Differential equation
Define the derivative operator $\vartheta=t \dfrac{d}{dt}$.Then $$\vartheta t^k = t \dfrac{d}{dt} t^k = t(kt^{k-1})=kt^k.$$
Proposition: The operator $\vartheta$ is a linear operator.
Proof: █
Theorem: Define $y(t)={}_pF_q(\vec{a};\vec{b};t)$. Then $y$ satisfies $$(\dagger) \hspace{35pt} \left[ \vartheta \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q (\vartheta + b_j-1) - t \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta+a_i) \right]y=0.$$
Proof: First compute $$\begin{array}{ll} \left[ t \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta+a_i) \right] y(t) &= \left[ t \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta + a_i) \right] \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &= t\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \left[ \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta + a_i) \right] \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &= t\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}k!} \left[ \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta + a_i) \right] t^k \\ &= t\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \left[ \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (k+a_i) \right] \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &=t\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(\vec{a}+k)\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!}. \\ \end{array}$$ Now the computation $$\begin{array}{ll} \left[ \vartheta \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q (\vartheta + b_j -1) \right]y(t) &= \left[ \vartheta \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q (\vartheta+b_j-1) \right]\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}k!} \left[ \vartheta \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q (\vartheta + b_j -1) \right] t^k \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{k!} \left[ \dfrac{\displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q (k + b_j -1)}{b^{\overline{k}}} \right] \vartheta t_k \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{k!} \left[ k\displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q \dfrac{k+b_j-1}{b_j(b_j+1)\ldots(b_j+k-1)} \right] t^k \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{k!} \left[ \displaystyle\prod_{j=1}^q \dfrac{1}{b_j(b_j+1)\ldots(b_j+k-2)} \right] t^k \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k-1}}(k-1)!} t^k \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{\vec{a}^{\overline{k+1}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}k!}t^{k+1} \\ &= \displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(\vec{a}+k)\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^{k+1}}{k!} \\ &= t\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(\vec{a}+k)\vec{a}^{\overline{k}}}{\vec{b}^{\overline{k}}} \dfrac{t^k}{k!} \\ &= \left[ t \displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^p (\vartheta + a_i) \right] y(t) \end{array}$$ proves the claim. █
