The \(\ell\)-adic hypergeometric function and associators



Abstract: We introduce an ell-adic analogue of Gauss's hypergeometric function arising from the Galois action on the fundamental torsor of the projective line minus three points. Its definition is motivated by a relation between the KZ-equation and the hypergeometric differential equation in the complex case. We show two basic properties, analogues of Gauss's hypergeometric theorem and of Euler's transformation formula for our ell-adic function. We prove them by detecting a connection of a certain two-by-two matrix specialization of even unitary associators with the associated gamma function, which extends the result of Ohno and Zagier.
