The last of the hypergeometric continued fractions

Abstract

A contiguous relation for complementry pairs of very well poised balanced 10φ9 basic hypergeometric functions is used to derive an explict expression for the associated continued fraction. This generalizes the continued fraction results associated with both Ramanujan's Entry 40 and Askey-Wilson polynomials which can be recovered as limits. Associated with our continued fraction results there are systems of biorthogonal rational functions that have yet to be derived.
