Bateman polynomials
In mathematics, the Bateman polynomials are a family Fn of orthogonal polynomials introduced by Bateman (1933). The Bateman–Pasternack polynomials are a generalization introduced by Pasternack (1939).
Bateman polynomials are given by
where Pn is a Legendre polynomial.
Pasternack (1939) generalized the Bateman polynomials to polynomials Fm
n with
Carlitz (1957) showed that the polynomials Qn studied by Touchard (1956) , see Touchard polynomials, are the same as Bateman polynomials up to a change of variable: more precisely
Bateman and Pasternack's polynomials are special cases of the symmetric continuous Hahn polynomials.
