Abstract:
The Mellin transformation is used as a method for discovery of cases where the partial derivatives with respect to parameters for certain Whittaker and Bessel functions can be expressed in terms of finite sums involving these functions. These results are easily generalized to the G-function, from which, by specialization, formulas involving hypergeometric and other functions can be obtained.References
