    The first author [SIAM J. Math. Anal. 8, 518-532 (1977; Zbl 0357.33004)] extended certain known generating functions for Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials to the forms: \[ \sum^{\infty}_{n=0}c_ n^{(\alpha +\lambda n)}(t^ n/n!)\quad and\quad \sum^{\infty}_{n=0}d_ n^{(\alpha +\lambda n,\beta +\mu n)}(t^ n/n!), \] respectively, where \(c_ n^{(\alpha)}\) and \(d_ n^{(\alpha,\beta)}\) are general one- and two-parameter coefficients. Subsequently, the second author [Pac. J. Math. 85, 471-477 (1979; Zbl 0415.33006)] considered a number of generalizations of Carlitz's results and shows how these general multivariable (and multiparameter) generating functions would apply to a wide variety of polynomial systems studied in the literature. The object of the present note is to deduce several new generating functions for the Hermite polynomials by applying some of these earlier results.
