    Abstract

    The aim in this note is to obtain new hypergeometric forms for the functions (Formula presented) where b is an arbitrary parameter, in terms of Gauss hypergeometric functions. An application of these results (Formula presented) is made to obtain the hypergeometric form of the roots of the cubic equation (Formula presented)This complements the entry in the compendium of Prudnikov et al. on page 472, entry (68) of the table, where only the middle root (either real or purely imaginary) is given in hypergeometric form.
