Input Form





LegendreP[n, \[Mu], 2, z] == ((Gamma[-\[Mu]]/(Gamma[-\[Mu] - n] Gamma[1 - \[Mu] + n])) (z + 1)^(\[Mu]/2) Sum[((Pochhammer[-n, j] Pochhammer[1 + n, j] Pochhammer[\[Mu]/2, k - j])/ (2^k (Pochhammer[1 + \[Mu], j] j! (k - j)!))) (z + 1)^k, {k, 0, Infinity}, {j, 0, k}])/2^(\[Mu]/2) /; !Element[\[Mu], Integers]
