Apr 6, 2015 at 19:28 comment added Suvrit I think the answer should be "yes", unless I'm misunderstanding. My motivation are the identities: $I_0(z)=M(1/2,1,2z)e^{-z}$ and $\text{erf}(z)=2z M(1/2,3/2,-z^2)/\sqrt{\pi}$, where $M()$ is the confluent hypergeometric function (1F1).
Apr 6, 2015 at 19:25 comment added Stopple Is there any motivation for this?
