In 1992, Koepf [J. Symb. Comp. 13 (1992) 581] introduced an algorithm for computing a Formal Power Series of a given function using generalized hypergeometric series and a recurrence equation of hypergeometric type. The main aim of this paper is to develop a new algorithm for computing exact power series solutions of second order linear differential equations with polynomial coefficients, near ...

We consider the q-hypergeometric equation with q = 1 and α, β, γ ∈ Z. We solve this equation on the space of functions given by a power series multiplied by a power of the logarithmic function. We prove that the subspace of solutions is twodimensional over the field of quasi-constants. We get a basis for this space explicitly. In terms of this basis, we represent the q-hypergeometric function o...

The hypergeometric zeta function is defined in terms of the zeros of the Kummer function M(a, a+b; z). It is established that this function is an entire function of order 1. The classical factorization theorem of Hadamard gives an expression as an infinite product. This provides linear and quadratic recurrences for the hypergeometric zeta function. A family of associated polynomials is characte...

The main object of this paper is to consider the asymptotic distribution of the zeros of certain classes of the Gauss hypergeometric polynomials. Some classical analytic methods and techniques are used here to analyze the behavior of the zeros of the Gauss hypergeometric polynomials, 2F1(−n, a;−n+ b; z), where n is a nonnegative integer. Owing to the connection between the classical Jacobi poly...

Using Krattenthaler’s operator method, we give a new proof of Warnaar’s recent elliptic extension of Krattenthaler’s matrix inversion. Further, using a theta function identity closely related to Warnaar’s inversion, we derive summation and transformation formulas for elliptic hypergeometric series of Karlsson–Minton-type. A special case yields a particular summation that was used by Warnaar to ...

We study the solutions of irregular A-hypergeometric systems that are constructed from Gröbner degenerations with respect to generic positive weight vectors. These are formal logarithmic Puiseux series that belong to explicitly described Nilsson rings, and are therefore called (formal) Nilsson series. When the weight vector is a perturbation of (1, . . . , 1), these series converge and provide ...

Although the noncentral hypergeometric distribution underlies conditional inference for 2£2 tables,major statistical packages lack support for this distribution.This article introduces fast and stable algorithms for computing the noncentral hypergeometric distribution and for sampling from it. The algorithms avoid the expensive and explosive combinatorial numbers by using a recursive relation.T...

A recurrence relation between equal mass two-loop sunrise diagrams differing in dimensionality by 2 is derived and it's solution in terms of Gauss' 2 F 1 and Appell's F 2 hypergeometric functions is presented. For arbitrary space-time dimension d the imaginary part of the diagram on the cut is found to be the 2 F 1 hypergeometric function with argument proportional to the maximum of the Kibble ...

The main object of this paper is to give a di erent approach to proof of generating matrix functions for Laguerre matrix polynomials. We also obtain the hypergeometric matrix representations, addition theorem, nite summation formula and an integral representation for Laguerre matrix polynomials. We get the relations between Laguerre, Legendre and Hermite matrix polynomials. We get the generatin...
