Abstract
This paper presents explicit algebraic transformations of some Gauss hypergeometric functions. Specifically, the transformations considered apply to hypergeometric solutions of hypergeometric differential equations with the local exponent differences 1/k,1/l,1/m such that
k,l,m are positive integers and 1/k+1/l+1/m<1. All algebraic transformations of these Gauss hypergeometric functions are considered. We show that apart from classical transformations of
degree 2, 3, 4, 6 there are several other transformations of degree 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 18, 24. Besides, we present an algorithm to compute relevant Belyi functions explicitly.
