Resumo
In an attempt to answer a long standing open question of Al-Salam we generate various beautiful formulae for convolutions of orthogonal polynomials similar toU(n)(x) = Sigma(n)(k=0) P(k)(x)P(n-k)(x).where U(n)(x) are the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind and P(k)(x) are the Legendre polynomials. The results are derived both via the generating functions approach and a new convolution formulae for hypergeometric functions. We apply some addition formulae similar to the well-known expansionH(n)(x + Y) = 2(-n/2) Sigma(n)(k=0) (n k) H(k)(root 2x) H(n-k)(root 2y)for the Hermite polynomials, due to Appell and Kampe de Feriet, to obtain new interesting inequalities about the zeros of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials.
