Abstract
A transformation formula for a double basic hypergeometric series of type Φ 0:2;2 1:2;2 is derived. This transformation yields a double series analogue of Sears’ transformation for a terminating 3 Φ 2 series. In the limit q→1, the formula reduces to a transformation for a terminating double Clausenian hypergeometric series of unit argument (one of the proper Kampé de Fériet series, F 0:2;2 1:2;2(1,1)). This formula is a double series analogue of Whipple's terminating 3 F 2 transformation. This transformation gives rise to a transformation group (the invariance group) acting on the parameters of the double series. The invariance group is examined and shown to be a subgroup of a double copy of the symmetries of the square.
