Equations of hypergeometric type in the degenerate case

We consider the three most important equations of hypergeometric type, ${}_2F_1$, ${}_1F_1$ and ${}_1F_0$, in the so-called degenerate case. In this case one of the parameters, usually denoted $c$, is an integer and the standard basis of solutions consists of a hypergeometric-type function and a function with a logarithmic singularity. This article is devoted to a thorough analysis of the latter solution to all three equations.
