Several authors [1, 5, 9] have investigated the algebraic and transcendental values of the Gaussian hypergeometric series(formula here)for rational parameters a, b, c and algebraic and rational values of z ∈ (0, 1). This led to several new identities such as(formula here)and(formula here)where Γ(x) denotes the gamma function. It was pointed out by the present authors [6] that these results, and others like it, could be derived simply by combining certain classical F transformation formulae with the singular values of the complete elliptic integral of the first kind K(k), where k denotes the modulus.Here, we pursue the methods used in [6] to produce further examples of the type (1·2) and (1·3). Thus, we find the following results:(formula here)The result (1·6) is of particular interest because the argument and value of the F function are both rational.

In two previous papers [7, 10] the algebraic and transcendental values of the Gauss hypergeometric seriesF(a, b; c; z) = 1+abcz1!+a(a+1)b(b+1)c(c+1)z22!+… (1·1)were investigated, for various real rational parameters a; b; c and algebraic and rational values of z ∈ (0, 1), by applying the singular values of the complete elliptic integral of the first kind K(k) to certain classical F transformation formulae, where k denotes the modulus. Our main aim in the present paper is to use similar methods to determine the special values of (1·1) for the case a = 112, b = 712 and c = 23.

In this paper, we explicitly evaluate certain special values of [Formula: see text] hypergeometric series. These evaluations are based on some summation transformation formulas of Gaussian hypergeometric series. We find expressions of the number of points on certain algebraic curves over [Formula: see text] in terms of Gaussian hypergeometric series, which play the vital role in deducing the transformation results.

Let λ ∈ ℚ\{0, -1} and l ≥ 2. Denote by Cl, λ the nonsingular projective algebraic curve over ℚ with affine equation given by [Formula: see text] In this paper, we give a relation between the number of points on Cl, λ over a finite field and Gaussian hypergeometric series. We also give an alternate proof of a result of [D. McCarthy, 3F2 Hypergeometric series and periods of elliptic curves, Int. J. Number Theory6(3) (2010) 461–470]. We find some special values of 3F2 and 2F1 Gaussian hypergeometric series. Finally we evaluate the value of 3F2(4) which extends a result of [K. Ono, Values of Gaussian hypergeometric series, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc.350(3) (1998) 1205–1223].

For d ≥ 2, denote by Pd(x) the polynomial over 𝔽q given by [Formula: see text]. We explicitly find the number of solutions in 𝔽q of the polynomial equation Pd(x) = 0 in terms of special values of dFd-1 and d-1Fd-2 Gaussian hypergeometric series with characters of orders d and d - 1 as parameters. This solves a problem posed by K. Ono (see p. 204 in [Web of Modularity : Arithmetic of the Coefficients of Modular Forms and q-Series, CBMS Regional Conference Series in Mathematics, No. 102 (American Mathematical Society, Providence, RI, 2004)]) on special values of n+1Fn Gaussian hypergeometric series for n > 2.

Abstract This paper considers the representation of odd moments of the distribution of a four-step uniform random walk in even dimensions, which are based on both linear combinations of two constants representable as contiguous very well-poised generalized hypergeometric series and as even moments of the square of the complete elliptic integral of the first kind. Neither constants are currently available in closed form. New symmetries are found in the critical values of the L-series of two underlying cusp forms, providing a sense in which one of the constants has a formal counterpart. The significant roles this constant and its counterpart play in multidisciplinary contexts is described. The results unblock the problem of representing them in terms of lower-order generalized hypergeometric series, offering progress towards identifying their closed forms. The same approach facilitates a canonical characterization of the hypergeometry of the parbelos, adding to the characterizations outlined by Campbell, D'Aurozio and Sondow (2020, The American Mathematical Monthly127(1), 23-32). The paper also connects the econometric problem of characterizing the bias in the canonical autoregressive model under the unit root hypothesis to very well-poised generalized hypergeometric series. The confluence of ideas presented reflects a multidisciplinarity that accords with the approach and philosophy of Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis.

Abstract Using modern multiloop calculation methods, we derive the analytical expressions for the total cross sections of the processes e−γ →$$ {e}^{-}X\overline{X} $$ e − X X ¯ with X = μ, γ or e at arbitrary energies. For the first two processes our results are expressed via classical polylogarithms. The cross section of e−γ → e−e−e+ is represented as a one-fold integral of complete elliptic integral K and logarithms. Using our results, we calculate the threshold and high-energy asymptotics and compare them with available results.
