文摘With the aid of Mullin-Rota's substitution rule, we show that the Sheffertype differential operators together with the delta operators ? and D could be used to construct a pair of expansion formulas that imply a wide variety of summation formulas in the discrete analysis and combinatorics. A convergence theorem is established for a fruitful source formula that implies more than 20 noted classical fomulas and identities as consequences. Numerous new formulas are also presented as illustrative examples. Finally, it is shown that a kind of lifting process can be used to produce certain chains of(∞~m) degree formulas for m ≥ 3 with m ≡ 1(mod 2) and m ≡ 1(mod 3), respectively.
