Abstract:

Mubeen et al. obtained Kummer's first transformation for the k-hypergeometric function. The aim of this note is to provide the Euler-type first transformation for the k-hypergeometric function. As a limiting case, we recover the results of Mubeen et al. In addition to this, an alternate and easy derivation of Kummer's first transformation for the k-hypergeometric function is also given.
