Explicit logarithmic formulas of special values of hypergeometric functions 3F2

Algebraic Geometry 2019-06-10 v1

Abstract

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 rational numbers satisfies a certain numerical condition. However there remains a question how to obtain explicit descriptions of the values. In this paper, we give a method to do this, which is a further development of the technique in [4].
