AbstractWe study a class of generalized hypergeometric functions in several variables introduced by A. Korânyi. It is shown that the generalized Gaussian hypergeometric function is the unique solution of a system partial differential equations. Analogues of some classical results such as Kummer relations and Euler integral representations are established. Asymptotic behavior of generalized hypergeometric functions is obtained which includes some known estimates.

The article considers direct and inverse problems of a system of nonlinear differential equations. Such problems are often found in various fields of science, especially in medicine, chemistry and economics. One of the main methods for solving nonlinear differential equations is the numerical method. The initial direct problem is solved by the Rune-Kutta method with second accuracy and graphs of the numerical solution are shown. The inverse problem of finding the coefficients of a system of nonlinear differential equations with additional information on solving the direct problem is posed. The numerical solution of this inverse problem is reduced to minimizing the objective functional. One of the methods that is applicable to nonsmooth and noisy functionals, unconditional optimization of the functional of several variables, which does not use the gradient of the functional, is the Nelder-Mead method. The article presents the NellerMead algorithm. And also a numerical solution of the inverse problem is shown.

In this article we investigate the meromorphic differential equation X′(z) = A(z) X(z), often abbreviated by [A], where A(z) is a matrix (all matrices we consider have dimensions 2 × 2) meromorphic at infinity, i.e. holomorphic in a punctured neighbourhood of infinity with at most a pole there. Moreover, X(z) denotes a fundamental solution matrix. Given a matrix T(z) which together with its inverse is meromorphic at infinity (a meromorphic transformation), then the function Y(z) = T−1(z) X(z) solves the differential equation [B] with B = T−1AT − T−1T [1,5]. This introduces an equivalence relation among meromorphic differential equations and leads to the question of finding a simple representative for each equivalence class, which, for example, is of importance for further function-theoretic examinations of the solutions. The first major achievement in this direction is marked by Birkhoff's reduction which shows that it is always possible to obtain an equivalent equation [B] where B(z) is holomorphic in ℂ ¬ {0} (throughout this article A ¬ B denotes the difference of these sets) with at most a singularity of the first kind at 0 [1, 2, 5, 6]. We call this the standard form. The question of how many further simplifications can be made will be answered in the framework of our reduction theory. For this purpose we introduce the notion of a normalized standard equation [A] (NSE) which is defined by the following conditions:(i) , where r ∈ ℕ and Ak are constant matrices, (notation: )(ii) A(z) has trace tr for some c ∈ ℂ,(iii) Ar−1 has different eigenvalues,(iv) the eigenvalues of A−1 are either incongruent modulo 1 or equal,(v) if A−1 = μI, then Ar−1 is diagonal,(vi) Ar−1 and A−1 are triangular in opposite ways,(vii) a12(z) is monic (leading coefficient equals 1) unless a12 ≡ 0; furthermore a21(z) is monic in case that a12 ≡ 0 but a21 ≢ 0.

Abstract The diagrammatic coaction maps any given Feynman graph into pairs of graphs and cut graphs such that, conjecturally, when these graphs are replaced by the corresponding Feynman integrals one obtains a coaction on the respective functions. The coaction on the functions is constructed by pairing a basis of differential forms, corresponding to master integrals, with a basis of integration contours, corresponding to independent cut integrals. At one loop, a general diagrammatic coaction was established using dimensional regularisation, which may be realised in terms of a global coaction on hypergeometric functions, or equivalently, order by order in the ϵ expansion, via a local coaction on multiple polylogarithms. The present paper takes the first steps in generalising the diagrammatic coaction beyond one loop. We first establish general properties that govern the diagrammatic coaction at any loop order. We then focus on examples of two-loop topologies for which all integrals expand into polylogarithms. In each case we determine bases of master integrals and cuts in terms of hypergeometric functions, and then use the global coaction to establish the diagrammatic coaction of all master integrals in the topology. The diagrammatic coaction encodes the complete set of discontinuities of Feynman integrals, as well as the differential equations they satisfy, providing a general tool to understand their physical and mathematical properties.
