Kernel functions for difference operators of Ruijsenaars type and their applications.
The purpose of these notes is to give a short survey of an interesting connection between partition functions of supersymmetric gauge theories and hypergeometric functions and to present the recent progress in this direction.
The paper of M. Ismail et al. [Complex Variables Theory Appl. 14 (1990), 77-84] motivates the study of a generalization of close-to-convex functions by means of a q-analog of the difference operator acting on analytic functions in the unit disk 𝔻 = {z ∈ ℂ:|z| < 1}. We use the term q-close-to-convex functions for the q-analog of close-to-convex functions. We obtain conditions on the coefficients of power series of functions analytic in the unit disk which ensure that they generate functions in...
In this paper we give an extension of -Pfaff-Saalschütz formula by means of Andrews-Askey integral. Applications of the extension are also given, which include an extension of -Chu-Vandermonde convolution formula and some other -identities.
