Sum of squared hypergeometric polynomials

The identity can also be shown without divergences using generating functions, as suggested in the comment of @TimothyBudd above. Using the generating functions \begin{align} \tag{1a}\label{eq:1a} f(u,...

Sum of squared hypergeometric polynomials

I think the proof below should work. Although it looks more complicated than the one of Fred Hucht, it doesn't involve divergent series. I write \begin{equation}\tag{1}S(t)=\sum_{m=1}^\infty\frac {t^m}...

Sum of squared hypergeometric polynomials

The identity can be derived by differentiating both sides with respect to $u$: The rhs \begin{align}\tag{1}\label{eq:1} R(u)=\frac 1 4-\frac 1 2 \log u \end{align} simply gives \begin{align}\tag{2}\...
