چکیده
We provide information and explicit formulae for a class of integrals involving Bessel functions and Gegenbauer polynomials. We present a simple proof of an old formula of Gegenbauer. Some interesting special cases and applications of this result are obtained. In particular, we give a short proof of a recent result of A. A. R. Neves et al. regarding the analytical evaluation of an integral of a Bessel function times associated Legendre functions. These integrals arise in problems of vector diffraction in electromagnetic theory.

متن کاملComment on ‘Analytical results for a Bessel function times Legendre polynomials class integrals’
A result is obtained, stemming from Gegenbauer, where the products of certain Bessel functions and exponentials are expressed in terms of an infinite series of spherical Bessel functions and products of associated Legendre functions. Closed form solutions for integrals involving Bessel functions times associated Legendre functions times exponentials, recently elucidated by Neves et al (J. Phys....
متن کاملEvaluation of integrals involving orthogonal polynomials: Laguerre polynomial and Bessel function example
Using the theory of orthogonal polynomials, their associated recursion relations and differential formulas we develop a new method for evaluating integrals that include orthogonal polynomials. The method is illustrated by obtaining the following integral result that involves the Bessel function and associated Laguerre polynomial: integral(infinity)(0) x(v)e(-x/2) J(v)(mu x)L-n(2v)(x)dx = 2(v)Ga...
متن کاملA General Asymptotic Expansion Formula for Integrals Involving High-Order Orthogonal Polynomials
A new method of evaluating overlap integrals involving orthogonal polynomials is proposed. The technique relies on purely algebraic manipulation of the associated recurrence coefficients. For a large class of polynomials and for sufficiently large orders, these coefficients can be written explicitly as Taylor series in terms of powers of = 1/n, where n is the polynomial order. Such decompositio...
متن کاملGeneralizations and Specializations of Generating Functions for Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev and Legendre Polynomials with Definite Integrals
In this paper we generalize and specialize generating functions for classical orthogonal polynomials, namely Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev and Legendre polynomials. We derive a generalization of the generating function for Gegenbauer polynomials through extension a two element sequence of generating functions for Jacobi polynomials. Specializations of generating functions are accomplished throu...
