There are in the literature a great number of identities for the Meijer-G function. On the other hand, when more complex expressions arise, the latter function is not capable of representing them. The H-function is an alternative to overcome this issue, as it is a generalization of the Meijer-G function. In the present paper, a new identity for the H-function is derived. In short, this result enables one to split a particular H-function into the sum of two other H-functions. The new relation in addition to an old result are applied to the summation of hypergeometric series. Finally, some relations between H-functions and elementary functions are built", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-07T08:27:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C60", "33C20", "33C70" ], "keywords": [ "hypergeometric series", "h-function", "applications", "meijer-g function", "perform symbolic manipulation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
