Generalized Hypergeometric Functions

GeneralizedHypergeometric Functions explores the way in which hypergeometric functionsare interlinked with special functions, and it uses group theory to illustratethese relationships. The application of group theory to the study of specialfunctions is a relatively new approach to the subject area. It is a departurefrom most of the standard text books, which deal with the special functions asdisjointed chapters, with each chapter dealing with the properties of the givenspecial function.
