Finite hypergeometric functions are functions of a finite field ?? q $${\mathbb F}_q$$ to ℂ $${\mathbb C}$$ . They arise as Fourier expansions of certain twisted exponential sums and were introduced independently by John Greene and Nick Katz in the 1980s. They have many properties in common with their analytic counterparts, the hypergeometric functions. One restriction in the definition of finite hypergeometric functions is that the hypergeometric parameters must be rational numbers whose denominators divide q − 1. In this note we use the symmetry in the hypergeometric parameters and an extension of the exponential sums to circumvent this problem as much as possible.
