Clausen's formula
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
In mathematics, Clausen's formula, found by Thomas Clausen (1828), expresses the square of a Gaussian hypergeometric series as a generalized hypergeometric series. It states
In particular it gives conditions for a hypergeometric series to be positive. This can be used to prove several inequalities, such as the Askey–Gasper inequality used in the proof of de Branges's theorem.
