Abstract: | By using divided differences, we derive two different ways of representing the Lauricella function of n variables FD(n)(a,b1,b2,...,bn;c;x1,x2,...,xn) as a finite sum, for b1,b2,...,bn positive integers, and a,c both positive integers or both positive rational numbers with c–a a positive integer.AMS subject classification 33D45, 40B05, 40C99Jieqing Tan: Research supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant No. 10171026 and Anhui Provincial Natural Science Foundation under Grant No. 03046102.Ping Zhou: Corresponding author.
