called a Gaussian hypergeometric series, it is a hypergeometric differential equation

       

, and within single-value parsing .

       

                                                      

is an analytical expansion of a Gaussian hypergeometric series into the removed plane, also known as a hypergeometric function .

[ Integral expressions for hypergeometric functions ]

   

                               

The integration route should be selected so that the pole of the function is on the left side of the route, and the pole of the function is on the right side of the route .

This integral is called the Barnes integral representation .

2.      Kummer function (confluent hypergeometric function)

 

[ Kummer function and its integral expression ]   series

   

is called the Kummer function (or confluent hypergeometric function), which is an integral function of the variables and parameters , respectively . It satisfies the Kummer differential equation

                         

Its integral expression has

   

                            

   

                                  

The selection of the integral route should make the pole of the function on the left side of the integral route and the pole on the right side of the integral route . This formula is called the Barnes integral representation .
