We present a number of identities involving standard and associated Laguerre polynomials. They include double-, and triple-lacunary, ordinary and exponential generating functions of certain classes of Laguerre polynomials.
Symbolic methods of umbral nature play an important and increasing role in the theory of special functions and in related fields like combinatorics. We discuss an application of these methods to the theory of lacunary generating functions for the Lag
uerre polynomials for which we give a number of new closed form expressions. We present furthermore the different possibilities offered by the method we have developed, with particular emphasis on their link to a new family of special functions and with previous formulations, associated with the theory of quasi monomials.
The generating function of the Bannai-Ito polynomials is derived using the fact that these polynomials are known to be essentially the Racah or $6j$ coefficients of the $mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ Lie superalgebra. The derivation is carried in a realization
of the recoupling problem in terms of three Dunkl oscillators.
The new complete orthonormal sets of -Laguerre type polynomials (-LTP,) are suggested. Using Schrodinger equation for complete orthonormal sets of -exponential type orbitals (-ETO) introduced by the author, it is shown that the origin of these polyno
mials is the centrally symmetric potential which contains the core attraction potential and the quantum frictional potential of the field produced by the particle itself. The quantum frictional forces are the analog of radiation damping or frictional forces suggested by Lorentz in classical electrodynamics. The new -LTP are complete without the inclusion of the continuum states of hydrogen like atoms. It is shown that the nonstandard and standard conventions of -LTP and their weight functions are the same. As an application, the sets of infinite expansion formulas in terms of -LTP and L-Generalized Laguerre polynomials (L-GLP) for atomic nuclear attraction integrals of Slater type orbitals (STO) and Coulomb-Yukawa like correlated interaction potentials (CIP) with integer and noninteger indices are obtained. The arrange and rearranged power series of a general power function are also investigated. The convergence of these series is tested by calculating concrete cases for arbitrary values of parameters of orbitals and power function.
Generating functions for Clebsch-Gordan coefficients of osp(1|2) are derived. These coefficients are expressed as q goes to - 1 limits of the dual q-Hahn polynomials. The generating functions are obtained using two different approaches respectively b
ased on the coherent-state representation and the position representation of osp(1j2).
We present a simple formula for the generating function for the polynomials in the $d$--dimensional semiclassical wave packets. We then use this formula to prove the associated Rodrigues formula.
