This paper shows that certain $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions can be expanded in sums of pair products of $\,_{1}F_{2}$ functions. In special cases, the $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions reduce to $\,_{2}F_{3}$ functions.…
We investigate sums $K(\vec{x})$ and $L(\vec{x})$ of pairs of (suitably normalized) Saalsch\"utzian ${}_4F_3(1)$ hypergeometric series, and develop a theory of relations among these $K$ and $L$ functions. The function $L(\vec{x})$ has been…
Let $A$ be a set of $N$ vectors in ${\mathbb Z}^n$ and let $v$ be a vector in ${\mathbb C}^N$ that has minimal negative support for $A$. Such a vector $v$ gives rise to a formal series solution of the $A$-hypergeometric system with…
Linear recurrence equations with constant coefficients define the power series coefficients of rational functions. However, one usually prefers to have an explicit formula for the sequence of coefficients, provided that such a formula is…

We consider the rational linear relations between real numbers whose squared trigonometric functions have rational values, angles we call ``geodetic''. We construct a convenient basis for the vector space over Q generated by these angles.…
We study the character sums \[\phi_{(m,n)}(a,b)=\sum_{x\in\mathbb{F}_q}\phi\left(x(x^{m}+a)(x^{n}+b)\right),\textrm{ and, } \psi_{(m,n)}(a,b)=\sum_{x\in\mathbb{F}_q}\phi\left((x^{m}+a)(x^{n}+b)\right)\] where $\phi$ is the quadratic…
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 $\Re (d-c+n)>0$.
The generalized hypergeometric function $_qF_p$ is a power series in which the ratio of successive terms is a rational function of the summation index. The Gaussian hypergeometric functions $_2F_1$ and $_3F_2$ are most common special cases…
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.
With the help of the partial derivative operator and several summation formulas for hypergeometric series, we find three double series for $\pi$. In terms of the operator just stated and several summation formulas for basic hypergeometric…
In solving $q$-difference equations, and in the definition of $q$-special functions, we encounter formal power series in which the $n$th coefficient is of size $q^{-\binom{n}{2}}$ with $q\in(0,1)$ fixed. To make sense of these formal…

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.

The Gauss hypergeometric function ${}_2F_1(a,b,c;z)$ can be computed by using the power series in powers of $z, z/(z-1), 1-z, 1/z, 1/(1-z),(z-1)/z$. With these expansions ${}_2F_1(a,b,c;z)$ is not completely computable for all complex…
