The asymptotic expansion of the Kummer function ${}_1F_1(a; b; z)$ is examined as $z\to+\infty$ on the Stokes line $\arg\,z=0$. The correct form of the subdominant algebraic contribution is obtained for non-integer $a$. Numerical results…

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 evaluate some series via the WZ method, and confirm several previous conjectures. For example, we prove the following two identities conjectured by the second author: $$\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{(28k^2 + 10k + 1)…

In a recent paper \cite{Temme:2021:AKH} new asymptotic expansions are given for the Kummer functions $M(a,b,z)$ and $U(a,b+1,z)$ for large positive values of $a$ and $b$, with $z$ fixed and special attention for the case $a\sim b$. In this…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K = Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field. Let v be any primitive root mod p. Let sigma be a Q-isomorphism of K. Let P(sigma) = sigma^{p-2}v^{-(p-2)}+ ... + sigma v^{-1} +1 \in Z[G] where 1 \leq v^n \leq p-1 is a…

We prove a conjecture of Zagier about the inverse of a $(K-1)\times (K-1)$ matrix $A=A_{K}$ using elementary methods. This formula allows one to express the the product of single zeta values $\zeta(2r)\zeta(2K+1-2r)$, $1\leq r\leq K-1$, in…

In a joint paper [4] by Otsubo, Terasoma and the first author, we proved that the special value 3F2(a,b,q;a+b,q;1) of the generalized hypergeometric function is a linear combination of log of algebraic numbers if the triplet (a,b,q) of…

The coefficient of x^{-1} of a formal Laurent series f(x) is called the formal residue of f(x). Many combinatorial numbers can be represented by the formal residues of hypergeometric terms. With these representations and the extended…

It is shown that the classical quadratic and cubic transformation identities satisfied by the hypergeometric function ${}_3F_2$ can be extended to include additional parameter pairs, which differ by integers. In the extended identities,…

Identities involving finite sums of products of hypergeometric functions and their duals have been studied since 1930s. Recently Beukers and Jouhet have used an algebraic approach to derive a very general family of duality relations. In…

The double sum sum_(j=0)^m sum_(i=0)^j (-1)^(j-i) C(m,j) C(j,i) C(j+k+qi,j+k) with free nonnegative integer parameters k and q is rewritten as hypergeometric series. Efficient formulas to generate the C-finite ordinary generating functions…

Using some transformation formulas of the generalized hypergeometric series $\,_3F_2$, we give another proof of D. Zagier's evaluation formula of the multiple zeta values $\zeta(2,...,2,3,2,...,2)$.

Value of generalized hypergeometric function at a special point is calculated. More precisely, value of certain multiple integral over vanishing cycle (all arguments collapse to unity) is calculated. The answer is expressed in terms of…

We prove a pair of transformation formulas for multivariate elliptic hypergeometric sum/integrals associated to the $A_n$ and $BC_n$ root systems, generalising the formulas previously obtained by Rains. The sum/integrals are expressed in…

We show how the formulas in paper Variae considerationes circa series hypergeometricas written by Euler imply the duplication formula for the Gamma-function. This paper can be seen as an Addendum to a previous paper by the author.

We present a method to prove hypergeometric double summation identities. Given a hypergeometric term $F(n,i,j)$, we aim to find a difference operator $ L=a_0(n) N^0 + a_1(n) N^1 +...+a_r(n) N^r $ and rational functions…
