Hypergeometric functions are the analytic functions defined by Taylor expansions of the shape $\sum_{n \geq 0} a_n x^n$, where $a_{n+1}/a_n$ is a rational function of $n$. This general family of functions encompasses many classical functions. The hypergeometric functions play an important role in many parts of mathematics.

Solving the quintic using the eta quotients $\frac{\eta(\tau)}{\eta(2\tau)},\,\frac{\eta(\ta...
I. Reduced quintics
The general quintic can be reduced to the one-parameter forms,
$$x^5+5x+\alpha=0\\[5pt]
x^5+5\alpha x^2-\alpha=0$$
for some generic alpha. The first is the Bring form and there are …

Hilbert's 13th Problem and series solutions for the reduced sextic, septic, and octic?
I. Reduced equations
One can eliminate 3 terms from the general quintic, sextic, septic, and octic using a Bring-Jerrard transformation to get the reduced forms in radicals,
$$x^5+(x+p) = 0$$
$$x^6+(x …

Monstrous moonshine, Dedekind eta function, and the hypergeometric function
I. Monstrous Moonshine
Let $q = e^{2\pi i\tau}$ and $\tau = \sqrt{-d}$ or $\tau = \frac{1+\sqrt{-d}}2$ for positive integer $d$. Given the Dedekind eta function $\eta(\tau)$, consider the known functi …
