In this paper we introduce a finite field analogue of a Lauricella hypergeometric series. An integral formula for the Lauricella hypergeometric series and its finite field analogue are deduced. Transformation and reduction formulae and…
Hypergeometric functions over finite fields were introduced by Greene in the 1980s as a finite field analogue of classical hypergeometric series. These functions, and their generalizations, naturally lend themselves to, and have been widely…
In this paper, we develop a finite field analogue for one of the Lauricella series, $F^{(n)}_A$. Extending results of Greene, a finite field analog for the multinomial coefficient is developed in order to express the Lauricella series in…

We prove sum representations of Appell-Lauricella functions over a finite field using confluent hypergeometric functions over the finite field. As an application, we also prove transformation formulas, summation formulas and reduction…

We prove finite field analogues of integral representations of Appell- Lauricella hypergeometric functions in many variables. We consider certain hypersurfaces having a group action and compute the numbers of rational points associated with…

We define a function $F_4^{\ast}$ as a finite field analogue of the classical Appell series $F_4$ using Gauss sums. We establish identities for $F_4^{\ast}$ analogous to those satisfied by the classical Appell series $F_4$.
The present paper is devoted to the study of Appell hypergeometric function $F_3$ from discrete point of view. We mainly introduce two generalized discrete forms of $F_3$ and study their basic properties \emph{viz.} regions of convergence,…
We count the number of irreducible polynomials in several variables of a given degree over a finite field. The results are expressed in terms of a generating series, an exact formula and an asymptotic approximation. We also consider the…
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.…
Classical hypergeometric functions are well-known to play an important role in arithmetic algebraic geometry. These functions offer solutions to ordinary differential equations, and special cases of such solutions are periods of…
Let p be an odd prime. In 1984, Greene introduced the notion of hypergeometric functions over finite fields. Special values of these functions have been of interest as they are related to the number of F_p points on algebraic varieties and…
In 1984, the second author conjectured a quadratic transformation formula which relates two hypergeometric 2F1 functions over a finite field F_q. We prove this conjecture and give an application. The proof depends on a new linear…
In this paper, we study the Appell function $F_4$ from discrete point of view. In particular, we obtain regions of convergence, difference-differential equations, finite and infinite summation formulas and a list of recursion relations…
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.
