This is a report on recent work, with Wen-Ching Winnie Li and Ling Long. In that work explicit formulas are given, involving hypergeometric character sums, for the traces of Hecke operators $T_p$ acting spaces of cusp forms $S_k(\Gamma)$ of…

The well-known Kummer's formula evaluates the hypergeometric series 2F1(A,B;C;-1) when the relation B-A+C=1 holds. This paper deals with evaluation of 2F1(-1) series in the case when C-A+B is an integer. Such a series is expressed as a sum…

We elaborate on the expansion of hypergeometric functions about rational parameters, where we focus mainly on the integer and half-integer case. The strategy and the basic steps of a recently developed algorithm for the expansion about…

Hypergeometric functions of complex matrices were introduced by James in multivariate statistics. These special functions play many roles in random matrix theory. The main goal of this paper is to suggest a new use for them as holomorphic…

We consider $A$-hypergeometric (or GKZ-)systems in the case where the grading (character) group is an arbitrary finitely generated Abelian group. Emulating the approach taken for classical GKZ-systems in arXiv:math/0406383 that allows for a…

We obtain two new Thomae-type transformations for hypergeometric series with r pairs of numeratorial and denominatorial parameters differing by positive integers. This is achieved by application of the so-called Beta integral method…

In this paper, we mainly establish two supercongruences involving truncated hypergeometric series by using some hypergeometric transformation formulas. The first supercongruence confirms a recent conjecture of the second author. The second…

Summation formulas, such as the Euler-Maclaurin expansion or Gregory's quadrature, have found many applications in mathematics, ranging from accelerating series, to evaluating fractional sums and analyzing asymptotics, among others. We show…

Reduction formulas for sums of products of hypergeometric functions can be traced back to Euler. This topic has an intimate connection to summation and transformation formulas, contiguous relations and algebraic properties of the…

The classical summation and transformation theorems for very well-poised hypergeometric functions, namely, $_{5}F_4(1)$ summation, Dougall's $_{7}F_6(1)$ summation, Whipple's $_{7}F_6(1)$ to $_{4}F_3(1)$ transformation and Bailey's…

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…

We propose a new method to accelerate the convergence of optimization algorithms. This method simply adds a power coefficient $\gamma\in[0,1)$ to the gradient during optimization. We call this the Powerball method and analyze the…

Let $A(1,m)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form $\pi_1$ and $\lambda(m)$ be those of a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke holomorphic or Hecke-Mass cusp form $\pi_2$. Let $H\subset[\![…

We prove that there is a correspondence between Ramanujan-type formulas for 1/\pi, and formulas for Dirichlet L-values. The same method also allows us to resolve certain values of the Epstein zeta function in terms of rapidly converging…

In the last few decades, extensions of General Relativity have reached always more attention especially in view of possible breakdowns of the standard $\Lambda$CDM paradigm at intermediate and high redshift regimes. If General Relativity…

An application of (iterated) Bauer-Muir acceleration can give an Ap\'ery-like continued fraction for $\pi$ with irrational coefficients, and much faster convergence. It can be considered a generalized continued fraction with the same matrix…
