General $q$-series transformations based on Abel's lemma on summation by parts and their applications (2307.07968v3)

Abstract: In this paper, we establish three new and general transformations with sixteen parameters and bases via Abel's lemma on summation by parts. As applications, we set up a lot of new transformations of basic hypergeometric series. Among include some new results of Gasper and Rahman's quadratic, cubic, and quartic transformations. Furthermore, we put forward the so-called $(R,S)$-type transformation with arbitrary degree to unify such multibasic transformations. Some special $(R,S)$-type transformations are presented.
