Phys. A: Math. Gen ; 007 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor (corrigendum)), we have investigated the derivative of the Legendre function of the first ind, P ν (z), with respect to its degree. In this addendum, we derive some further representations of [ P ν (z)/ ν] ν=n with n N. The results are used to obtain in an elementary way two formulae for the Legendre function of the second ind of integer degree, Q n (z). PACS numbers: 0.30.Gp, 0.30.Lt In a recent paper [1], we have extensively investigated the derivative of the Legendre function of the first ind, P ν (z), with respect to its degree ν, with emphasis on the particular case of ν = n N. We have shown that [ P ν (z)/ ν] ν=n is of the form P ν (z) ν = P n (z) ln z 1 R n (z) (n N), (1) ν=n where P n (z) is the Legendre polynomial and R n (z) is a polynomial in z of degree n. Some previously nown formulae for R n (z), due to Bromwich and Schelunoff, have been rederived by us and a new expression has also been given. After the paper [1] has been published, it has come to our attention that we have not fully exploited the Jolliffe s formula P ν (z) ν = P n (z) ln z 1 1 d n ν=n n 1 n! dz n [ (z 1) n ln z 1 ] discussed in section 5.1 of [1]. In this addendum, it will be shown how this formula may be used to derive two further new representations of R n (z) and to rederive, in a much simpler way, the representation (5.90). We shall also obtain two expressions for the Legendre function of the second ind, Q n (z), different from those given in [1] /07/ $ IOP Publishing Ltd Printed in the UK ()
2 14888 Addendum We begin with the observation that from (1) and () it follows that d n [ (z 1) n (z 1) n ln z 1 dz n R n (z) = P n (z) ln z 1 1 n 1 n! Obviously, this may be rewritten as R n (z) = P n (z) ln z 1 1 n 1 n! ]. (3) n d n (z 1) n d [ (z 1) n ln z 1 ]. (4) dz n dz Preparing the next step, we provide here the following differentiation formula: d Ɣ(α 1) Ɣ(α 1) dz [zα ln z] = Ɣ(α 1) zα ln z [ψ(α 1) ψ(α 1)]zα Ɣ(α 1) ( N; α C), (5) where ψ(ζ) = 1 dɣ(ζ) (6) Ɣ(ζ) dζ is the digamma function. This formula may be easily proved by mathematical induction by using basic properties of the digamma function [, 3]. Rewriting (5)intheform d dz [zα ln z] = d z α dz ln z Ɣ(α 1) [ψ(α 1) ψ(α 1)]zα Ɣ(α 1) ( N; α C) (7) and using (7) in(4), after straightforward manipulations we obtain R n (z) = P n (z) ln z 1 1 n d n (z 1) n d (z 1) n ln z 1 n 1 n! dz n dz z 1 n n z 1 [ψ(n 1) ψ(n 1)]. (8) z 1 From the Rodrigues formula P n (z) = 1 d n (z 1) n (9) n n! dz n it follows that P n (z) = 1 n d n (z 1) n d (z 1) n. (10) n n! dz n dz Hence, it is seen that the sum of the first and the second terms on the right-hand side of (8) is zero and we have z 1 n n z 1 R n (z) = [ψ(n 1) ψ(n 1)]. (11) z 1 If the summation variable is changed from to = n, use is made of one of the elementary properties of the binomial coefficient and the primes are omitted, (11) is cast into z 1 n n z 1 R n (z) = [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)]. (1) z 1 (It is to be noted that the lower summation limit in (11) may be shifted to 1 while the upper summation limit in (1) ton 1.) The two representations of R n (z) given in (11) and (1) supplement formulae collected in section 5. in [1].
3 Addendum We have already mentioned that the Jolliffe s formula () may also be exploited to rederive in a simple manner formula (5.90) from [1]. To show this, we note that if the binomial theorem is used to expand (z 1) n in a sum of powers of z 1 and the result is inserted into (3), this yields R n (z) = P n (z) ln z 1 ( 1) n d n!(n )! dz n [ (z 1) n ln z 1 ]. (13) By applying formula (5), after some obvious movements the above equation becomes R n (z) = P n (z) ln z 1 ( 1) n (n )! z 1 ln z 1 (!) (n )! ( 1) n (n )! z 1 [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)]. (14) (!) (n )! By virtue of the Murphy s formula P n (z) = ( 1) n (n )! z 1, (15) (!) (n )! we see that the first and the second terms on the right-hand side of (14) cancel out. This yields R n (z) = ( 1) n (n )! z 1 [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)] (16) (!) (n )! which is identical with equation (5.90) in [1]. Having established the representations (11) and (1) ofr n (z), we may obtain two expressions for the Legendre function of the second ind of integer degree, Q n (z). To show this, we recall (cf [1, sections 5.3 and 6.1]) that the Christoffel polynomial W n 1 (z) appearing in the equation Q n (z) = 1 P n(z) ln z 1 z 1 W n 1(z) (z C \ [ 1, 1]) (17) is related to the polynomial R n (z) through W n 1 (z) = 1 [R n(z) ( 1) n R n ( z)]. (18) Using R n (z) in the form (11) and employing (1) to evaluate R n ( z) gives z 1 n n z 1 W n 1 (z) = [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)]. (19) z 1 If the roles played by (11) and (1) are interchanged, this results in z 1 n n z 1 W n 1 (z) = [ψ( 1) ψ(n 1)]. (0) z 1 Inserting (19) and (0) into(17) leads to the following representations of Q n (z): Q n (z) = 1 P n(z) ln z 1 z ± 1 n n ( z 1 z 1 [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)] z ± 1 (z C \ [ 1, 1]). (1) )
4 14890 Addendum These representations of Q n (z) are seen to be direct counterparts of the following representations of P n (z) [4, p 17]: z ± 1 n ( P n (z) = F 1 n, n; 1; z 1 ) z ± 1 n = z ± 1 ( n ) ( z 1 z ± 1 ). () For z = x [ 1, 1], the Legendre function of the second ind of integer degree may be expressed as Q n (x) = 1 P n(x) ln 1x 1 x W n 1(x) ( 1 x 1), (3) where W n 1 (x) = W n 1 (z = x). (4) Adopting the common parametrization x = cos θ (0 θ π) (5) from (3), (4), (19) and (0) we obtain Q n (cos θ) = P n (cos θ)ln cot θ and cos n θ n ( 1) [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)]tan θ (6) Q n (cos θ) = P n (cos θ)ln cot θ sin n θ n ( 1) n [ψ(n 1) ψ( 1)] cot θ. (7) These representations of Q n (cos θ)harmonize with the following nown [4, p 18] expressions for P n (cos θ): P n (cos θ) = cos n θ ( F 1 n, n; 1; tan θ ) and = cos n θ n ( 1) tan θ P n (cos θ) = ( 1) n sin n θ ( F 1 n, n; 1; cot θ ) (8) = sin n θ ( n ( 1) n ) cot θ, (9) respectively. We are not aware of any appearance of either of formulae (11), (1), (1), (6)or(7)in the literature.
