Linear transformations of Carlson's R-polynomials #
This file contains the algebraic infrastructure for [Carl77, Section 6.5].
The Pochhammer reflection identity used in the book's proof is

Scaling all Carlson variables scales their degree-n polynomial kernel by a ^ n.
Carlson's transformed Dirichlet parameters for degree n, with i chosen as the
distinguished coordinate in Relation 6.5-3.

Instances For
Carlson's transformed variables for Relation 6.5-3. The distinguished variable stays fixed and every other variable is replaced by its difference from that variable.
Instances For
The sum of Carlson's transformed parameters is 1 - b i - n.
The Pochhammer numerator of a constant vector of variables is a single Pochhammer symbol, by the multinomial Chu–Vandermonde identity.
Division-free form of Carlson's multivariate linear transformation 6.5-3.
Using the Pochhammer numerator avoids hypotheses excluding exceptional parameters. Carlson's usual identity follows after division by the relevant total-parameter Pochhammer symbols.
Induction on the degree shows that the difference has zero derivative in every node except the distinguished one. At a constant node vector, Pochhammer reflection makes it zero.
