Abstract
We aim at establishing two identities contiguous to Kummer’s transformation: (1 − z)2^−aF1[ 1/2a, 1/2a + 1/2 ; b + 1/2 ; (z/1 − z)^2] = 2F1 [ a, b ; 2b ; 2z] by using two different methods. They are further applied to prove two summation formulas for the series 3F2(1), closely related to the classical Watson’s theorem due to Lavoie.
