Hypergeometric solutions for Coulomb self-energy model of uniformly charged hollow cylinder

The article aims at studying hypergeometric-type mathematical techniques based on the extension of a model previously used to describe the Coulomb self-energy of a uniformly charged a three-dimensional cylinder. The associated crossed term integral is investigated and solved by introducing a computational series built from hypergeometric-type terms for different values of parameters involved. The approach considered may be appealing for a broad audience of researchers working in mathematical physics or related disciplines.     

广义分数积分的复合与Gauss超几何函数积分的估计

In this paper, composition formulas for generalized fractional integral oper-ators involving Gauss hypergeometric function are applied to evaluating of de finite integrals involving two Gauss hypergeometric functions.     

On the Wright hypergeometric matrix functions and their fractional calculus

In this paper we focus on the Wright hypergeometric matrix functions and incomplete Wright Gauss hypergeometric matrix functions by using Pochhammer matrix symbol. We first introduce the Wright hypergeometric functions of a matrix argument and examine the convergence of these matrix functions in the unit circle, then we discuss the integral representations and differential formulas of the Wright hypergeometric matrix functions. We have also carried out a similar study process for incomplete Wright Gauss hypergeometric matrix functions. Finally, we obtain some results on the transform and fractional calculus of these Wright hypergeometric matrix functions.     

Double <Emphasis Type="Italic">SO</Emphasis>(2, 1)-integrals and formulas for Whittaker functions

With the help of some double integral bilinear functionals with homogeneous kernels defined on a pair of representation spaces of the group SO(2, 1) we obtain some functional relations for Whittaker functions and calculate the sum of one series of Gauss hypergeometric functions converging to a Whittaker function.     

Generalized Abel type integral equations with localized fractional integrals and derivatives

Generalized Abel type integral equations with Gauss, Kummer's and Humbert's confluent hypergeometric functions in the kernel and generalized Abel type integral equations with localized fractional integrals are considered. The left-hand sides of these equations are inversed by using generalized fractional derivatives. Explicit solutions of the equations in the class of locally summable functions are obtained. They are represented in terms of hypergeometric functions. Asymptotic power exponential type expansions of the generalized and localized fractional integrals are obtained. The base solutions of the generalized Abel type integral equation are given in the form of asymptotic series.     

Some properties of generalized hypergeometric coefficients

A generalization to several variables of the Gauss hypergeometric series has been given in [13]. Defining generalized hypergeometric coefficients as Schur function transforms of this series, we develop here new properties and relations possessed by these coefficients. An integral representation of the generalized hypergeometric series is developed and application to q-analog series indicated.     

Spectral properties of solutions of hypergeometric-type differential equations

The second-order differential equation σ(x)y″ + τ(x)y′ + λy = 0 is usually called equation of hypergeometric type, provided that σ, τ are polynomials of degree not higher than two and one, respectively, and λ is a constant. Their solutions are commonly known as hypergeometric-type functions (HTFs). In this work, a study of the spectrum of zeros of those HTFs for which , v , and σ, τ are independent of ν, is done within the so-called semiclassical (or WKB) approximation. Specifically, the semiclassical or WKB density of zeros of the HTFs is obtained analytically in a closed way in terms of the coefficients of the differential equation that they satisfy. Applications to the Gaussian and confluent hypergeometric functions as well as to Hermite functions are shown.     

New fractional integral formulas and kinetic model associated with the hypergeometric superhyperbolic sine function

In the paper, we consider some fractional integral formulas in terms of the Riemann–Liouville, Erdélyi–Kober type, and Weyl fractional integral operators and present the general fractional kinetic model involving the hypergeometric superhyperbolic sine function via the Gauss hypergeometric series.     

A generalization of Clausen’s identity

The paper gives an extension of Clausen’s identity to the square of any Gauss hypergeometric function. Accordingly, solutions of the related third-order linear differential equation are found in terms of certain bivariate series that can reduce to ₃F₂ series similar to those in Clausen’s identity. The general contiguous variation of Clausen’s identity is found as well. The related Chaundy’s identity is generalized without any restriction on the parameters of the Gauss hypergeometric function. The special case of dihedral Gauss hypergeometric functions is underscored.     

On Relationships Between Classical Pearson Distributions and Gauss Hypergeometric Function

In this paper, it is shown that the classical Pearson distributions and Gauss hypergeometric function satisfy a unique differential equation of hypergeometric type. Hence, they are directly related to each other. This connection leads to some new integral relations between them. For instance, two special cases of Pearson distributions, namely the generalized T distribution and Beta distribution, are considered and their direct relationships with Gauss hypergeometric function are obtained.     

Numerical methods for the computation of the confluent and Gauss hypergeometric functions

The two most commonly used hypergeometric functions are the confluent hypergeometric function and the Gauss hypergeometric function. We review the available techniques for accurate, fast, and reliable computation of these two hypergeometric functions in different parameter and variable regimes. The methods that we investigate include Taylor and asymptotic series computations, Gauss–Jacobi quadrature, numerical solution of differential equations, recurrence relations, and others. We discuss the results of numerical experiments used to determine the best methods, in practice, for each parameter and variable regime considered. We provide “roadmaps” with our recommendation for which methods should be used in each situation.     

