Given a family of Laurent polynomials, we will construct a morphism between its (proper) Gauss-Manin system and a direct sum of associated GKZ systems. The kernel and cokernel of this morphism are very simple and consist of free O-modules.…
We review properties of confluent functions and the closely related Laguerre polynomials, and determine their bilinear integrals. As is well-known, these integrals are convergent only for a limited range of parameters. However, when one…

Multiple Hermite polynomials are an extension of the classical Hermite polynomials for which orthogonality conditions are imposed with respect to $r>1$ normal (Gaussian) weights $w_j(x)=e^{-x^2+c_jx}$ with different means $c_j/2$, $1 \leq j…
We give two widest Mehler's formulas for the univariate complex Hermite polynomials $H_{m,n}^\nu$, by performing double summations involving the products $u^m H_{m,n}^\nu (z,\overline{z}) \overline{H_{m,n}^\nu (w,\overline{w})}$ and $u^m…
In this paper we prove in a constructing way that exceptional Charlier, Meixner, Hermite and Laguerre polynomials satisfy higher order recurrence relations. Our conjecture is that the recurrence relations provided in this paper have minimal…

Binomial coefficients and central trinomial coefficients play important roles in combinatorics. Let $p>3$ be a prime. We show that $$T_{p-1}\equiv\left(\frac p3\right)3^{p-1}\ \pmod{p^2},$$ where the central trinomial coefficient $T_n$ is…
A semi-discrete Lax pair formed from the differential system and recurrence relation for semi-classical orthogonal polynomials, leads to a discrete integrable equation for a specific semi-classical orthogonal polynomial weight. The main…
