چکیده
ess as: 2), http: athemat s.2012.0 Abstract Two Gauss functions are said to be contiguous if they are alike except for one pair of parameters, and these differ by unity. Contiguous relations are of great use in extending numerical tables of the function. In this paper we will introduce a new method for computing such types of relations. a 2012 Egyptian Mathematical Society. Production and hosting by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Contiguous relations of hypergeometric series
The 15 Gauss contiguous relations for 2F1 hypergeometric series imply that any three 2F1 series whose corresponding parameters differ by integers are linearly related (over the field of rational functions in the parameters). We prove several properties of coefficients of these general contiguous relations, and use the results to propose effective ways to compute contiguous relations. We also di...

متن کاملA new integral solution of the hypergeometric equation
In this work we derive a new integral of the hypergeometric differential equation, valid for arbitrary parameters α, β, γ and which is expressed in terms of indefinite integrals. This leads to new types of relations between F (α, β, γ;x) and its contiguous functions : F (α, β, γ;x) can be related to only one of the functions contiguous to it.These equations enable one to extend the formulae giv...
متن کاملA Note on the 2F1 Hypergeometric Function
The special case of the hypergeometric function 2F1 represents the binomial series (1 + x) = ∑∞ n=0 ( α n ) xn that always converges when |x| < 1. Convergence of the series at the endpoints, x = ±1, depends on the values of α and needs to be checked in every concrete case. In this note, using new approach, we reprove the convergence of the hypergeometric series for |x| < 1 and obtain new result...
متن کاملA proof of Kummer’s theorem
Following suggestions of T. H. Koornwinder [3], we give a new proof of Kummer’s theorem involving Zeilberger’s algorithm, the WZ method and asymptotic estimates. In the first section, we recall a classical proof given by L. J. Slater [7]. The second section discusses the new proof, in the third section sketches of similar proofs for Bailey’s and Dixon’s theorems are given. The author is gratefu...
