tfp.math.hypergeometric.hyp2f1_small_argument

Compute the Hypergeometric function 2f1(a, b, c, z) when |z| <= 1.

tfp.math.hypergeometric.hyp2f1_small_argument(
    a, b, c, z, name=None
)

Given a, b, c and z, compute Gauss' Hypergeometric Function, specified by the series:

1 + (a * b/c) * z + (a * (a + 1) * b * (b + 1) / ((c * (c + 1)) * z**2 / 2 + ... (a)_n * (b)_n / (c)_n * z ** n / n! + ....

a Floating-point Tensor, broadcastable with b, c, z. Parameter for the numerator of the series fraction.
b Floating-point Tensor, broadcastable with a, c, z. Parameter for the numerator of the series fraction.
c Floating-point Tensor, broadcastable with a, b, z. Parameter for the denominator of the series fraction.
z Floating-point Tensor, broadcastable a, b, c. Value to compute 2F1(a, b, c, z) at. Only values of |z| < 1 are allowed.
name A name for the operation (optional). Default value: None (i.e., 'continued_fraction').
