${\displaystyle \displaystyle (a;q,p)_{n}=\theta (a;p)\theta (aq;p)...\theta (aq^{n-1};p)}$

${\displaystyle \displaystyle (a_{1},...,a_{m};q,p)_{n}=(a_{1};q,p)_{n}\cdots (a_{m};q,p)_{n}}$

The theta hypergeometric series _r+1E_r is defined by

${\displaystyle \displaystyle {}_{r+1}E_{r}(a_{1},...a_{r+1};b_{1},...,b_{r};q,p;z)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {(a_{1},...,a_{r+1};q;p)_{n}}{(q,b_{1},...,b_{r};q,p)_{n}}}z^{n}}$

${\displaystyle \displaystyle {}_{r}G_{r}(a_{1},...a_{r};b_{1},...,b_{r};q,p;z)=\sum _{n=-\infty }^{\infty }{\frac {(a_{1},...,a_{r};q;p)_{n}}{(b_{1},...,b_{r};q,p)_{n}}}z^{n}}$

The elliptic numbers are defined by

${\displaystyle [a;\sigma ,\tau ]={\frac {\theta _{1}(\pi \sigma a,e^{\pi i\tau })}{\theta _{1}(\pi \sigma ,e^{\pi i\tau })}}}$

where the Jacobi theta function is defined by

${\displaystyle \theta _{1}(x,q)=\sum _{n=-\infty }^{\infty }(-1)^{n}q^{(n+1/2)^{2}}e^{(2n+1)ix}}$

The additive elliptic shifted factorials are defined by

• ${\displaystyle [a;\sigma ,\tau ]_{n}=[a;\sigma ,\tau ][a+1;\sigma ,\tau ]...[a+n-1;\sigma ,\tau ]}$
• ${\displaystyle [a_{1},...,a_{m};\sigma ,\tau ]=[a_{1};\sigma ,\tau ]...[a_{m};\sigma ,\tau ]}$

The additive theta hypergeometric series _r+1e_r is defined by

${\displaystyle \displaystyle {}_{r+1}e_{r}(a_{1},...a_{r+1};b_{1},...,b_{r};\sigma ,\tau ;z)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {[a_{1},...,a_{r+1};\sigma$ ;\tau ]_{n}}{[1,b_{1},...,b_{r};\sigma ,\tau ]_{n}}}z^{n}}

The additive very well poised theta hypergeometric series _r+1v_r is defined by

${\displaystyle \displaystyle {}_{r+1}v_{r}(a_{1};a_{6},...a_{r+1};\sigma ,\tau ;z)=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {[a_{1}+2n;\sigma ,\tau ]}{[a_{1};\sigma ,\tau ]}}{\frac {[a_{1},a_{6},...,a_{r+1};\sigma ,\tau ]_{n}}{[1,1+a_{1}-a_{6},...,1+a_{1}-a_{r+1};\sigma ,\tau ]_{n}}}z^{n}}$
