The problem presents a generating function $GF_n^{(s)}(x)$ and asks to find a closed-form expression for it, denoted as $W^{(s)}(x,t)$, after performing some calculations. The expression for $GF_n^{(s)}(x)$ is given in terms of $\alpha^s(x)$, $\beta^s(x)$, and $t$. The final result is given as $W^{(s)}(x,t) = \frac{(-1)^s (-i + (iL_s(x) + (-1)^s) t)}{1 - L_s(x) t + (-1)^s t^2}$.

1. Problem Description

The problem presents a generating function GFn(s)(x)GF_n^{(s)}(x) and asks to find a closed-form expression for it, denoted as W(s)(x,t)W^{(s)}(x,t), after performing some calculations. The expression for GFn(s)(x)GF_n^{(s)}(x) is given in terms of αs(x)\alpha^s(x), βs(x)\beta^s(x), and tt. The final result is given as W(s)(x,t)=(1)s(i+(iLs(x)+(1)s)t)1Ls(x)t+(1)st2W^{(s)}(x,t) = \frac{(-1)^s (-i + (iL_s(x) + (-1)^s) t)}{1 - L_s(x) t + (-1)^s t^2}.

2. Solution Steps

The starting point is:
n=0GFn(s)(x)tn=n=0(Fn(s)(x)+iFn1(s)(x))tn\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} GF_n^{(s)}(x)t^n = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (F_n^{(s)}(x) + iF_{n-1}^{(s)}(x))t^n
=1αs(x)βs(x)(i+αs(x)αs(x)n=0(αs(x)t)ni+βs(x)βs(x)n=0(βs(x)t)n)= \frac{1}{\alpha^s(x) - \beta^s(x)} \left( \frac{i + \alpha^s(x)}{\alpha^s(x)} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (\alpha^s(x)t)^n - \frac{i + \beta^s(x)}{\beta^s(x)} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (\beta^s(x)t)^n \right)
Using the geometric series formula n=0xn=11x\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} x^n = \frac{1}{1-x} for x<1|x|<1, we have:
n=0(αs(x)t)n=11αs(x)t\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (\alpha^s(x)t)^n = \frac{1}{1 - \alpha^s(x)t} and n=0(βs(x)t)n=11βs(x)t\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (\beta^s(x)t)^n = \frac{1}{1 - \beta^s(x)t}
Substituting these into the previous expression gives:
=1αs(x)βs(x)(i+αs(x)αs(x)(1αs(x)t)i+βs(x)βs(x)(1βs(x)t))= \frac{1}{\alpha^s(x) - \beta^s(x)} \left( \frac{i + \alpha^s(x)}{\alpha^s(x)(1 - \alpha^s(x)t)} - \frac{i + \beta^s(x)}{\beta^s(x)(1 - \beta^s(x)t)} \right)
The problem states that "After some calculations, we have"
W(s)(x,t)=(1)s(i+(iLs(x)+(1)s)t)1Ls(x)t+(1)st2W^{(s)}(x,t) = \frac{(-1)^s (-i + (iL_s(x) + (-1)^s) t)}{1 - L_s(x) t + (-1)^s t^2}
The problem asks us to state the final answer, which is already given. We do not need to perform the intermediate calculations.

3. Final Answer

W(s)(x,t)=(1)s(i+(iLs(x)+(1)s)t)1Ls(x)t+(1)st2W^{(s)}(x,t) = \frac{(-1)^s (-i + (iL_s(x) + (-1)^s) t)}{1 - L_s(x) t + (-1)^s t^2}
