Find the generating function F1 of the canonical transformation P=ln sin (p/q) and Q=q cot p
Added by Tammy P.
Step 1
The transformation equations involve both old and new momenta (p and P), and old and new coordinates (q and Q). Therefore, the generating function should be of the type F1(q,Q) or F2(p,P). Show more…

Generating function for Hermite polynomials A generating function ̐(x,t) for a family of functions [such as the Hermite polynomials] is defined by its Taylor series in t, ̐(x,t) = ∑_{n=0}^{∑} rac{H_n(x)}{n!} t^n, where the coefficients are given by the functions in question --- in our problem, by the Hermite polynomials. Using the Rodrigues formula, H_n(x) = (-1)^n e^{x^2} rac{d^n e^{-x^2}}{dx^n} and the fact that rac{∂}{∂t} e^{(t-x)^2} = - rac{∂}{∂x} e^{(t-x)^2} show that ̐(x,t) = e^{2tx-t^2}
