We study the monodromy of the following third order linear differential equation \[y'''(z)-(\alpha\wp(z;\tau)+B)y'(z)+\beta\wp'(z;\tau)y(z)=0, \] where $B\in\mathbb{C}$ is a parameter, $\wp(z;\tau)$ is the Weierstrass $\wp$-function with…

Euler's transformation formula for the Gauss hypergeometric function 2F1 is extended to hypergeometric functions of higher order. Unusually, the generalized transformation constrains the hypergeometric function parameters algebraically but…

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…

Let (M,J) be an almost complex manifold. We show that the infinite-dimensional space Tau of totally real submanifolds in M carries a natural connection. This induces a canonical notion of geodesics in Tau and a corresponding definition of…
