We give the new connection formula for the divergent bilateral basic hypergeometric series ${}_2\psi_2(a_1,a_2;b_1;q,x)$ by the using of the $q$-Borel-Laplace resummation method and Slater's formula. The connection coefficients are given by…

We state and prove a number of unilateral and bilateral $q$-series identities and explore some of their consequences. Those include certain generalizations of the $q$-binomial sum which also generalize the $q$-Airy function introduced by…

We establish several summation formulae for hypergeometric and basic hypergeometric series involving noncommutative parameters and argument. These results were inspired by a recent paper of J. A. Tirao [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. 100 (14)…

A multidimensional generalization of Bailey's very-well-poised bilateral basic hypergeometric ${}_6\psi_6$ summation formula and its Dougall type ${}_5H_5$ hypergeometric degeneration for $q\to 1$ is studied. The multiple Bailey sum amounts…

We define bilateral series related to Ramanujan-like series for $1/\pi^2$. Then, we conjecture a property of them and give some applications.

By using contiguous relations for basic hypergeometric series, we give simple proofs of Bailey's $_4\phi_3$ summation, Carlitz's $_5\phi_4$ summation, Sears' $_3\phi_2$ to $_5\phi_4$ transformation, Sears' ${}_4\phi_3$ transformations,…

We show that several terminating summation and transformation formulas for basic hypergeometric series can be proved in a straightforward way. Along the same line, new finite forms of Jacobi's triple product identity and Watson's quintuple…

We use the Algortihm Z on partitions due to Zeilberger, in a variant form, to give a combinatorial proof of Ramanujan's $_1\psi_1$ summation formula.

We give elementary derivations of some classical summation formulae for bilateral (basic) hypergeometric series. In particular, we apply Gauss' 2-F-1 summation and elementary series manipulations to give a simple proof of Dougall's 2-H-2…

Several new identities for elliptic hypergeometric series are proved. Remarkably, some of these are elliptic analogues of identities for basic hypergeometric series that are balanced but not very-well-poised.

We review and derive transformation and summation formulas for bilateral basic hypergeometric series. Our study focuses on consequences of certain bilateral extensions of two important results by Bailey, namely a transformation for…

Using some properties of the gamma function and the well-known Gauss summation formula for the classical hypergeometric series, we prove a four-parameter series expansion formula, which can produce infinitely many Ramanujan type series for…

The partial sums of two quartic basic hypergeometric series are investigated by means of the modified Abel lemma on summation by parts. Several summation and transformation formulae are consequently established.

A summation formula is derived for the hypergeometric series of unit argument ${}_3F_2(1,1,c;d,n+2;1)$, where $n=0, 1, 2, \ldots$ and $\Re (d-c+n)>0$.

In terms of the analytic continuation method, we prove three transformation formulas involving bilateral basic hypergeometric series. One of them is equivalent to Jouhet's result involving two $_8\psi_8$ series and two $_8\phi_7$ series.

By making use of the multiplicate form of the extended Carlitz inverse series relations, we establish two general `dual' theorems of Jackson's summation formula for well--poised $_8\phi_7$-series. Their duplicate forms under the partition…

By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…

Chu has recently shown that the Abel lemma on summations by parts can serve as the underlying relation for Bailey's ${}_6\psi_6$ bilateral summation formula. In other words, the Abel lemma spells out the telescoping nature of the…

We present a systematic method for proving nonterminating basic hypergeometric identities. Assume that $k$ is the summation index. By setting a parameter $x$ to $xq^n$, we may find a recurrence relation of the summation by using the…

In this paper, we provide proofs of two ${}_5\psi_5$ summation formulas of Bailey using a ${}_5\phi_4$ identity of Carlitz. We show that in the limiting case, the two ${}_5\psi_5$ identities give rise to two ${}_3\psi_3$ summation formulas…
