1 Introduction
Special functions of matrices is a prominent topic in the literature of matrix analysis. A large piece of mathematics and its applications (both theoretical and practical) has been cut across the subject of orthogonal polynomials. The property of orthogonality, Rodrigues formula, a relation between different orthogonal matrix polynomials, matrix differential equation, a three-term matrix recurrence relation (see [5, 9, 10, 29]) holds the theoretical examples, while, statistics, group representation theory, scattering theory, differential equations, Fourier series expansions, interpolation and quadrature and splines, (refer to [4, 7, 11, 17, 18, 21]) embrace the practical ones. With passing years, this study has taken more systematic configuration due to the fact that many basic results of scalar orthogonality have been extended to the matrix frame. In [33], Srivastava and Brenner gave bounds for Jacobi and related polynomials derived by matrix methods. Latest innovations in matrix versions for the classical families of orthogonal polynomials such as Jacobi, extended Jacobi, Bessel, Hermite, Laguerre, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev polynomials and some other special functions are introduced by many authors for matrices in \(C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\), (see for example [2, 3, 6,7,8, 11,12,13,14,15,16, 20, 27,28,31]).
An organized study for the generalization of Humbert, Gegenbauer and several other polynomial systems is casted by Gould [12] using the generating function
where m is a positive integer, \(|t|< 1\) and rest parameters being generally unrestricted. The exact special cases of (1), including Gegenbauer, Legendre, Tchebycheff, Pincherle, Kinney and Humbert polynomials, are tabulated by Gould in [12]. \(P_n(m,x,y,p,c)\) is defined explicitly by
In [28], the authors gave the matrix version for Gegenbauer polynomials through the generating function
The explicit formula being
where A is positive stable matrix in the complex plane \(C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\). In 1989, Sinha [32] gave the following generating relation
where
\(S_n^\nu (x)\) is an interesting generalization of Shrestha polynomial \(S_n(x)\) (see [31]).
Recently, Pathan et al. [23] studied a class of matrix polynomials associated with Humbert polynomials as an extension to the matrix framework of the classical families for the above mentioned polynomials by the relation
He obtained the explicit representation for the polynomials as
In the very next year, Pathan and Khan [24] generalized Sinha’s generating relation (cf. 5)) to unify the generalized Humbert polynomials in two variables as
where \(m\in \mathbb {N}\), \(h> 0\) and other parameters are unrestricted in general. Suitable selection of the parameters in the above expression generalize a number of polynomials studied by Agarwal and Parihar [1], Pathan and Khan [25], Gould [12], Milovanovic-Djordjevic [22] and Sinha [32] (also check [24]).
Motivated by the above literature, in the present article we give a 3-variable 4-parameter matrix generalization for Humbert matrix polynomials \(P_{n,m}^A(x,y,z;a,b,c,d)\) [3V4PgHMaP] which unifies a number of matrix polynomials in the complex plane \(C^{\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb {N}}\). The paper is organized as follows. In Sect. 2, some basel properties of the matrix functional calculus are given that will serve us throughout the presentation. In Sect. 3, we obtain two explicit formulae for the generalized Humbert matrix polynomials. Some special cases of proved fame are given in Sect. 4 and a generalized hypergeometric matrix series for 3V4PgHMaP is established in Sect. 5. In last two sections, the 3-variable matrix polynomial \(P_{n,m}^A(x,y,z;a,b,c,d)\) is exploited for some more generating functions and additional expansions.
2 Preliminaries
Throughout this paper, \(D_0\) denotes the complex plane cut along the negative real axis and \(\sigma (A)\) ( particularly known as spectrum of A), denotes the set of all eigenvalues of A. Here, A is a positive stable matrix in the complex plane \( C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\) if \( \mathfrak {R}(\lambda )> 0\) for all \(\lambda \in \sigma (A)\).
Its two norm denoted by \({\parallel A \parallel }_2\) is defined by
where for a vector y in \(\mathbb C^N\) , \( {\parallel y\parallel }_2 = (y^T y)^{1/2} \) is the Euclidean norm of y.
If A is a matrix in \( C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\) with \(\sigma (A)\subset \varOmega \), then from [8, p. 558], it follows that
where f(z) and g(z) are holomorphic functions of the complex variable z, which are defined in an open set \(\varOmega \) of the complex plane.
If
where I is the identity matrix in \(\mathbb C^{N\times N}\), then it follows that
and \((A)_n=\varGamma {(A+nI)}\varGamma ^{-1}(A)\) due to (12).
