Abstract

A generating function for the spherical harmonics in three or more dimensions is given. This function allows us to find in a simple manner the explicit expressions for the spherical harmonics in three dimensions. The generating functions for the spherical harmonics given here are analogous to certain well-known generating functions for solutions of the wave equation.
