Extract

In a recent paper (2) I gave some integrals which represented general transformations of hypergeometric series of both ordinary and basic types. In this paper I give the most general form of this kind of integral, from which all the previously known general basic transformations can be deduced.

In the usual notation for basic series,

where x may be a function of n, for example,

and Π is written for ‘Idem (a; b)' means that the expression immediately preceding is to be repeated with b written in place of a and a written in place of b.
