“…On the other hand, in [22] the authors derived some inequalities for the Gauss hypergeometric function 2 F 1 (σ, a; b, x) when −1 < a < 0, 1 < b < 2, 0 < σ < 1, and x ∈ (0, 1). We remark that when a is a negative integer or zero, the estimate of the polynomial 2 F 1 (a, σ; b; x) has been considered in several papers from different point of views (see for instance [7,8] and references therein)…”
