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…
By utilizing a two-dimensional extension of a very general series transform given by Bailey, Exton [Indian J. pure appl. Math. 24 (6) (1993), 401-408] deduced a very general double generating relation of a product of a pair of Laguerre…
It is shown that Ramanujan's cubic transformation of the Gauss hypergeometric function ${}_2F_1$ arises from a relation between modular curves, namely the covering of $X_0(3)$ by $X_0(9)$. In general, when $2\le N\le 7$ the N-fold cover of…
We offer some summation formulas that appear to have great utility in probability theory. The proofs require some recent results from analysis that have thus far been applied to basic hypergeometric functions.
The Askey-Wilson polynomials are orthogonal polynomials in $x = \cos \theta$, which are given as a terminating $_4\phi_3$ basic hypergeometric series. The non-symmetric Askey-Wilson polynomials are Laurent polynomials in $z=e^{i\theta}$,…

This paper shows that certain $\,_{3}F_{4}$ hypergeometric functions may be expanded in sums of pair products of $\,_{2}F_{3}$ functions. This expands the class of hypergeometric functions having summation theorems beyond those expressible…
We prove new integral formulas for generalized hypergeometric functions and their confuent variants. We apply them, via stationary phase formula, to study WKB expansions of solutions: for large argument in the confuent case and for large…
We obtain a formula which reduces the evaluation of a $_2\psi_2$ series to two $_2\phi_1$ series. In some sense, this identity may be considered as a companion of Slater's formulas. We also find that a two-term ${}_2\psi_2$ summation…
In the two-Higgs-doublet model (THDM), generalized-CP transformations (phi_i--> X_{ij} phi_j^* where X is unitary) and unitary Higgs-family transformations (phi_i--> U_{ij} phi_j) have recently been examined in a series of papers. In terms…
