Abstract

Usng the Pochhammer symbol $(\lambda)_n$ given by $$ (1.1) (\lambda)_n = {1, if n = 0 {\lambda(\lambda + 1) \cdots (\lambda + n - 1), if n \in N = {1, 2, 3, \ldots}, $$ we define a general double hypergeometric series by [3, pp.27] $$ (1.2) F_{q:s;\upsilon}^{p:r;u} [\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_p : \gamma_1, \ldots, \gamma_r; \lambda_1, \ldots, \lambda_u;_{x,y}][\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_q : \delta_1, \ldots, \delta_s; \mu_1, \ldots, \mu_v; ] = \sum_{l,m = 0}^{\infty} \frac {\prod_{j=1}^{q} (\beta_j)_{l+m} \prod_{j=1}^{s} (\delta_j)_l \prod_{j=1}^{v} (\mu_j)_m)}{\prod_{j=1}^{p} (\alpha_j)_{l+m} \prod_{j=1}^{r} (\gamma_j)_l \prod_{j=1}^{u} (\lambda_j)_m} \frac{l!}{x^l} \frac{m!}{y^m} $$ provided that the double series converges.
