📝 Abstract
This paper develops inference for a Gaussian-nested hypergeometric family of distribution functions. The family \[ G_c(z) = \frac12 + z\,\frac{Γ(c-1/2)}{2\sqrt2\,Γ(c)}\,{}_1F_1\!\left(\frac12;c;-\frac{z^2}{2}\right),\quad c\ge\frac32, \] contains the standard normal distribution at the boundary $c=3/2$. Away from the boundary, the density has algebraic tail behaviour $g_c(z)\sim(c-3/2)|z|^{-3}$, so the parameter $c$ indexes a directed heavy-tailed deformation of the Gaussian law. The distribution also admits an equivalent beta-precision normal scale-mixture representation, in which the Gaussian boundary corresponds to degenerate unit precision. I establish the admissibility of the hypergeometric family, derive minimum-distance estimators, and obtain both regular interior asymptotics and nonstandard boundary asymptotics under the normal null. The standardised fit-improvement statistic converges to the mixture distribution $\tfrac12δ_0+\tfrac12χ_1^2$. I extend the theory to plug-in location-scale procedures, including a robust median/IQR version. Simulations document accurate null size and directed power against heavy-tailed alternatives. An application to daily S&P 500 returns, both unconditionally and after GARCH(1,1) filtering, illustrates the empirical implications for tail fitting and risk quantiles, and documents that GARCH filtering substantially reduces but does not eliminate the symmetric heavy-tailed departure detected by the test.
