Proof: Notice if $t=0$ then the series converges trivially, so suppose $t \neq 0$. We will apply the ratio test. Let $\alpha_k=\dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}t^k}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}k!}$. Then $$\begin{array}{ll} L &= \displaystyle\lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \dfrac{\alpha_{k+1}}{\alpha_k} \right| \\ &= \displaystyle\lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \dfrac{\dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}t^k}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}k!}}{\dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k+1}}t^{k+1}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k+1}}(k+1)!}} \right| \\ &= \displaystyle\lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}} \vec{b}^{\overline{k+1}}(k+1)!t^k }{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}} \vec{a}^{\overline{k+1}}k!t^{k+1}} \right| \\ &= \displaystyle\lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \dfrac{k(\vec{b}+k)}{(\vec{a}+k)t} \right| \\ &= \displaystyle\lim_{k \rightarrow \infty} \left| \dfrac{O(k^{q+1})}{O(k^{p})}\right| \\ &= 0 < 1, \end{array}$$ therefore the series converges for all $t \in \mathbb{C}$. █

Proof: The computation $$\begin{array}{ll} \dfrac{d^n}{dt^n} {}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t) &= \dfrac{d^n}{dt^n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{ \vec{a}^{\overline{k}} }{ \vec{b}^{\overline{k}} } \dfrac{t^{\underline{k}}}{k!} \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=n}^{\infty} \dfrac{ \vec{a}^{\overline{k}} }{ \vec{b}^{\overline{k}} } \dfrac{t^{\underline{k-n}}}{(k-n)!} \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{ \vec{a}^{\overline{k+n}} }{ \vec{b}^{\overline{k+n}} } \dfrac{t^{\underline{k}}}{k!} \\ &=\dfrac{ \vec{a}^{\overline{n}} }{ \vec{b}^{\overline{n}} } \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{ (\vec{a}+n)^{\overline{k}} }{ (\vec{b}+n)^{\overline{k}} } \dfrac{t^{\underline{k}}}{k!} \\ &=\dfrac{ \vec{a}^{\overline{n}} }{ \vec{b}^{\overline{n}} } {}_pF_q(\vec{a}+n;\vec{b}+n;t) \end{array}$$ proves the claim. █

Proof: First we suppose $n=0$ yielding the formula $$\begin{array}{ll} t^{\gamma}{}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t) &= t^{\gamma-n} \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}}{\vec{b}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &= t^{\gamma-n} \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(\gamma+1)\vec{a}}{(\gamma+1)\vec{b}}\dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &= t^{\gamma-n} {}_{p+1}F_{q+1}(\gamma+1,\vec{a};\gamma+1-0,\vec{b};t), \end{array}$$ obeying the formula. Now suppose that the formula is satisfied for $n=1,2,\ldots,N-1$. We will show now that the formula holds for $n=N$: $$\begin{array}{ll} \dfrac{d^{N}}{dt^{N}} \left[ t^{\gamma} {}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t)\right] &= \dfrac{d}{dt} \left[ \dfrac{d^{N-1}}{dt^{N-1}} \left[ t^{\gamma} {}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t) \right] \right] \\ &=\dfrac{d}{dt} \left[ (\gamma-(N-1)+1)^{\overline{N-1}} t^{\gamma-(N-1)} {}_{p+1}F_{q+1}(\gamma+1,\vec{a};\gamma+1-(N-1),\vec{b};t) \right] \\ &=(\gamma-N+2)^{\overline{N-1}}(\gamma-N+1)t^{\gamma-N}{}_{p+1}F_{q+1}(\gamma+1,\vec{a};\gamma-N+2,\vec{b};t) \\ &\hspace{4pt}+(\gamma-N+2)^{\overline{N-1}}t^{\gamma-N+1}\dfrac{(\gamma+1) \vec{a}}{(\gamma-N+2)\vec{b}} {}_{p+1}F_{q+1} (\gamma+2,\vec{a}+1;\gamma-N+3,\vec{b};t) \\ &= (\gamma-N+2)^{\overline{N-1}} \left\{ (\gamma-N+1)t^{\gamma-N}{}_{p+1}F_{q+1}(\gamma+1;\vec{a};\gamma-N+2,\vec{b};t) \right. \\ &\hspace{4pt}+ \left. t^{\gamma-N+1} \dfrac{(\gamma+1)\vec{a}}{(\gamma-N+2)\vec{b}} {}_{p+1}F_{q+1}(\gamma+2,\vec{a}+1;\gamma-N+3,\vec{b};t) \right\} NEEDSWORK \end{array}$$ █
