Abel's lemma on summation by parts and basic hypergeometric series

Basic hypergeometric series identities are revisited systematically by means of Abel's lemma on summation by parts. Several new formulae and transformations are also established. The author is convinced that Abel's lemma on summation by parts is a natural choice in dealing with basic hypergeometric series.     

Reduction Formulas for Karlsson–Minton-Type Hypergeometric Functions

We prove a master theorem for hypergeometric functions of Karlsson–Minton type, stating that a very general multilateral U(n) Karlsson–Minton-type hypergeometric series may be reduced to a finite sum. This identity contains the Karlsson–Minton summation formula and many of its known generalizations as special cases, and it also implies several Bailey-type identities for U(n) hypergeometric series, including multivariable ₁₀W₉ transformations of Denis and Gustafson and of Kajihara. Even in the one-variable case our identity is new, and even in this case its proof depends on the theory of multivariable hypergeometric series.

Summations of linear recurrent sequences

We give an extension of Sister Celine’s method of proving hypergeometric sum identities that allows it to handle a larger variety of input summands. In particular, we extend the summand to powers of a C-finite sequence times a hypergeometric term. We then apply this to several problems. Some of these applications give new results, and some reprove already known results in an automated way.

Summation formulae for elliptic hypergeometric series

Several new identities for elliptic hypergeometric series are proved. Remarkably, some of these are elliptic analogues of identities for basic hypergeometric series that are balanced but not very-well-poised.

     

Modularity and Total Ellipticity of Some Multiple Series of Hypergeometric Type

We collect some new evidence for the validity of the conjecture that every totally elliptic hypergeometric series is modular invariant and briefly discuss a generalization of such series to Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus.     

Summation theorems for multidimensional basic hypergeometric series by determinant evaluations

We derive summation formulas for a specific kind of multidimensional basic hypergeometric series associated to root systems of classical type. We proceed by combining the classical (one-dimensional) summation formulas with certain determinant evaluations. Our theorems include A_r extensions of Ramanujan's bilateral ₁ψ₁ sum, C_r extensions of Bailey's very-well-poised ₆ψ₆ summation, and a C_r extension of Jackson's very-well-poised ₈φ₇ summation formula. We also derive multidimensional extensions, associated to the classical root systems of type A_r, B_r, C_r, and D_r, respectively, of Chu's bilateral transformation formula for basic hypergeometric series of Gasper–Karlsson–Minton type. Limiting cases of our various series identities include multidimensional generalizations of many of the most important summation theorems of the classical theory of basic hypergeometric series.     

On Hypergeometric Functions and Generalizations of Legendre's Relation

We prove some convexity properties for a sum of hypergeometric functions and obtain a generalization of Legendre's relation for complete elliptic integrals. We apply these results to prove some inequalities for hypergeometric functions, incomplete beta-functions, and Legendre functions.     

Infinite summation formulas related to Riemann Zeta function from hypergeometric series

Applying Gauss and Watson’s famous hypergeometric summation theorems, the authors establish two pattern infinite summation formulas involving generalized harmonic numbers related to Riemann Zeta function.     

The Well-Poised Thread: An Organized Chronicle of Some Amazing Summations and their Implications

This paper provides an organized history of well-poised hypergeometric series. The object is to reveal the process by which a rather narrow mathematical study blossomed into a topic of widespread importance. In addition, short biographies of the early contributors are included.     

Finite Aomoto-Ito-Macdonald sums

We present finite truncations of the Aomoto-Ito-Macdonald sums associated with root systems through a two-step reduction procedure. The first reduction restricts the sum from the root lattice to a Weyl chamber; the second reduction arises after imposing a truncation condition on the parameters, and gives rise to a finite sum over a Weyl alcove.

     

Abel’s lemma on summation by parts and partial <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-series transformations

The partial sums of basic hypergeometric series are investigated by means of the modified Abel lemma on summation by parts. Several transformation and summation formulae for well-poised, quadratic, cubic and quartic q-series are established. This work was partially supported by National Natural Science Foundation for the Youth (Grant No. 10801026)     

Asymptotic behaviour of certain zero-balanced hypergeometric series

In this paper an attempt has been made to give a very simple method of extending certain results of Ramanujan, Evans and Stanton on obtaining the asymptotic behaviour of a class of zero-balanced hypergeometric series. A more recent result of Saigo and Srivastava has also been used to obtain a Ramanujan type of result for a partial sum of a zero-balanced₄F₃ (1) and similar other partial series of higher order.     

Multidimensional Matrix Inversions and Ar and Dr Basic Hypergeometric Series

We compute the inverse of a specific infinite r-dimensional matrix, thus unifying multidimensional matrix inversions recently found by Milne, Lilly, and Bhatnagar. Our inversion is an r-dimensional extension of a matrix inversion previously found by Krattenthaler. We also compute the inverse of another infinite r-dimensional matrix. As applications of our matrix inversions, we derive new summation formulas for multidimensional basic hypergeometric series.     

Some Cubic Summation and Transformation Formulas

q-Analogues of two cubic summation formulas that have recently caught the attention of Bill Gosper are found by first showing their connection with the q-binomial formula and then using some known transformation formulas. We also find a q-extension of a cubic transformation formula involving Gauss' hypergeometric function, which turns out to be a relation between balanced and very-well-poised 109 series.     

Further bibasic hypergeometric transformations and their applications

In this paper, we give several new transformation formulae and generalize one result obtained by Singh [U.B. Singh, Certain bibasic hypergeometric transformations and their applications, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 201 (1996) 44-56] with the help of Bailey's transform. Further, some new multiple series identities of the Rogers-Ramanujan type are established.
