SUMMARY:Perlen-Kolloquium: Frits Beukers (Utrecht University)
DESCRIPTION:Ever since their inception by Euler and Gauss\, hypergeometric 
 functions have appeared in many different branches of mathematics and math
 ematical physics. The concept hypergeometric function has also been genera
 lized in many different directions. In the end of the 1980's Gel’fand\, 
 Kapranov and Zelevinski formulated an elegant framework of so-called A-hyp
 ergeometric functions\, which encompasses many of the several variable hyp
 ergeometric functions. In this lecture we explain the concept of A-hyperge
 ometric function and describe some recent developments on the determinatio
 n of their monodromy group. The latter gives a conceptual insight into the
  many relations that exist between hypergeometric functions.
