Appell series over finite fields and modular forms. (English) Zbl 1535.33014

The author finds finite field analogues of classical identities involving classical \(F_4\)-Appell series and \({}_3F_2\)-classical hypergeometric series. In particular, he expresses the special values of \(F_4^{*}\), a finite field analogue of the classical Appell series \(F_4\), in terms of the Fourier coefficients of weight-three modular forms.
