We explore a function $L(\vec{x})=L(a,b,c,d;e;f,g)$ which is a linear combination of two Saalsch\"utzian ${}_4F_3(1)$ hypergeometric series. We demonstrate a fundamental two-term relation satisfied by the $L$ function and show that the…

For the hypergeometric function of unit argument 3F2(1) we prove the existence and uniqueness of three-term relations with arbitrary integer shifts. We show that not only the original 3F2(1) function but also other five functions related to…

Recursive formulas extending some known $_{2}F_{1}$ and $_{3}F_{2}$ summation formulas by using contiguous relations have been obtained. On the one hand, these recursive equations are quite suitable for symbolic and numerical evaluation by…

In this paper we continue investigation of the hypergeometric function ${}_4F_3(1)$ as the function of its seven parameters. We deduce several reduction formulas for this function under additional conditions that one of the top parameters…

We study the group of transformations of 4F3 hypergeometric functions evaluated at unity with one unit shift in parameters. We reveal the general form of this family of transformations and its group property. Next, we use explicitly known…

In this paper, we explore the symmetric nature of the terminating basic hypergeometric series representations of the Askey--Wilson polynomials and the corresponding terminating basic hypergeometric transformations that these polynomials…

The 15 Gauss contiguous relations for ${}_2F_1$ hypergeometric series imply that any three ${}_2F_1$ series whose corresponding parameters differ by integers are linearly related (over the field of rational functions in the parameters). We…

Any three basic hypergeometric series {}_{2}phi_{1} whose respective parameters (a, b, c) differ by integer powers of the base q satisfy a linear relation with coefficients which are rational functions of a, b, c, q and the variable x.…

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 1879, Thomae discussed the relations between two generic hypergeometric $_3F_2$-series with argument 1. It is well-known since then that there are 120 such relations (including the trivial ones which come from permutations of the…

Denote the free group on two letters by F2 and the SL(3,C)-representation variety of F2 by R = Hom(F2, SL(3,C)). There is a SL(3,C)-action on the coordinate ring of R, and the geometric points of the subring of invariants is an affine…

Structures of symmetries of transformations for Holman-Biedenharn-Louck $A_n$ hypergeometric series: $A_n$ terminating balanced ${}_4 F_3$ series and $A_n$ elliptic ${}_{10} E_9$ series are discussed. Namely the description of the…

Using contiguous relations we construct an infinite number of continued fraction expansions for ratios of generalized hypergeometric series 3F2(1). We establish exact error term estimates for their approximants and prove their rapid…

The multiplicate form of Gould--Hsu's inverse series relations enables to investigate the dual relations of the Chu-Vandermonde-Gau{\ss}'s, the Pfaff-Saalsch\"utz's summation theorems and the binomial convolution formula due to Hagen and…

We generalize a terminating summation formula to a unilateral nonterminating, and further, a bilateral summation formula by a property of analytic functions. The unilateral one is proved to be a $q$-analogue of a $_4F_3$-summation formula.…

Any three hypergeometric series whose respective parameters, a, b and c, differ by integers satisfy a linear relation with coefficients that are rational functions of a, b, c and the variable x. These relations are called three-term…

Using Bailey's very-well-poised $_6\psi_6$ summation, we show that a specific sequence of well-poised bilateral basic hypergeometric $_3\psi_3$ series form a family of orthogonal functions on the unit circle. We further extract a bilateral…

A summation formula is derived for the sum of the first m+1 terms of the 3F2(a,b,c;(a+b+1)/2,2c;1) series when c = -m is a negative integer. This summation formula is used to derive a formula for the sum of a terminating double…

We investigate a certain linear combination $K(\vec{x})=K(a;b,c,d;e,f,g)$ of two Saalschutzian hypergeometric series of type ${_4}F_3(1)$. We first show that $K(a;b,c,d;e,f,g)$ is invariant under the action of a certain matrix group $G_K$,…
