In this article, we describe a new algorithm for the expansion of hypergeometric functions about half-integer parameters. The implementation of this algorithm for certain classes of hypergeometric functions in the already existing…

We give a new hypergeometric construction of rational approximations to $\zeta(4)$, which absorbs the earlier one from 2003 based on Bailey's ${}_9F_8$ hypergeometric integrals. With the novel ingredients we are able to get a better control…

By systematically applying ten inequivalent two-part relations between hypergeometric sums 3F2(1) to the published database of all such sums, 66 new sums are obtained. Many results extracted from the literature are shown to be special cases…

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…

We explain the use and set grounds about applicability of algebraic transformations of arithmetic hypergeometric series for proving Ramanujan's formulae for $1/\pi$ and their generalisations.

We deduce several curious q-series expansions by applying inverse relations to certain identities for basic hypergeometric series. After rewriting some of these expansions in terms of q-integrals, we obtain, in the limit q -> 1, some…

Prior information can be incorporated in matrix completion to improve estimation accuracy and extrapolate the missing entries. Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces provide tools to leverage the said prior information, and derive more reliable…

It is suggested that the (p,q)-hypergeometric series studied by Burban and Klimyk (in Integral Transforms and Special Functions, 2 (1994) 15 - 36) can be considered as a special case of a more general (P,Q)-hypergeometric series.

General theory of elliptic hypergeometric series and integrals is outlined. Main attention is paid to the examples obeying properties of the "classical" special functions. In particular, an elliptic analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric…

Any three basic hypergeometric series {}_{2}phi_{1} whose respective parameters (a, b, c) differ by integer powers of the base q satisfy a linear relation with coefficients which are rational functions of a, b, c, q and the variable x.…

We provide a complete classification of the algebraicity of (generalized) hypergeometric functions with no restriction on the set of their parameters. Our characterization relies on the interlacing criteria of Christol (1987) and…

We give a survey of elliptic hypergeometric functions associated with root systems, comprised of three main parts. The first two form in essence an annotated table of the main evaluation and transformation formulas for elliptic…

With the use of the $(f,g)$-matrix inversion under specializations that $f=1-xy,g=y-x$, we establish an $(1-xy,y-x)$-expansion formula. When specialized to basic hypergeometric series, this $(1-xy,y-x)$-expansion formula leads us to some…

We derive a number of summation and transformation formulas for elliptic hypergeometric series on the root systems A_n, C_n and D_n. In the special cases of classical and q-series, our approach leads to new elementary proofs of the…

Some multiple hypergeometric transformation formulas arising from the balanced du- ality transformation formula are discussed through the symmetry. Derivations of some transformation formulas with different dimensions are given by taking…

We use elliptic Taylor series expansions and interpolation to deduce a number of summations for elliptic hypergeometric series. We extend to the well-poised elliptic case results that in the $q$-case have previously been obtained by Cooper…

Motivated by the substantial development of the special functions, we contribute to establish some rigorous results on the general series identities with bounded sequences and hypergeometric functions with different arguments, which are…

Recently, Kajihara gave a Bailey-type transformation relating basic hypergeometric series on the root system An, with different dimensions n. We give, with a new, elementary, proof, an elliptic analogue of this transformation. We also…
