• Sommario/riassunto: The various types of special functions have become essential tools for scientists and engineers. One of the important classes of special functions is of the hypergeometric type. It includes all classical hypergeometric functions such as the well-known Gaussian hypergeometric functions, the Bessel, Macdonald, Legendre, Whittaker, Kummer, Tricomi and Wright functions, the generalized hypergeometric functions ? Fq , Meijer's G -function, Fox's H -function, etc. Application of the new special functions allows one to increase considerably the number of problems whose solutions are found in a closed
