The corresponding expressions for the physicist's Hermite polynomials follow directly by properly scaling this:

Generating function

The Hermite polynomials are given by the exponential generating function

This equality is valid for all complex values of and , and can be obtained by writing the Taylor expansion at of the entire function (in the physicist's case). One can also derive the (physicist's) generating function
