A common formula for certain generalized Hankel transforms

Combinatorics 2012-03-27 v2

Abstract

We study the generalized Hankel transform of the family of sequences satisfying the recurrence relation an+1=(α+βn+γ)ana_{n+1} = \bigl(\alpha + \frac{\beta}{n+\gamma}\bigr) a_n. We apply the obtained formula to several particular important sequences. Incidentally, we find a connection between some well known formulas that had previously arisen in literature in dissimilar settings. Additionally, given a non-zero sequence satisfying the above recurrence, we evaluate the Hankel transform of the sequence of its reciprocals.
