§15.16 Products

ⓘ

Keywords:: hypergeometric function, products, series expansions
Notes:: See Burchnall and Chaundy (1940, 1948) and Elliott (1903). For (15.16.4) use (15.8.2) and (15.8.4), combined with (15.8.1) to show that the left-hand side of (15.16.4) is an entire function of $z$ . Then apply Liouville’s theorem (§1.9(iii)).
