Euler transformations of Carlson's R-function #
Carlson's Theorem 6.8-3 is proved on the full product slit plane and for arbitrary complex exponents and Dirichlet parameters, in the entire regularized normalization. The proof first reflects the beta integral on right-half-plane nodes, then uses permanence of functional relations in the parameters and in the nodes. Theorem 6.8-4's additional equal-parameter regularization remains a separate task.
Taking reciprocals preserves the right-half-plane node domain.
Reflection of the beta integral, with principal branches controlled by positivity of the real parts of each factor.
Euler's transformation (Carlson 6.8-3), entire in the exponent and every Dirichlet parameter. No Gamma-regularity or convergence assumptions are needed.
Euler inversion (Carlson's Theorem 6.8-3) on the full product slit plane, for all complex exponents and Dirichlet parameters.
