A simple proof of a generalization of the Chu-Vandermonde identity

Abstract

We provide a simple proof of a generalization of the multivariate Chu-Vandermonde identity recently derived in Favaro et al. (2010a). Exploiting known results for rising factorials and fourth Lauricella polynomials we show resorting to Laplace-type integral representation of the fourth Lauricella function may be avoided.
