The relations in the tautological ring of the moduli space M_g of nonsingular curves conjectured by Faber-Zagier in 2000 and extended to the moduli space of stable pointed curves by Pixton in 2012 are based upon two hypergeometric series A and B. The question of the geometric origins of these series has been solved in at least two ways (via the Frobenius structures associated to 3-spin curves and to CP1). The series A and B also appear in the study of descendent integration on the moduli spaces of open and closed curves. We survey here the various occurrences of A and B starting from their appearance in the asymptotic expansion of the Airy function (calculated by Stokes in the 19th century). Several open questions are proposed.

The six gluon disk amplitude is calculated in superstring theory. This amplitude probes the gauge interactions with six external legs on Dp-branes, in particular including e.g. F^6-terms. The full string S-matrix can be expressed by six generalized m ultiple hypergeometric functions (triple hypergeometric functions), which in the effective action play an important role in arranging the higher order alpha gauge interaction terms with six external legs (like F^6, D^4 F^4, D^2 F^5, D^6 F^4, D^2 F^6, ...). A systematic and efficient method is found to calculate tree-level string amplitudes by equating seemingly different expressions for one and the same string S-matrix: Comparable to Riemann identities appearing in string-loop calculations, we find an intriguing way of using world-sheet supersymmetry to generate a system of non-trivial equations for string tree-level amplitudes. These equations result in algebraic identities between different multiple hypergeometric functions. Their (six-dimensional) solution gives the ingredients of the string S-matrix. We derive material relevant for any open string six-point scattering process: relations between triple hypergeometric functions, their integral representations and their alpha-(momentum)-expansions given by (generalized) Euler-Zagier sums or (related) Witten zeta-functions.
We consider the KZ differential equations over $mathbb C$ in the case, when the hypergeometric solutions are one-dimensional integrals. We also consider the same differential equations over a finite field $mathbb F_p$. We study the space of polynomia l solutions of these differential equations over $mathbb F_p$, constructed in a previous work by V. Schechtman and the second author. Using Hasse-Witt matrices we identify the space of these polynomial solutions over $mathbb F_p$ with the space dual to a certain subspace of regular differentials on an associated curve. We also relate these polynomial solutions over $mathbb F_p$ and the hypergeometric solutions over $mathbb C$.

General theory of elliptic hypergeometric series and integrals is outlined. Main attention is paid to the examples obeying properties of the classical special functions. In particular, an elliptic analogue of the Gauss hypergeometric function and som e of its properties are described. Present review is based on authors habilitation thesis [Spi7] containing a more detailed account of the subject.

We consider the KZ differential equations over $mathbb C$ in the case, when the hypergeometric solutions are one-dimensional integrals. We also consider the same differential equations over a finite field $mathbb F_p$. We study the polynomial solutio ns of these differential equations over $mathbb F_p$, constructed in a previous work joint with V.,Schechtman and called the $mathbb F_p$-hypergeometric solutions. The dimension of the space of $mathbb F_p$-hypergeometric solutions depends on the prime number $p$. We say that the KZ equations have ample reduction for a prime $p$, if the dimension of the space of $mathbb F_p$-hypergeometric solutions is maximal possible, that is, equal to the dimension of the space of solutions of the corresponding KZ equations over $mathbb C$. Under the assumption of ample reduction, we prove a determinant formula for the matrix of coordinates of basis $mathbb F_p$-hypergeometric solutions. The formula is analogous to the corresponding formula for the determinant of the matrix of coordinates of basis complex hypergeometric solutions, in which binomials $(z_i-z_j)^{M_i+M_j}$ are replaced with $(z_i-z_j)^{M_i+M_j-p}$ and the Euler gamma function $Gamma(x)$ is replaced with a suitable $mathbb F_p$-analog $Gamma_{mathbb F_p}(x)$ defined on $mathbb F_p$.
The Cholesky factorization of the moment matrix is applied to discrete orthogonal polynomials on the homogeneous lattice. In particular, semiclassical discrete orthogonal polynomials, which are built in terms of a discrete Pearson equation, are studi ed. The Laguerre-Freud structure semi-infinite matrix that models the shifts by $pm 1$ in the independent variable of the set of orthogonal polynomials is introduced. In the semiclassical case it is proven that this Laguerre-Freud matrix is banded. From the well known fact that moments of the semiclassical weights are logarithmic derivatives of generalized hypergeometric functions, it is shown how the contiguous relations for these hypergeometric functions translate as symmetries for the corresponding moment matrix. It is found that the 3D Nijhoff-Capel discrete Toda lattice describes the corresponding contiguous shifts for the squared norms of the orthogonal polynomials. The continuous Toda for these semiclassical discrete orthogonal polynomials is discussed and the compatibility equations are derived. It also shown that the Kadomtesev-Petvishvilii equation is connected to an adequate deformed semiclassical discrete weight, but in this case the deformation do not satisfy a Pearson equation.
