Definition
The Hermite polynomials $He_n$, $n\geq 0$, in the probabilist's convention, can be defined as $He_n(x) = (-1)^n e^{x^2/2} \frac{d^n}{dx^n} e^{-x^2/2}$.
Parameters
$n$
—   integer ($n \geq 0$)
Formulas
(1)
$He_0(x) = 1$, $He_1(x) = x$, and $He_{n+1}(x) = x He_n(x) - He_{n}'(x)$ for $n\geq 1$ (recurrence formula).
(2)
$He_n(x) = n!\sum_{k=0}^{[n/2]} \frac{(-1)^k}{k!(n-2k)!2^k} x^{n-2k}$ (closed form).
(3)
$\sum_{n=0}^\infty He_n(x)\frac{t^n}{n!} = e^{xt-t^2/2}$ (exponential generating function).
Comments
(4)
The $He_n$ are orthogonal with respect to the inner product $\langle f,g\rangle = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x)g(x) e^{-x^2/2} dx$.
(5)
$He_n$ relates to the Hermite polynomials in physicist's convention $H_n$ via $He_n(x) = 2^{-n/2} H_n(x/\sqrt{2})$.
