A note on two-variable Chebyshev polynomials

Abstract

Abstract In this paper we discuss generalized two-variable Chebyshev polynomials and their relevant relations; in particular, by using their integral representations, we prove some operational identities. The approach is based on the generalized two-variable Hermite polynomials and the integral representations of ordinary Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind. In addition, we discuss how the families of generalized Chebyshev polynomials can be used to prove some interesting properties related to ordinary Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind. A fundamental role, as we see, is played by the powerful operational techniques verified by the families of generalized Hermite polynomials.
