<P>
 
The <em>MeijerG</em> operator provides simplifications for Meijer's G 
function. The simplifications are performed towards polynomials, 
elementary or 
special functions or (generalized) 
<A HREF=r37_0528.html>hypergeometric</A> functions. 
<P>
<P>
The <em>MeijerG</em> operator is included in the package specfn2.

syntax: </H3>
<em>MeijerG</em>(&lt;list of parameters&gt;,&lt;list of parameters&gt;, 
 &lt;argument&gt;) 
<P>
<P>
<P>
The first element of the lists has to be the list containing the 
first group (mostly called ``m'' and ``n'') of parameters. This passes 
the four parameters of a Meijer's G function implicitly via the 
length of the lists.

e.g. exponentials, logarithms, trigonometric functions, Bessel functions 
and hypergeometric functions.
