No I am not trying to divide or differentiate (alpha1(ctr)*alpha1(ctr)). The following expansion will make it clear:-
1+a1*d/dx+a2*(d/dx)^2+a3*(d/dx)^3+a4*(d/dx)^4+...........till infinity can be written as:
1+a1*D+a2*D+a3*D+................ till infinity
where ai = sigma/(alpha1(ctr)*alpha1(ctr))
So I am trying to find a replacement for D in MATLAB.

You can't have just a "naked" derivative operator -- you have to apply it to
some function. If you have a symbolic function created using Symbolic Math
Toolbox, then DIFF is the correct function to use ... as long as you use it
on a sym object, which will invoke the DIFF _method_ for sym objects rather
than the numeric DIFF _function_ which computes a difference.

syms t
f = sin(t)+cos(t);
derivative = f; % the "0th" derivative is F itself
n = 20;
a = 1:n;
total = sym(ones(1, n+1));
for k = 1:n
derivative = diff(derivative, t);
total(k+1) = a(k)*derivative;
end
sumOfDerivatives = sum(total)

Note I've done it this way so you can see each term that contributes to the
sum -- if you want you can simply add each term to the running total inside
the loop.

Note that if you want you could put this code in a function that accepts f
and the symbolic variable with which to differentiate; that way you could
apply it like the "naked" (1+sum(a(k)*D^k)) operator you described above.

Perhaps you can use diff on a sym object from the Symbolic Math Toolbox.
