Extract

In an earner paper ((6), p. 209) the author has given a generating function for the Jacobi polynomials defined by ((5), p. 254)

In the present note we obtain another generating function for these polynomials. The results given earlier by Manocha and Sharma ((4), p. 432) in these proceedings and Brafman in (2) follow as a particular case of our result.
