Abstract:

It is shown that there cannot exist a simple generating function for homogeneous harmonic polynomials in five or more variables similar to those known to exist for three and four variables. Thus there is no simple immediate generalization of the three dimensional Bergman-Whittaker operator (and Gilbert’s four dimensional operator) to five or more dimensions.
