Transformation formulae for terminating balanced $_4F_3$-series and implications
Transformation formulae for terminating balanced $_4F_3$-series and implications
A new transformation from terminating balanced $_4F_3$-series to $_3F_2$-series is proved that contains a few known summation formulae as special cases. By means of Whipple's transformation, further closed form evaluations are given for terminating well--poised $_7F_6$-series as applications.
