Checking whether identity is new or already known?

Posted 7 years ago

Is there a way provided by Mathematica feature or by one of the Wolfram apps, (such as WolframAlpha, etc.) of checking whether identity is new or already known?

Let me give an example. Recently I derived the following:

Sqrt[Pi] = (2^(5+3 j) (Gamma[5+2 j] Gamma[8+3 j] HypergeometricPFQ[{1,5/2+j,3+j},{3+(3 j)/2,7/2+(3 j)/2},-1]+2 Gamma[7+2 j] Gamma[6+3 j] HypergeometricPFQ[{1,7/2+j,4+j},{4+(3 j)/2,9/2+(3 j)/2},-1]))/(Gamma[5+2 j] Gamma[6+3 j] Gamma[8+3 j] (HypergeometricPFQRegularized[{1,5/2+j,3+j},{3+(3 j)/2,7/2+(3 j)/2},-1]+(15+11 j+2 j^2) HypergeometricPFQRegularized[{1,7/2+j,4+j},{4+(3 j)/2,(3 (3+j))/2},-1])) (*)

Since above (*) holds for an arbitrary integer "j" (as confirmed in both Mathematica and Maple), I call it identity... I would like to find out whether (*) is well known and/or represents some kind of corollary or does it represnt the new previously unknown independent result?

Is there some functionality (and/or feature) available in Mathematica or in app (such as WolframAlpha} to give me the answer on my above stated question?

NB Above identity (*) is the subcase of more general, based on four parameters {j,k,l,m}, derived by me identity, which is true for arbitrary j,k,l,m.

Sqrt[Pi] = (1/(2^j)*((k Gamma[5 + 2 j] Gamma[1 + l] HypergeometricPFQ[{1, 5/2 + j, 3 + j}, {3 + j + l/2,7/2 + j + l/2}, -1])/Gamma[6 + 2 j + l] + ((k + m) Gamma[7 + 2 j] Gamma[1 + l] HypergeometricPFQ[{1, 7/2 + j, 4 + j}, {4 + j + l/2,9/2 + j + l/2}, -1])/Gamma[8 + 2 j + l]))/(2^(-5 - 3 j -l) Gamma[5 + 2 j] Gamma[1 + l] (k HypergeometricPFQRegularized[{1, 5/2 + j,3 + j}, {3 + j + l/2, 7/2 + j + l/2}, -1] +1/2 (3 + j) (5 + 2 j) (k + m) HypergeometricPFQRegularized[{1,7/2 + j, 4 + j}, {4 + j + l/2, 9/2 + j + l/2}, -1])) (**)

Please make sure you know the rules and how to format your code properly, which you can find here: https://wolfr.am/READ-1ST If you do not format code, it may become corrupted and useless to other members. Please EDIT your posts and make sure code blocks start on a new paragraph and look framed and colored like this.

int = Integrate[1/(x^3 - 1), x];

This question in pretty vague. What is your definition of "identity"?
