The hypergeometric function F(a,b;c;z) is defined by
F(a,b;c;z)=K∫01tb−1(1−t)c−b−1(1−tz)−adt
where ∣arg(1−tz)∣<π and K is a constant determined by the condition F(a,b;c;0)=1.
(i) Express K in terms of Gamma functions.
(ii) By considering the nth derivative F(n)(a,b;c;0), show that F(a,b;c;z)=F(b,a;c;z).
