Karlsson--Minton type hypergeometric functions on the root system \(C_{n}\) (Q1399323)

The main result is a reduction formula expressing a certain \(n\)-dimensional series, infinite in both directions, in terms of a finite multiple sum. The formula is far too complicated to reproduce here, it may be noted that it involves basic Pochhammer symbols and the Weyl denominators \[ W(z)= \prod_{1\leq j\leq k\leq n}(1- z_j z_k) \prod_{1\leq j< k\leq n} (z_j- z_k) \] for the root system \(C_n\). Some particular cases of the main theorem are studied in the final section.
