lambda$. By using numerical analysis, we obtain the behavior of some…

We study four types of (co)cartesian fibrations of $\infty$-bicategories over a given base $\mathcal{B}$, and prove that they encode the four variance flavors of $\mathcal{B}$-indexed diagrams of $\infty$-categories. We then use this…

The theories of hypergeometric functions and modular forms are highly intertwined. For example, particular values of truncated hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric character sums are often congruent or equal to Fourier coefficients…

The inhomogeneous fluctuations that underlie structure formation - galaxies and CMB hotspots - might have been seeded by quantum cosmological fluctuations, as magnified by some inflationary mechanism. The Halliwell-Hawking model for these,…

Very recently a new series representation of Humbert's double hypergeometric series $\Phi_3$ in series of Gauss's $_2F_1$ function was given by one of us. The aim of this short research note is to provide an alternative proof of the result.…

We examine the expansions of the solutions of the general Heun equation in terms of the Gauss hypergeometric functions. We present several expansions using functions, the forms of which differ from those applied before. In general, the…

We fix three natural numbers $k, n, N$, such that $n+k+1=N$, and introduce the notion of two dual arrangements of hyperplanes. One of the arrangements is an arrangement of $N$ hyperplanes in a $k$-dimensional affine space, the other is an…

The Gauss hypergeometric functions 2F1 with arbitrary values of parameters are reduced to two functions with fixed values of parameters, which differ from the original ones by integers. It is shown that in the case of integer and/or…

We study ring of functions on the (classical and quantized) phase space of 2-dimensional BF theory with the gauge group $\mathrm{GL}_N$ coupled to a 1-dimensional quantum mechanics with global symmetry $\mathrm{GL}_K$. These functions are…

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…
