Abstract

Article Field Theory and Polynomials Fourier Analysis Functions of a Complex Variable Mathematics and Statistics Combinatorics Mathematics Number Theory
We give a simple proof of George Andrews’s balanced 5F4 evaluation using two fundamental principles: the nth difference of a polynomial of degree less than n is zero, and a polynomial of degree n that vanishes at n+1 points is identically zero.
