Hermite Polynomial

A set of Orthogonal Polynomials. The Hermite polynomials are illustrated above for and , 2,..., 5.


The Generating Function for Hermite polynomials is

(1)

Using a Taylor Series shows that,
 
 (2)

Since ,
 
 (3)

Now define operators
(4)
(5)

It follows that
(6)
 
 (7)

so
(8)

and
(9)

which means the following definitions are equivalent:
(10)
(11)
(12)

The Hermite Polynomials are related to the derivative of the Error Function by
(13)

They have a contour integral representation
(14)

They are orthogonal in the range with respect to the Weighting Function
(15)

Define the associated functions
(16)

These obey the orthogonality conditions

(17)
(18)
(19)
 
   (20)
 
   (21)

if is Even and , , and . Otherwise, thelast integral is 0 (Szegö 1975, p. 390).


They also satisfy the Recurrence Relations

(22)


(23)

The Discriminant is

(Szegö 1975, p. 143).


An interesting identity is

(25)

The first few Polynomials are





A class of generalized Hermite Polynomials satisfying

was studied by Subramanyan (1990). A class of related Polynomials defined by
(27)

and with Generating Function

A modified version of the Hermite Polynomial is sometimes defined by
