The identity is named after Alexandre-Théophile Vandermonde (1772), although it was already known in 1303 by the Chinese mathematician Zhu Shijie. [1] There is a q-analog to this theorem called the q-Vandermonde identity. Vandermonde's identity can be generalized in numerous ways, including to the identity
As with the (non-q) Chu–Vandermonde identity, there are several possible proofs of the q-Vandermonde identity. The following proof uses the q -binomial theorem . One standard proof of the Chu–Vandermonde identity is to expand the product ( 1 + x ) m ( 1 + x ) n {\displaystyle (1+x)^{m}(1+x)^{n}} in two different ways.
An m × n rectangular Vandermonde matrix such that m ≤ n has rank m if and only if all x i are distinct. An m × n rectangular Vandermonde matrix such that m ≥ n has rank n if and only if there are n of the x i that are distinct. A square Vandermonde matrix is invertible if and only if the x i are distinct. An explicit formula for the ...
One particle: N particles: One dimension ^ = ^ + = + ^ = = ^ + (,,) = = + (,,) where the position of particle n is x n. = + = = +. (,) = /.There is a further restriction — the solution must not grow at infinity, so that it has either a finite L 2-norm (if it is a bound state) or a slowly diverging norm (if it is part of a continuum): [1] ‖ ‖ = | |.

which follows from Euler's integral formula by putting z = 1. It includes the Vandermonde identity as a special case. For the special case where =, (,;;) = () Dougall's formula generalizes this to the bilateral hypergeometric series at z = 1.
Vandermonde was a violinist, and became engaged with mathematics only around 1770. In Mémoire sur la résolution des équations (1771) he reported on symmetric functions and solution of cyclotomic polynomials ; this paper anticipated later Galois theory (see also abstract algebra for the role of Vandermonde in the genesis of group theory).
The expansion of the Bernoulli polynomials of the second kind into a Newton series reads [1] [2] = + + + … + It can be shown using the second integral representation and Vandermonde's identity. Recurrence formula
