This (partly expository) paper originated from the study of Hankel determinants of convolution powers of Catalan numbers and of Narayana polynomials. This led to some Hankel determinants of signed Catalan numbers whose values are multiples…

Motivated by the Hankel determinant evaluation of moment sequences, we study a kind of Pfaffian analogue evaluation. We prove an LU-decomposition analogue for skew-symmetric matrices, called Pfaffian decomposition. We then apply this…

The generating functions of some sequences of Catalan numbers and Narayana polynomials have simple expansions as continued fractions of Jacobi type. We give an overview of these facts and prove analogous results for q-Narayana polynomials…

We study certain series with Catalan numbers and reciprocal Catalan numbers, respectively, and provide seemingly new closed form evaluations of these series with Fibonacci (Lucas) entries. In addition, we state some combinatorial sums that…

The q-difference analog of the classical ladder operators is derived for those orthogonal polynomials arising from a class of indeterminate moments problem.

Taking the examples of Legendre and Hermite orthogonal polynomials, we show how to interpret the fact that these orthogonal polynomials are moments of other orthogonal polynomials in terms of their associated Riordan arrays. We use these…

We present alternative, q-hypergeometric proofs of some polynomial analogues of classical q-series identities recently discovered by Alladi and Berkovich, and Berkovich and Garvan.

Stirling number of the first and the second kinds have seen many generalizations and applications in various areas of mathematics. We introduce some combinatorial parameters which realize $q$-analogues and Broder's $r$-variants of Stirling…

We introduce polynomial sets of $(p,q)$-Appell type and give some of their characterizations. The algebraic properties of the set of all polynomial sequences of $(p,q)$-Appell type are studied. Next, we give a recurrence relation and a…

We use the inversion of coefficient arrays to define dual polynomials to the Fibonacci and Catalan-Fibonacci polynomials, and we explore the properties of these new polynomials sequences. Many of the arrays involved are Riordan arrays.…

In this paper we prove a $q$-analogue of Koshy's formula in terms of the Narayana polynomial due to Lassalle and a $q$-analogue of Koshy's formula in terms of $q$-hypergeometric series due to Andrews by applying the inclusion-exclusion…

After a short survey about Schroeder numbers and some generalizations which I call Schroeder-like numbers I study some q-analogues which have simple Hankel determinants.

We study a certain family of infinite series with reciprocal Catalan numbers. We first evaluate two special candidates of the family in closed form, where we also present some Catalan-Fibonacci relations. Then we focus on the general…

In this paper we investigate the following "polynomial moment problem": for a complex polynomial $P(z)$ and distinct complex numbers $a,b$ to describe polynomials $q(z)$ orthogonal to all integer non-negative powers of $P(z)$ on the segment…

This paper examines the recursive sequence of polynomials $p_n(x)$, defined by $p_0(x) = x^2 - 2$ and $p_n(x) = p_{n-1}(x)^2 - 2$ for $n \geq 1$. It describes the field-theoretic motivations behind this sequence, derives a recursive formula…

This article gives a brief introduction to $q$-special functions, i.e., $q$-analogues of the classical special functions. Here $q$ is a deformation parameter, usually $0<q<1$, where $q=1$ is the classical case. The main topics to be treated…

This is a review of ($q$-)hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials and their relation to representation theory of quantum groups, to matrix models, to integrable theory, and to knot theory. We discuss both continuous and discrete orthogonal…

This research is aimed to give a determinantal definition for the $q$-Appell polynomials and show some classical properties as well as find some interesting properties of the mentioned polynomials in the light of the new definition.

A coding method using binary sequences is presented for different computation problems related to Catalan numbers. This method proves in a very easy way the equivalence of these problems.

We obtain representations of $X_1$ exceptional orthogonal polynomials through determinants of matrices that have certain adjusted moments as entries. We start out directly from the Darboux transformation, allowing for a universal…
