Math. Anal. Appl. 443(2016), 116--122). The main goal of this note is to present a generalization of a particular case of their identity when the generalized hypergeometric function is reduced to the Kummer function 1F1. Our generalized formula contains an additional integer shift in the bottom parameter of the Kummer function. The key ingredient of the proof is a summation formula for the Clausen series 3F2(1) with two integral parameter differences of opposite sign. In the ultimate section of the paper we prove another formula for a particular product difference of the Kummer functions in terms of a linear combination of these functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-10-22T05:07:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "33C15", "33C20" ], "keywords": [ "generalized hypergeometric function", "kummer function 1f1", "additional integer shift", "clausen series 3f2", "integral parameter differences" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
