Abstract :
The hypergeometric function plays an important role in mathematical analysis and its application. Gauss defined two hypergeometric functions to be contiguous if they have the same power-series variable, if two of the parameters are pairwise equal, and if the third pair differs by ±1. He showed that a hypergeometric function and any two other contiguous to it are linearly related. In this paper, we present an interesting formula as a linear relation of three shifted Gauss polynomials in the three parameters a1,a2 and a3. More precisely, we obtained a recurrence relation including for any arbitrary integers α1,α2 and α3.
