  Hypergeometric series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, a hypergeometric series is a power series in which the ratios of successive coefficients k is a rational function of k.
Thus, by convention, the use of the term hypergeometric series is usually restricted to the case where the series defines an actual analytic function with a non-zero radius of convergence.
Applications of hypergeometric series includes the inversion of elliptic integrals; these are constructed by taking the ratio of the two linearly independent solutions of the hypergeometric differential equation to form Schwarz-Christoffel maps of the fundamental domain to the complex projective line or Riemann sphere.

In mathematics, a hypergeometric series is the sum of a sequence of terms in which the ratios of successive coefficients k is a rational function of k.
Series may be finite, or infinite; in the first case they may be handled with elementary algebra, but infinite series require tools from mathematical analysis if they are to be applied in anything more than a tentative way.
Series for the expansion of sines and cosines, of multiple arcs in powers of the sine and cosine of the arc had been treated by Jakob Bernoulli (1702) and his brother Johann Bernoulli (1701) and still earlier by Viète.

 Hypergeometric function identities - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, hypergeometric identities are equalities involving sums over hypergeometric terms, i.e.
There are two definitions of hypergeometric terms, both used in different cases as explained below.
These algorithms first find a simple expression for a sum over hypergeometric terms and then provide a certificate which anyone could use to easily check and prove the correctness of the identity.

 Basic Hypergeometric Series - Cambridge University Press   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The first five chapters cover basic hypergeometric series and integrals, whilst the next five are devoted to applications in various areas including Askey-Wilson integrals and orthogonal polynomials, partitions in number theory, multiple series, orthogonal polynomials in several variables, and generating functions.
Chapters 9-11 are new for the second edition, the final chapter containing a simplified version of the main elements of the theta and elliptic hypergeometric series as a natural extension of the single-base q-series.
After a gentle introduction to basic series and some special cases (such as the ‘q’-binomial theorem) the authors bring the reader up to the latest results on the general theory and its extensions, many such results are due to them.

The notation used in this paper is the standard notation of Gasper and Rahman~\cite{6} for hypergeometric series ${}_pF_q$ and basic hypergeometric series ${}_p\Phi_q$; for double hypergeometric series (or their basic analogues) we shall use a notation which is close to that of Srivastava and Karlsson~\cite{24}.
\section{Other hypergeometric series and basic analogues} The invariance groups of series transformations are thus obtained by iteration of known transformation formulas, together with the trivial numerator and denominator permutations.
The $q$-analogue of Thomae's transformation is Sears's transformation~\cite{17} for the ${}_3\Phi_2$ series.

These series were first studied systematically by Heine, but many early results are attributed to Euler, Gauss, and Jacobi.
A bilateral series, formed from this function, is summed as an infinite product, thereby providing an elegant and fruitful result which goes back to Ramanujan.
He also touches on general transformation theory for basic series in many variables and the basic multinomial, which is a generalization of a finite sum.

Hypergeometric series are used to approximate many important constants, such as $e$ and Apery's constant $\zeta (3)$.
One traditional method to evaluate such series is binary splitting, a divide-and-conquer algorithm followed by integer division.
The space complexity of our algorithm is the same as a bound on size of the reduced numerator and denominator of the series approximation.

In recent years I discovered a few Euler product transforms which apply to basic hypergeometric series (q-series).
I found that applying the transforms to well known results such as the q-binomial theorem, or to results like Heine's q-series version of the Gauss hypergeometric series, led me to new sums of Dirichlet series.
Some examples of cases of the D-analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric series summation (and also for the "Heine q-summation") are

The purpose of this talk is to survey the transformation theory of $U(n+1)$ multiple basic hypergeometric series---starting with the $U(n+1)$ terminating very-well-poised $_6\phi_5$ summation theorems.
These series were strongly motivated by L. Biedenharn and J. Louck and coworkers mathematical physics research involving angular momentum theory and the unitary groups $U(n+1)$, or equivalently $A_n$.
Our $16$ and $24$ squares identities were originally obtained via multiple basic hypergeometric series, Gustafson's $C_{\ell}$ nonterminating ${}_6\phi_5$ summation theorem, and Andrews' basic hypergeometric series proof of Jacobi's $2$, $4$, $6$, and $8$ squares identities.

A hypergeometric series $F$ depends on of two sets: parameters $A=(a_1, a_2,..., a_N)$ and variables $X=(x_1, x_2,..., x_n)$.
A classical problem: For which sets of parameters the series $F$ can be written as a series $G$ with a lesser number of parameters $B=(b_1, b_2,..., b_M)$ and variables $Y=(y_1, y_2,..., y_m)$ where elements of $B$'s are rational expressions in $a_i$'s and elements of $Y$ are rational expressions in $y_j$'s.
