Theorem: For any $xinmathbbR$ and $zinmathbbC,$ the hermite
polynomials,
$$H_n(x)=(-1)^ne^x^2fracd^ndx^ne^-x^2,$$
satisfy
$$sum_n=0^infty H_n(x)fracz^nn!=e^2xz-z^2.$$
So the proof starts like this:
Consider Taylor series expansion of $$e^-(x-z)^2=e^-x^2+2xz-z^2=sum_ngeq0a_nz^n,tag1$$
where
$$a_n=frac1n!fracd^ndz^ne^-(x-z)^2, quad textevaluated at quad z=0.tag2$$
To compute these coefficients we use the chainrule, introducing the variable $u=x-z.$ Then,
$$fracddze^-(x-z)^2=-fracddue^-u^2,tag3$$
and more generally, each time we differentiate we get a factor of $-1$ out infront:
$$fracd^ndz^ne^-(x-z)^2=(-1)^nfracd^ndu^ne^-u^2...tag4$$
And then things are easy. What I don't understand is the chain rule part where they repeatedly get $-1$ infront. I don't understand equations $(3)$ and $(4).$
Here is my own attempt of explaining it: Upon doing the substitution $u=x-z$, we obtain (just like when we use substitution for integrals)
$$du=-dz$$
which kind of explains equation $(3)$ but I'm not sure one can reason like this with the differentials and I have no idea how to argue equation $(4).$
Can someone shed some light on this?
