In this paper a general theory of semi-classical matrix orthogonal polynomials is developed. We define the semi-classical linear functionals by means of a distributional equation $D(u A) = u B,$ where $A$ and $B$ are matrix polynomials.…
We show combinatorially that the higher-order matching polynomials of several families of graphs are d-orthogonal polynomials. The matching polynomial of a graph is a generating function for coverings of a graph by disjoint edges; the…
Inspired by the framework of operational methods and based on the generating functions of Legendre-Gould Hopper polynomials and Sheffer sequences, we discuss certain new mixed type polynomials and their important properties. We show that…
Two families of d-orthogonal polynomials related to su(2) are identified and studied. The algebraic setting allows their full characterization (explicit expressions, recurrence relations, difference equations, generating functions, etc.) of…
The aim of this paper is twofold. The first part is concerned with the associated and the so-called co-polynomials, i.e. new sequences obtained when finite perturbations of the recurrence coefficients are considered. In the second part we…
We study skew-orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weight function $\exp[-2V(x)]$, with $V(x)=\sum_{K=1}^{2d}(u_{K}/{K})x^{K}$, $u_{2d} > 0$, $d > 0$. A finite subsequence of such skew-orthogonal polynomials arising in the study of…
In this chapter are given necessary and sufficient conditions for the regularity of solutions of the functional equation appearing in the theory of classical orthogonal polynomials. In addition, we also present the functional Rodrigues…
We develop a general theory of extensions of flat functors along geometric morphisms of toposes, and apply it to the study of the class of theories whose classifying topos is equivalent to a presheaf topos. As a result, we obtain a…
In this paper, we study some properties of Sheffer sequences for the powers of Sheffer pairs under umbral composition. From our properties we derive new and interesting identities of Sheffer sequences of special polynomials for the powers…
In this paper we give a method, based on the characteristic function of a set, to solve some difficult problems of set theory in undergraduate research.
This paper studies symmetric tensor decompositions. For symmetric tensors, there exist linear relations of recursive patterns among their entries. Such a relation can be represented by a polynomial, which is called a generating polynomial.…
The subject of this paper are polynomials in multiple non-commuting variables. For polynomials of this type orthogonal with respect to a state, we prove a Favard-type recursion relation. On the other hand, free Sheffer polynomials are a…
This paper presents a first result of a long term research project dealing with the construction of d-orthogonal polynomials with Hahn's property. We shall show that the latter class could be characterized by expanding a polynomial as a…
In this paper we introduce a method of characteristic sets with respect to several term orderings for difference-differential polynomials. Using this technique, we obtain a method of computation of multivariate dimension polynomials of…
The Brenke type generating functions are the polynomial generating functions of the form $$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}{P_n(x )\over n!}t^n=A(t)B(xt), $$ where $A$ and $B$ are two formal power series subject to the conditions…
We apply a symbolic approach of the general quadratic decomposition of polynomial sequences - presented in a previous article referenced herein - to polynomial sequences fulfilling specific orthogonal conditions towards two given…
The aim of this paper is to present a new simple recurrence for Appell and Sheffer sequences in terms of the linear functional that defines them, and to explain how this is equivalent to several well-known characterizations appearing in the…
Let $(p_n)_n$ be either the $q$-Meixner or the $q$-Laguerre polynomials. We form a new sequence of polynomials $(q_n)_n$ by considering a linear combination of two consecutive $p_n$: $q_n=p_n+\beta_np_{n-1}$, $\beta_n\in \RR$. Using the…
We prove a certain duality relation for orthogonal polynomials defined on a finite set. The result is used in a direct proof of the equivalence of two different ways of computing the correlation functions of a discrete orthogonal polynomial…
