Basic Hypergeometric Series - Simple Series

Simple Series

Some simple series expressions include

\frac{z}{1-q} \;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}
q \; q \\
q^2 \end{matrix}\; ; q,z \right] =
\frac{z}{1-q}
+ \frac{z^2}{1-q^2}
+ \frac{z^3}{1-q^3}
+ \ldots

and

\frac{z}{1-q^{1/2}} \;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}
q \; q^{1/2} \\
q^{3/2} \end{matrix}\; ; q,z \right] =
\frac{z}{1-q^{1/2}}
+ \frac{z^2}{1-q^{3/2}}
+ \frac{z^3}{1-q^{5/2}}
+ \ldots

and

\;_{2}\phi_1 \left[\begin{matrix}
q \; -1 \\
-q \end{matrix}\; ; q,z \right] = 1+
\frac{2z}{1+q}
+ \frac{2z^2}{1+q^2}
+ \frac{2z^3}{1+q^3}
+ \ldots.

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or series:

    Your apple face, the simple crèche
    Of your arms, the August smells
    Of your skin. Then I sorted your clothes
    And the loves you had left, Elizabeth,
    Elizabeth, until you were gone.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Every man sees in his relatives, and especially in his cousins, a series of grotesque caricatures of himself.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
