Hermite transform

In mathematics, Hermite transform is an integral transform named after the mathematician Charles Hermite, which uses Hermite polynomials $H_n(x)$ as kernels of the transform. This was first introduced by Lokenath Debnath in 1964. The Hermite transform of a function $F(x)$ is $$H\{F(x)\}=f_H(n)=\underset{-\mathrm{\infty }}{\overset{\mathrm{\infty }}{\int }}{e}^{-x^2}{H}_n(x)F(x)dx$$

The inverse Hermite transform is given by $$H^{-1}\{f_H(n)\}=F(x)=\sum _{n=0}^{\mathrm{\infty }}\frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi }{2}^{n}n!}{f}_H(n)H_n(x)$$
