Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to present expansions which generalize some well-known formulae for the Hermite function. Among these are the Weisner [20] extension of Mehler’s [17] bilinear relation, some recent results of Carlitz [4], and the Bateman [2] addition theorem. A bilateral generating function involving the product of the Hermite and ultraspherical polynomials is given. Finally, some general polynomial expansion theorems are derived.
