The following four functions of two real or complex variables $x$ and $y$ cannot be expressed as a product of two ${{}_{2}F_{1}}$ functions, in general, but they satisfy partial differential equations that resemble the hypergeometric differential equation (15.10.1):

Here and elsewhere it is assumed that neither of the bottom parameters $\gamma$ and $\gamma^{\prime}$ is a nonpositive integer.

For large parameter asymptotics see López et al. (2013a, b), and Ferreira et al. (2013a, b).
