Abstract

I show that a hypergeometric function p q F (a1, . . . , ap; b1, . . . , bq; ·) with p ≤ q belongs to the Laguerre–P´olya class LP + for arbitrarily large bp+1, . . . , bq > 0 if and only if, after a possible reordering, the differences ai −bi are nonnegative integers. This result arises as an easy corollary of the case p = q proven two decades ago by Ki and Kim. I also give explicit examples for the case 1 2 F .
