Mathematical functions, which often appear in mathematical analysis, are referred to as special functions and have been studied over hundreds of years. Many books and dictionaries are available that describe their properties and serve as a…
The expansion of Kummer's hypergeometric function as a series of incomplete Gamma functions is discussed, for real values of the parameters and of the variable. The error performed approximating the Kummer function with a finite sum of…
The confluent hypergeometric equation, also known as Kummer's equation, is one of the most important differential equations in physics, chemistry, and engineering. Its two power series solutions are the Kummer function, M(a,b,z), often…
The theoretical computing of special values assumed by the hypergeometric functions has a high interest not only on its own, but also in sight of the remarkable implications to both pure Mathematics and Mathematical Physics. Accordingly, in…

Integral representations of hypergeometric functions proved to be a very useful tool for studying their properties. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we extend the known representations to arbitrary values of the parameters and…
Biconfluent Heun (BCH) function, a confluent form of Heun function, is the special case of Grand Confluent Hypergeometric (GCH) function: this has a regular singularity at x=0, and an irregular singularity at infinity of rank 2. In this…
Given the growing quantity of proposals and works of basic hypergeometric functions in the scope of $q$-calculus, it is important to introduce a systematic classification of $q$-calculus. Our aim in this article is to investigate certain…
We introduce an algorithm to compute the functions belonging to a suitable set ${\mathscr F}$ defined as follows: $f\in {\mathscr F}$ means that $f(s,x)$, $s\in A\subset {\mathbb R}$ being fixed and $x>0$, has a power series expansion…
We calculate some infinite sums containing the digamma function in closed-form. These sums are related either to the incomplete beta function or to the Bessel functions. The calculations yield interesting new results as by-products, such as…
Recently, Feng, Kuznetsov and Yang discovered a very general reduction formula for a sum of products of the generalized hypergeometric functions (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 443(2016), 116--122). The main goal of this note is to present a…
It is well-known that the two-parameter Mittag-Leffler (ML) function plays a key role in Fractional Calculus. In this paper, we address the problem of computing this function, when its argument is a square matrix. Effective methods for…
We derive a fully analytical, one-line closed-form expression for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the product of two correlated zero-mean normal random variables, avoiding any series representation. This result complements the…
The two most commonly used hypergeometric functions are the confluent hypergeometric function and the Gauss hypergeometric function. We review the available techniques for accurate, fast, and reliable computation of these two hypergeometric…
We show a connection formula for the $q$-confluent hypergeometric functions ${}_2\varphi_1(a,b;0;q,x)$. Combining our connection formula with Zhang's connection formula for ${}_2\varphi_0(a,b;-;q,x)$, we obtain the connection formula for…
Chebyshev expansion coefficients can be computed efficiently by using the FFT, and for smooth functions the resulting approximation is close to optimal, with computations that are numerically stable. Given sufficiently accurate function…
