THE GREEN FUNCTIONS OF A CLASS OF BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS AND THEIR TRACES

From MaRDI portal





Define the polynomials \(H_n(x|\alpha)\) by the generating function \[ (1-\alpha)(e^t- \alpha)^{-1} e^{xt}= \sum^\infty_{n=0} H_n(x|\alpha) t^n(n!)^{-1}. \] When \(\alpha= -1\), \(H_n(x|-1)\) are the Euler polynomials [see \textit{C. H. Chang} and \textit{C. W. Ha}, Arch. Math. 76, 360-365 (2001; Zbl 0986.34010)]. The authors show that Green's function for the two-point boundary value problem \[ (-i)^n u^{(n)}= f,\quad \alpha u^{(j)}(0)= u^{(j)}(1),\quad 0\leq j\leq n-1, \] is essentially \(H_{n-1}(x- y|\alpha)\), with \(x> y\). They establish a series expansion for \(H_{n-1}(x|\alpha)\) and use it to obtain various summation formulas.