Thus from (13), one can desirable get (see [30, p. 30 (1.4) and p. 36 (4.2)]):
and
Definition 1
(Batahan [3]) For non-negative integers p and q, the generalized hypergeometric matrix function is defined as:
where \(A_i\) and \(B_j\) are matrices in \(C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\) such that the matrices \(B_j\) (\(1 \le j \le s\)) satisfy the generic condition (12).
With \(r=2\) and \(s=1\) in (16), we get the hypergeometric matrix function \({}_2F_1(A,B;C;z)\) (see [27]) of the type:
Further with \(r=1\) and \(s=0\) in (16), one obtains the relation due to [19, p. 213]:
The matrix power series in (17) is verified to be convergent by Ratio test for all complex number z.
Lemma 1
[3, 26, 34] If A(k; n) and B(k; n) are matrices in \(C^{N\times N}\) for \(n\ge 0\) and \(k\ge 0\), then the following relations are satisfied:
and for \(m=2\), we write
The above lemma provides results about double matrix series. The proof are analogous to that of the scalar case discussed in [26, p. 56] and [34, p. 101].
To meet the results, we will also use the following Binomial relation (see [26]).
3 Some expansions for a class of generalized Humbert matrix polynomials
Let A be a positive stable matrix in the complex plain \(C^{N\times N}\), where, C is the set of all complex numbers, for every Nth order square matrices. In view of (7) and (9), we define 3-variable 4-parameter generalized Humbert matrix polynomials (3V4PgHMaP) with matrix generating relation:
where, \(m \in \mathbb {N}\) (set of natural numbers) and other parameters being unrestricted in general.
We shall regard the complicated notation \(P^A_{n,m}(x,y,z;a,b,c,d)\) by \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\) from now onwards in the paper.
In this section, we obtain two very interesting explicit formulae (power series) for 3V4PgHMaP [\(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\)].
Theorem 1
For all \(m \ge 2\), \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\) takes the following explicit forms:
where \((A)_n\) is the general Pochhammer function in the matrix functional calculus (cf. (13)) for complex square matrix A.
And
where \(\vartheta =n-(m-2)s\).
Proof
By using the relations (18) and (23), (24) can be expressed as
or
the expression in (30), transforms as
which on equating the coefficients of \(t^n\) yields the explicit series (25) for \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\).
One can desirable get from (25) that
and
Now, using a different approach on the generating relation (24), we get,
which on using (18) and (23) in rhs of the above equation, gives
Now as \(k\rightarrow k+s\) and applying Srivastava–Manocha identity [35, p. 100 (2)], we find
A simple replacement \(n=n-2k-ms\) and comparison of coefficients of \(t^n\) gives another explicit function (26) for \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\) as
where, \(\vartheta =n-(m-2)s\).
In light of the relation,
Equation (33) can be rewritten as
which coincides with our assertion (27). \(\square \)
4 Special cases of 3V4PgHMaP
Upon assigning particular values to the parameters and variables we interestingly get a range of special cases for the generating Eq. (24) and for the relations (25)–(27), as discussed below:
1. Setting \(b=0, z=1\) and replacing d by b in (24), we get the result of Pathan et al. [23] generated by
where \(P_{n,m}^A(x,y;a,b,c)\) refers to the matrix polynomials associated with Humbert polynomials for two variables.
Same changes (\(b=0, z=1\), \(d=b\)) in (25) and (26), gives the explicit functions
and
For proofs of (37) and (38) (see [23] p. 210).
2. Keeping \(b=0=y, a=m, c=1=-d\) in (24) and (25), we get
and
where \(h_{n,m}^A(x)\) is the matrix version of Humbert polynomials \(h_{n,m}^{\nu }(x)\) for one variable [25].
3. Further \(m=3\) in (39) and (40), gives us
where \(h_{n}^A(x)\) is the matrix generating relation of Pincherle polynomials \(h_n(x)\) (see [22, 25]), with finite series representation as
4. Since
Therefore, the adjustment \(m=a=2, y=0,\) and \(c=1=-d=-b\) in (24) and (27), gives us another known result [29]
where \(C_{n}^A(x)\) is the Gegenbauer matrix polynomial.
5. By setting \(A=1\), \(y=b=0\), \(a=\sqrt{2B}\), \(c=1\) and \(d=-1\) in (24), we get
where, \(U_{n}(x,B)\) is the Chebyshev matrix polynomials of second kind [2], defined by
6. Further as \(A\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\) in (45), we get a class of Legendre matrix polynomials [27].
where,
5 Generalized hypergeometric matrix representation for \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\)
Here, we establish the matrix representation for 3V4PgHMaP in terms of generalized hypergeometric series.
