Exton introduced 20 distinct triple hypergeometric functions whose names are $X_i$ (i = 1, ${\ldots}$, 20) to investigate their twenty Laplace integral representations whose kernels include the confluent hypergeometric functions $_0F_1$, $_1F_1$, a Humbert function ${\Psi}_1$, and a Humbert function ${\Phi}_2$. The object of this paper is to present 18 new integral representations of Euler type for the Exton hypergeometric function $X_8$, whose kernels include the Exton functions ($X_2$, $X_8$) itself, the Horn's function $H_4$, the Gauss hypergeometric function $F$, and Lauricella hypergeometric function $F_C$. We also provide a system of partial differential equations satisfied by $X_8$.

The well known quadratic transformation formula due to Gauss: $$(1-x)^{-2a}{_2F_1}\[{{a,b;}\\\hfill{21}{2b;}}\;-\frac{4x}{(1-x)^2}\]={_2F_1}\[{{a,a-b+\frac{1}{2};}\\\hfill{65}{b+\frac{1}{2};}}\;x^2\]$$ plays an important role in the theory of (generalized) hypergeometric series. In 2001, Rathie and Kim have obtained two results closely related to the above quadratic transformation for $_2F_1$. Our main objective of this paper is to deduce some interesting known or new results for the series $_2F_1(x)$ by using the above Gauss's quadratic transformation and its contiguous relations and then apply our results to provide a list of a large number of integrals involving confluent hypergeometric functions, some of which are (presumably) new. The results established here are (potentially) useful in mathematics, physics, statistics, engineering, and so on.

In the theory of hypergeometric functions of one or several variables, a remarkable amount of mathematicians's concern has been given to develop their transformation formulas and summation identities. Here we aim at presenting explicit expressions (in a single form) of the following weighted Appell's function $F_1$: $$(1+2x)^{-a}(1+2z)^{-b}F_1\;\(c,\;a,\;b;\;2c+j;\;\frac{4x}{1+2x},\;\frac{4z}{1+2z}\)\;(j=0,\;{\pm}1,\;{\ldots},\;{\pm}5)$$ in terms of Exton's triple hypergeometric $X_9$. The results are derived with the help of generalizations of Kummer's second theorem very recently provided by Kim et al. A large number of very interesting special cases including Exton's result are also given.

In this present paper, we consider four integrals and differentials containing the Gauss' hypergeometric ₂F₁(x) function in the kernels, which extend the classical Riemann-Liouville (R-L) and Erdélyi-Kober (E-K) fractional integral and differential operators. Formulas (images) for compositions of such generalized fractional integrals and differential constructions with the n-times product of the generalized modified Bessel function of the second type are established. The results are obtained in terms of the generalized Lauricella function or Srivastava-Daoust hypergeometric function. Equivalent assertions for the Riemann-Liouville (R-L) and Erdélyi-Kober (E-K) fractional integral and differential are also deduced.

We use some known contiguous function relations for $_2F_1$ to show how simply the following three recurrence relations for Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta)}(x)$: (i) $({\alpha}+{\beta}+n)P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta})}(x)=({\beta}+n)P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta}-1)}(x)+({\alpha}+n)P_n^{({\alpha}-1,{\beta})}(x);$ (ii) $2P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta})}(x)=(1+x)P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta}+1)}(x)+(1-x)P_n^{({\alpha}+1,{\beta})}(x);$ (iii) $P_{n-1}^{({\alpha},{\beta})}(x)=P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta}-1)}(x)+P_n^{({\alpha}-1,{\beta})}(x)$ can be established.

The objective of this paper is to present 87 recurrence relations for the Jacobi polynomials $P_n^{({\alpha},{\beta})}(x)$. The results presented here most of which are presumably new are obtained with the help of Gauss's fifteen contiguous function relations and some other identities recently recorded in the literature.
