Simplification of Kampé de Fériet function

I was dealing with a convolution type integral $$ \int^z_0 t^m {}_0F_1(;1;-t) \: {}_2F_3\Big( 1,1;2,m,m+1 ; -a t\Big) \:\mathrm{d}t $$ By applying one of the identities in Exton's book, the solution ...

What type of Hypergeometric series is this?

I am trying to find a closed form for the series $$ \sum^\infty_{n=0} \frac{1}{n!} \frac{1}{n+1}(-z)^n {}_2F_2\left(m,n+1;\frac{1}{2},n+2; b z\right)$$ $m$ is a nonzero positive integer, and $b$, ...

How to prove this identity for ${}_3F_2$ (Generalized Hypergeometric Function)?

This may look like homework, but it is not. I've found this identity (using Mathematica): $$ {}_3F_2 \left( \matrix{1,1,1 \\ 2, e} ; 1 \right) = (e-1) \psi^{\prime}(e-1), $$ valid for $e$ with ...

$_{1}{{F}_{1}}\left( 1,c,(a+b)x \right)-\, _{1}{{F}_{1}}\left( 1,c,ax \right)=(?)$

I am looking for: $$_{1}{{F}_{1}}\left( 1,c,(a+b)x \right)-\, _{1}{{F}_{1}}\left( 1,c,ax \right)=(?)$$ where $x$ is between $0$ and $T$ and $a,b,c>0$. I know the asymptotic behavior as $x$ goes ...

Infinite series of Hypergeometric function

Any ideas how to find a closed form for the sum given by: $$ \sum^\infty_{n=0} \frac{1}{n!} \frac{a^n b^{n+m}}{(m+n)^2 \Gamma(m+n)} {}_2F_2 \left(m+n,m+n;m+n+1,m+n+1;-b\right) $$ Given that both $a$ ...

Bounds on $ \sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac{a..\left( a+n-1 \right)}{\left( a+b \right)…\left( a+b+n-1 \right)}\frac{{{z}^{n}}}{n!}}$

I have a confluent hypergeometric function as $ _{1}{{F}_{1}}\left( a,a+b,z \right)$ where $z<0$ and $a,b>0$ and integer. I am interested to find the bounds on the value it can take or an ...

Integration over a combination of confluent hypergeometric, power, and exponential functions

I am trying to work out this integral. If there is no closed form, can you think of any approximations to it? $$\int_0^T e^{a (T-x)} (T-x)^{1+m+n} x^k \, _1F_1\Big(1+n;2+m+n;a (x-T) \Big) \, dx$$ ...

Why is a factorial always present in the denominator of the hypergeometric function?

The sum definition of the generalized hypergeometric function is: $${_p}F_q (a_1, \dots, a_p;b_1, \dots,b_q;z)=\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(a_1)_k (a_2)_k\cdots (a_p)_k z^k}{(b_1)_k (b_2)_k\cdots ...
