We use the classical umbral calculus to describe Riordan arrays. Here, a Riordan array is generated by a pair of umbrae, and this provides efficient proofs of several basic results of the theory such as the multiplication rule, the…
We give recurrence relations for any family of generalized Appell polynomials unifying so some known recurrences of many classical sequences of polynomials. Our main tool to get our goal is the Riordan group. We use the product of Riordan…
A new method of algebraic nature is proposed for the study of the asymptotic properties of special polynomials. The technique we foresee is based on the use of umbral operators, allowing a unified treatment of a large body of polynomial…
A symbolic method for solving linear recurrences of combinatorial and statistical interest is introduced. This method essentially relies on a representation of polynomial sequences as moments of a symbol that looks as the framework of a…
We introduce a method for describing Riordan matrices via recurrence relations along their diagonals. This provides a new structural description that complements the classical row-wise and column-wise constructions via the A-sequence. As an…
This paper establishes relationships between elliptic functions and Riordan arrays leading to new classes of Riordan arrays which here are called elliptic Riordan arrays. In particular, the case of Riordan arrays derived from Jacobi…
The goal of this paper is to present an algebraic approach to the basic results of the theory of linear recurrence relations. This approach is based on the ideas from the theory of representations of one endomorphisms (a special case of…
Through symbolic methods, we state explicit formulae for Tchebychev, Gegenbauer, Meixner, Mittlag-Leffler, and Pidduck polynomials. This is done by underlining the crucial role played by the Abel identity in revisiting the Lagrange…
We define two notions of partial sums of a Riordan array, corresponding respectively to the partial sums of the rows and the partial sums of the columns of the Riordan array in question. We characterize the matrices that arise from these…
A very simple closed-form formula for Sheppard's corrections is recovered by means of the classical umbral calculus. By means of this symbolic method, a more general closed-form formula for discrete parent distributions is provided and the…
Generalization of the Euler polynomials ${{A}_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x \right)}^{n+1}}\sum\nolimits_{m=0}^{\infty }{{{m}^{n}}{{x}^{m}}}$ are the polynomials ${{\alpha }_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x…
Many Riordan arrays play a significant role in algebraic combinatorics. We explore the inversion of Riordan arrays in this context. We give a general construct for the inversion of a Riordan array, and study this in the case of various…
The classical Riordan groups associated to a given commutative ring are groups of infinite matrices (called Riordan arrays) associated to pairs of formal power series in one variable. The Fundamental Theorem of Riordan Arrays relates matrix…
Trough the classical umbral calculus, we provide new, compact and easy to handle expressions of k-statistics, and more in general of U-statistics. In addition such a symbolic method can be naturally extended to multivariate case and to…
The Riordan group is the semi-direct product of a multiplicative group of invertible series and a group, under substitution, of non units. The Riordan near algebra, as introduced in this paper, is the Cartesian product of the algebra of…
We describe how the reversion of a series is related to convolutional recurrence relations for the series, and we place this relationship in the context of Riordan arrays. As an example of the approach, we give new recurrence relations for…
Through the following, we establish the conditions which allow us to express recursive sequences of real numbers, enumerated through the recurrence relation a_{n+1} = Aa_n + Ba_{n-1}, by means of algebraic equations in two variables of…
We study three operations on Riordan arrays. First, we investigate when the sum of Riordan arrays yields another Riordan array. We characterize the $A$- and $Z$-sequences of these sums of Riordan arrays, and also identify an analog for…
A symbolic method is used to establish some properties of the Bernoulli-Barnes polynomials.
In the last ten years, the employment of symbolic methods has substantially extended both the theory and the applications of statistics and probability. This survey reviews the development of a symbolic technique arising from classical…
