Motivated by an expression by Persson and Strang on an integral involving Legendre polynomials, stating that the square of $P_{2n+1}(x)/x$ integrated over $[-1,1]$ is always $2$, we present analog results for Hermite, Chebyshev, Laguerre…

It is noted that the Legendre transformations in the standard formulation of quantum field theory have the form of functional Clairaut-type equations. It is shown that in presence of composite fields the Clairaut-type form holds after loop…

We find two series expansions for Legendre's second incomplete elliptic integral $E(\lambda, k)$ in terms of recursively computed elementary functions. Both expansions converge at every point of the unit square in the $(\lambda, k)$ plane.…

A class of second-order differential equations commonly arising in physics applications are considered, and their explicit hypergeometric solutions are provided. Further, the relationship with the Generalized and Universal Associated…

Li et al. give an integral formula for the Catalan-Qi number of the second kind. They show that this integral can be written as a summation with double factorials. In this paper the integral is reduced to a product of the Catalan number and…

Using a binary representation for basis elements of an algebra combined with a framework of multiplier and index functions, a connection has been established between the structure of a large class of algebras and the XOR componentwise…

For any positive integer $n$ and variables $a$ and $x$ we define the generalized Legendre polynomial $P_n(a,x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\b ak\b{-1-a}k(\frac{1-x}2)^k$. Let $p$ be an odd prime. In the paper we prove many congruences modulo $p^2$ related…

Using a realization of the q-exponential function as an infinite multiplicative sereis of the ordinary exponential functions we obtain new nonlinear connection formulae of the q-orthogonal polynomials such as q-Hermite, q-Laguerre and…

The authors prepared this booklet in order to make several useful topics from the theory of special functions, in particular the spherical harmonics and Legendre polynomials for any dimension, available to undergraduates studying physics or…

We prove and generalize some recent conjectures of Z.-W. Sun on infinite series whose summands involve products of harmonic numbers and several binomial coefficients. We evaluate various classes of infinite sums in closed form by…

Take a multiplicative monoid of sequences in which the multiplication is given by Hadamard product. The set of linear combinations of interleaving monoid elements then yields a ring. For hypergeometric sequences, the resulting ring is a…

We consider all 16 unary operations that, given a homogeneous binary relation R, define a new one by a boolean combination of xRy and yRx. Operations can be composed, and connected by pointwise-defined logical junctors. We consider the…

Using known entropic and information inequalities new inequalities for some classical polynomials are obtained. Examples of Jacobi and Legendre polynomials are considered.

Expressions for the derivatives of the Legendre polynomials of the first kind with respect to the order of these polynomials are given. An explicit form for the fourth derivative is presented.

We use the Legendre polynomials and the Hermite polynomials as two examples to illustrate a simple and systematic technique on deriving asymptotic formulas for orthogonal polynomials via recurrence relations. Another application of this…

We introduce an extended Kepler-Coulomb quantum model in spherical coordinates. The Schr\"{o}dinger equation of this Hamiltonian is solved in these coordinates and it is shown that the wave functions of the system can be expressed in terms…

A fractional power interpretation of the Laguerre derivative $(DxD)^\alpha,\ D\equiv {d\over dx} $ is discussed. The corresponding fractional integrals are introduced. Mapping and semigroup properties, integral representations and Mellin…

To a function with values in the power set of a pre--ordered, separated locally convex space a family of scalarizations is given which completely characterizes the original function. A concept of a Legendre--Fenchel conjugate for set-valued…

We present a new method for producing series for $1/\pi$ and other constants using Legendre's relation, starting from a generation function that can be factorised into two elliptic $K$'s; this way we avoid much of modular theory or creative…

We explore integrals of products of Legendre polynomials with a logarithmic weight function. More precisely, for Legendre polynomials $P_m$ and $P_n$ of orders $m$ and $n$, respectively, we provide simple derivations of the integrals $$\int…
