We call Krawtchouk-Griffiths systems, KG-systems, systems of multivariate polynomials orthogonal with respect to corresponding multinomial distributions. The original Krawtchouk polynomials are orthogonal with respect to a binomial…
Krawtchouk's polynomials occur classically as orthogonal polynomials with respect to the binomial distribution. They may be also expressed in the form of matrices, that emerge as arrays of the values that the polynomials take. The algebraic…

Khrushchev's formula is the cornerstone of the so called Khrushchev theory, a body of results which has revolutionized the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. This formula can be understood as a factorization of the Schur…
We investigate polynomials, called m-polynomials, whose generator polynomial has coefficients that can be arranged as a matrix, where q is a positive integer greater than one. Orthogonality relations are established and coefficients are…

The Krawtchouck polynomials arise naturally in both coding theory and probability theory and have been studied extensively from these points of view. However, very little is known about their irreducibility and Galois properties. Just like…

Quantum K-theory is a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology, which was recently defined by Y.-P. Lee. Based on a presentation for the quantum K-theory of the classical flag variety Fl_n, we define and study quantum Grothendieck…
Krawtchouk polynomials play an important role in coding theory and are also useful in graph theory and number theory. Although the basic properties of these polynomials are to some extent known, there is, to my knowledge, no detailed…
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…
