On linearization and connection coefficients for generalized Hermite polynomials

We consider the problem of finding explicit formulas, recurrence relations and sign properties for both connection and linearization coefficients for generalized Hermite polynomials. Most of the computations are carried out by the computer algebra system Maple using appropriate algorithms.     

Operational rules and a generalized Hermite polynomials

In this paper, we use operational rules associated with three operators corresponding to a generalized Hermite polynomials introduced by Szegö to derive, as far as we know, new proofs of some known properties as well as new expansions formulae related to these polynomials.     

Zero sets of bivariate Hermite polynomials

We establish various properties for the zero sets of three families of bivariate Hermite polynomials. Special emphasis is given to those bivariate orthogonal polynomials introduced by Hermite by means of a Rodrigues type formula related to a general positive definite quadratic form. For this family we prove that the zero set of the polynomial of total degree n+m$n+m$ consists of exactly n+m$n+m$ disjoint branches and possesses n+m$n+m$ asymptotes. A natural extension of the notion of interlacing is introduced and it is proved that the zero sets of the family under discussion obey this property. The results show that the properties of the zero sets, considered as affine algebraic curves in R²${\mathbb{R}}^2$, are completely different for the three families analyzed.

Generating functions for generalized Hermite polynomials associated with parabolic cylinder functions

ABSTRACT

In this article, we first give some basic properties of generalized Hermite polynomials associated with parabolic cylinder functions. We next use Weisner? group theoretic method and operational rules method to establish new generating functions for these generalized Hermite polynomials. The operational methods we use allow us to obtain unilateral, bilinear and bilateral generating functions by using the same procedure. Applications of generating functions obtained by Weisner? group theoretic method are discussed.     

Hermite and Hermite-Fejér interpolation for Stieltjes polynomials

Let and be the ultraspherical polynomials with respect to . Then we denote by the Stieltjes polynomials with respect to satisfying

In this paper, we show uniform convergence of the Hermite-Fejér interpolation polynomials and based on the zeros of the Stieltjes polynomials and the product for and , respectively. To prove these results, we prove that the Lebesgue constants of Hermite-Fejér interpolation operators for the Stieltjes polynomials and the product are optimal, that is, the Lebesgue constants and have optimal order . In the case of the Hermite-Fejér interpolation polynomials for , we prove weighted uniform convergence. Moreover, we give some convergence theorems of Hermite-Fejér and Hermite interpolation polynomials for in weighted norms.

     

Asymptotic zero distribution of hypergeometric polynomials

We show that the zeros of the hypergeometric polynomials , , cluster on the loop of the lemniscate as . We also state the equations of the curves on which the zeros of , lie asymptotically as . Auxiliary results for the asymptotic zero distribution of other functions related to hypergeometric polynomials are proved, including Jacobi polynomials with varying parameters and associated Legendre functions. Graphical evidence is provided using Mathematica. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Coefficients of Wronskian Hermite polynomials

We study Wronskians of Hermite polynomials labeled by partitions and use the combinatorial concepts of cores and quotients to derive explicit expressions for their coefficients. These coefficients can be expressed in terms of the characters of irreducible representations of the symmetric group, and also in terms of hook lengths. Further, we derive the asymptotic behavior of the Wronskian Hermite polynomials when the length of the core tends to infinity, while fixing the quotient. Via this combinatorial setting, we obtain in a natural way the generalization of the correspondence between Hermite and Laguerre polynomials to Wronskian Hermite polynomials and Wronskians involving Laguerre polynomials. Lastly, we generalize most of our results to polynomials that have zeros on the p-star.     

A note on Hermite polynomials of several variables

The present paper deals with an extension of certain results obtained by Burchnall for Hermite polynomials to similar results for Hermite polynomials of several variables.     

An extremal property of Hermite polynomials

Let H_n be the nth Hermite polynomial, i.e., the nth orthogonal on polynomial with respect to the weight w(x)=exp(−x²). We prove the following: If f is an arbitrary polynomial of degree at most n, such that |f||H_n| at the zeros of H_n+1, then for k=1,…,n we have f^(k)H_n^(k), where · is the norm. This result can be viewed as an inequality of the Duffin and Schaeffer type. As corollaries, we obtain a Markov-type inequality in the norm, and estimates for the expansion coefficients in the basis of Hermite polynomials.     

Zeros of Gegenbauer and Hermite polynomials and connection coefficients

In this paper, sharp upper limit for the zeros of the ultraspherical polynomials are obtained via a result of Obrechkoff and certain explicit connection coefficients for these polynomials. As a consequence, sharp bounds for the zeros of the Hermite polynomials are obtained.

     

Generalized Hermitean Clifford–Hermite polynomials and the associated wavelet transform

Clifford analysis is a higher‐dimensional function theory offering a refinement of classical harmonic analysis, which has proven to be an appropriate framework for developing higher‐dimensional continuous wavelet transforms, the construction of the wavelets being based on generalizations to a higher dimension of classical orthogonal polynomials on the real line. More recently, Hermitean Clifford analysis has emerged as a new branch of Clifford analysis, offering yet a refinement of the standard Euclidean case; it focusses on so‐called Hermitean monogenic functions, i.e. simultaneous null solutions of two Hermitean Dirac operators. In this Hermitean setting, Clifford–Hermite polynomials and their associated families of wavelet kernels have been constructed starting from a Rodrigues formula involving both Hermitean Dirac operators mentioned. Unfortunately, the property of the so‐called vanishing moments of the corresponding mother wavelets, ensuring that polynomial behaviour in the analyzed signal is filtered out, is only partially satisfied and has to be interpreted with care, the underlying mathematical reason being the fact that the Hermitean Clifford–Hermite polynomials show a too restrictive structure. In this paper, we will remediate this drawback by considering generalized Hermitean Clifford–Hermite polynomials, involving in their definition homogeneous Hermitean monogenic polynomials. The ultimate goal being the construction of new continuous wavelet transforms by means of these polynomials, we first deeply investigate their properties, amongst which are their connection with the traditional Laguerre polynomials, their structure and recurrence relations.

Multi-variable Hermite matrix polynomials: Properties and applications

In this paper, the multi-variable Hermite matrix polynomials are introduced by algebraic decomposition of exponential operators. Their properties are established using operational methods. The matrix forms of the Chebyshev and truncated polynomials of two variable are also introduced, which are further used to derive certain operational representations and expansion formulae.

Lie-theoretic generating relations of Hermite 2D polynomials

In this paper, we derive some generating relations involving Hermite 2D polynomials (H2DP) H_m,n(U;x,y), of two variables with an arbitrary 2D matrix U as parameter using Lie-theoretic approach. Certain (known or new) generating relations for the polynomials related to H2DP are also obtained as special cases.