Theorem 2
The following hypergeometric representation for 3V4PgHMaP, \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\) holds well:
where \(W=\left( \frac{c}{m-1}\right) ^{m-1}\left( \frac{m}{(ax+bz)}\right) ^m[d(2zy-1)]\),
and \(\varDelta (n;bI)\) refer to the array of n parameters as \(\frac{bI}{n}, \frac{(b+1)I}{n},\ldots ,\frac{(b+m-1)I}{n}\).
Proof
For non-negative integers n, m, from (13) and (15) one can write
and
We begin with the explicit expression (25) for \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\):
Using (50) and (51) in (52), we get
Now, from (20), one easily gets the hypergeometric matrix expansion for generalized Humbert matrix polynomial \(\mathbb {P}(x,y,z)\) precisely as
where \(W=\left( \frac{c}{m-1}\right) ^{m-1}\left( \frac{m}{(ax+bz)}\right) ^m[d(2zy-1)]\),
and \(\varDelta (n;bI)\) refer to the array of n parameters as \(\frac{bI}{n}, \frac{(b+1)I}{n},\ldots ,\frac{(b+m-1)I}{n}\).
We mark that, \( A+nI \) and \(\frac{-A-(n-m+1)I}{m-1}\) are invertible matrices. \(\square \)
Remark 1
Substituting \(z=1\) and \(b=0\) in Theorem 2, we readily find a known result as
The relationship (54) is already proved by Pathan et al. (see [23]).
Remark 2
Choosing the parameters \(b=0=y\), \(a=m\) and \(c=-d=1\) in Theorem 2, we get the matrix representation (see [23]):
which reduces (49) in one variable. Further restricting \(m=3\) in (55), we get \(h_{n,m}^A(x)=h_{n}^A(x)\):
The relationship (56) is already proved by Khammasha and Shehata in [22].
Remark 3
The relationship \(P_{n,2}^A(x,0,z;2,-1,1,-1)= C_{n}^A(x)\), descends (49) to the hypergeometric function \({}_2F_{1}[-,-;-;x]\) of Sayyed et al. [29] for Gegenbaure matrix polynomials.
6 Some more generating functions
Relying on a similar procedure as used in the previous section, we come across some more generating relations derived below. In the due course, we observe that these generating relations form the extended matrix versions for Sinha, Sheshtha, Pincherle, Kinney, Gegenbaure and Horadam-Pethe polynomials (see [15, 16, 22, 27, 32]).
Theorem 3
Let \(A \in C^{\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb {N}}\) be a positive stable matrix, then for 3V4PgHMaP the following generating relation holds true.
where, \(\frac{A+nI}{m},\frac{A+(n-1)I}{m},\ldots ,\frac{A+(n-m+1)I}{m}\) are invertible matrices in \(C^{\mathbb {N}\times \mathbb {N}}\).
Proof
We proceed by considering the explicit series (25)
which on using (50) and the relation \((A)_{n+k}=(A)_n(A+nI)_k\) gives
Now, we apply (20) to get
or in view of (16), can be presented as
This meets our assertion (58). \(\square \)
Theorem 4
Let \(A, B \in C^{\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb {N}}\) be positive stable matrix with \(AB=BA\), then for 3V4PgHMaP, the following generating relation holds true.
Proof
We begin with the explicit series
and redo the steps as in Theorem 3, to get generating function (61). \(\square \)
Working on same lines as in previous theorems, this time starting with (27) and using (20), we get two more relations. We state next two theorems without proof.
Theorem 5
Let \(A \in C^{\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb {N}}\) be a positive stable matrix, then for 3V4PgHMaP, the following generating relation holds true.
Theorem 6
Let \(A, B \in C^{\mathbb {N} \times \mathbb {N}}\) be a positive stable matrix, then for 3V4PgHMaP, the following generating relation holds true.
7 Some additional expansions
We recall the known algebraic polynomial expansions due to Ranville (see [26, p. 181 (4), p. 283 (4), p. 207 (2)]),
where \(P_n(x)\) is Legendre polynomials.
where \(C_n(x)\) is Gegenbaure polynomials.
and
where \(H_n(x)\) is Hermite polynomials.
In this section, we derive some additional expansions for the matrix polynomial \(P_{n,m}^A(x,y,z;a,b,c,d)\) using the explicit expression (27) in series of Legendre, Hermite and Gegenbaure polynomials.
Expansion 7.1.
Expansion 7.2.
Expansion 7.3.
Derivation of Expansions (7.1)–(7.3)
From (65), we can write
Now using (71) in (27), we get
which on applying (20), yields Expansion 7.1.
Likewise, modifying (66) and (67) for \(x=ax+bz\) and then inserting in (27), we can easily get expansions 7.2 and 7.3.
