In this study, we investigate a new natural extension of hypergeometric functions with the two parameters p and k which is so called (p, k)-extended hypergeometric functions”. In particular, we introduce the (p, k)-extended Gauss and Kummer (or confluent) hypergeometric functions. The basic properties of the (p, k)-extended Gauss and Kummer hypergeometric functions, including convergence properties, integral and derivative formulas, contiguous function relations and differential equations. Since the latter functions contain many of the familiar special functions as sub-cases, this extension is enriches theory of k-special functions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
