A Pfaffian-Hafnian analogue of Borchardt's identity

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2571302



Abstract: We present an identity which can be regarded as a Pfaffian-Hafnian analogue of Borchardt's identity and as a generalization of Schur's identity. We give a proof using the complex analysis.


Summary: We prove \[ \text{Pf}\! \left( { x_i - x_j \over (x_i + x_j)^2 } \right)_{1 \leq i, j \leq 2n}= \prod_{1 \leq i < j \leq 2n}{ x_i - x_j \over x_i + x_j } \cdot\text{Hf}\! \left( { 1 \over x_i + x_j }\right)_{1 \leq i, j \leq 2n} \] (and its variants) by using complex analysis. This identity can be regarded as a Pfaffian-Hafnian analogue of Borchardt's identity and as a generalization of Schur's identity.