Extended Srivastava’s triple hypergeometric <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">A,p,q</Emphasis></Subscript> function and related bounding inequalities

In this paper, motivated by certain recent extensions of the Euler’s beta, Gauss’ hypergeometric and confluent hypergeometric functions (see [4]), we extend the Srivastava’s triple hypergeometric function H _A by making use of two additional parameters in the integrand. Systematic investigation of its properties including, among others, various integral representations of Euler and Laplace type, Mellin transforms, Laguerre polynomial representation, transformation formulas and a recurrence relation, is presented. Also, by virtue of Luke’s bounds for hypergeometric functions and various bounds upon the Bessel functions appearing in the kernels of the newly established integral representations, we deduce a set of bounding inequalities for the extended Srivastava’s triple hypergeometric function H _A,p,q .     

Erdélyi-type integrals for generalized hypergeometric functions with integral parameter differences

In this paper, we extend one of Erdélyi's classical integrals for the Gauss hypergeometric functions to a special class of generalized hypergeometric functions in which certain pairs of numerator and denomiator parameters differ by positive integers. Our main results are achieved by applying the fractional integration by parts and series manipulation technique. Some special cases are also pointed out which includes a new extension of a Thomae-type transformation.     

Logarithmic concavity of series in gamma ratios

We find two-sided bounds and prove non-negativeness of Taylor coefficients for the Turán determinants of power series with coefficients involving the ratio of gamma-functions. We consider these series as functions of simultaneous shifts of the arguments of the gamma-functions located in the numerator and the denominator. The results are then applied to derive new inequalities for the Gauss hypergeometric function, the incomplete normalized beta-function and the generalized hypergeometric series. This communication continues the research of various authors who investigated logarithmic convexity and concavity of hypergeometric functions in parameters.     

Hypergeometric series with gamma product formula

We consider non-terminating Gauss hypergeometric series with one free parameter. Using various properties of hypergeometric functions we obtain some necessary conditions of arithmetic flavor for such series to admit gamma product formulas.     

Valeurs d'une fonction de Picard en des points algébriques

Using geometric tools introduced by P. Cohen, H. Shiga, J. Wolfart and G. Wüstholz, we show in Theorem 1 that when a certain Gauss hypergeometric function takes an algebraic value at an algebraic point, then another Gauss hypergeometric function takes a transcendental value at a related algebraic point. Using Appell hypergeometric functions, which generalize to two variables the Gauss functions, we study values at algebraic points of a new transcendental function defined in terms of these two functions. By Theorem 2, these values correspond to abelian varieties in the same isogeny class. Using a result of Edixhoven-Yafaev [B. Edixhoven, A. Yafaev, Subvarieties of Shimura varieties, Ann. of Math. 157 (2003) 621-645], this last result is in turn related to the distribution of the moduli of such abelian varieties in certain Shimura varieties.     

Analytic continuation of the Appell function <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript> and integration of the associated system of equations in the logarithmic case

The Appell function F ₁ (i.e., a generalized hypergeometric function of two complex variables) and a corresponding system of partial differential equations are considered in the logarithmic case when the parameters of F ₁ are related in a special way. Formulas for the analytic continuation of F ₁ beyond the unit bicircle are constructed in which F ₁ is determined by a double hypergeometric series. For the indicated system of equations, a collection of canonical solutions are presented that are two-dimensional analogues of Kummer solutions well known in the theory of the classical Gauss hypergeometric equation. In the logarithmic case, the canonical solutions are written as generalized hypergeometric series of new form. The continuation formulas are derived using representations of F ₁ in the form of Barnes contour integrals. The resulting formulas make it possible to efficiently calculate the Appell function in the entire range of its variables. The results of this work find a number of applications, including the problem of parameters of the Schwarz–Christoffel integral.     

π and the hypergeometric functions of complex argument

Text

In this article we derive some new identities concerning π, algebraic radicals and some special occurrences of the Gauss hypergeometric function ₂F₁ in the analytic continuation. All of them have been derived by tackling some elliptic or hyperelliptic known integral, and looking for another representation of it by means of hypergeometric functions like those of Gauss, Appell or Lauricella. In any case we have focused on integrand functions having at least one couple of complex-conjugate roots. Founding upon a special hyperelliptic reduction formula due to Hermite (1876) [6], π is obtained as a ratio of a complete elliptic integral and the four-variable Lauricella function. Furthermore, starting with a certain binomial integral, we succeed in providing as a ratio of a linear combination of complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds to the Appell hypergeometric function of two complex-conjugate arguments. Each of the formulae we found theoretically has been satisfactorily tested by means of Mathematica^®.

An alternative method to obtain integral kernels for Lamé integral equations

In the present paper we introduce an alternative approach to obtain kernels for Lamé integral equations. The introduced procedure, based solely on simple algebraic manipulations, furnishes the well known kernels of hypergeometric form in an almost trivial manner without the use of transformations. More important, it provides a set of novel nuclei for Lamé integral equations in the form of Heun functions.     

Hypergeometric Functions as Infinite-Soliton Tau Functions

It is known that resonant multisoliton solutions depend on higher times and a set of parameters (integrals of motion). We show that soliton tau functions of the Toda lattice (and of the multicomponent Toda lattice) are tau functions of a dual hierarchy, where the higher times and the parameters (integrals of motion) exchange roles. The multisoliton solutions turn out to be rational solutions of the dual hierarchy, and the infinite-soliton tau functions turn out to be hypergeometric-type tau functions of the dual hierarchy. The variables in the dual hierarchies exchange roles. Soliton momenta are related to the Frobenius coordinates of partitions in the decomposition of rational solutions with respect to Schur functions. As an example, we consider partition functions of matrix models: their perturbation series is, on one hand, a hypergeometric tau function and, on the other hand, can be interpreted as an infinite-soliton solution. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 146, No. 2, pp. 222–250, February, 2006.
