The aim of this work is to characterize all generating functions of the form $A(t)F(xtA(t)-R(t))$ for the classical orthogonal polynomials. Further generating functions are also provided by derivation.
We investigate polynomial sets {P n } n$\ge$0 with generating power series of the form F (xt -- R(t)) and satisfying, for n $\ge$ 0, the (d + 1)-order recursion xP\_ n (x) = P\_{ n+1 }(x) +\sum\_{ l=0}^{d} γ^{l}\_{n} P\_{ n--l} (x), where \ {γ^{l}\_{ n}\ } is a complex sequence for 0 $\le$ l $\le$ d, P \_0 (x) = 1 and P \_n (x) = 0 for all negative integer n. We show that the formal power series R(t) is a polynomial of degree at most d + 1 if certain coefficients of R(t) are null or if F (t) is a generalized hypergeometric series. Moreover, for the d-symmetric case we demonstrate that R(t) is the monomial of degree d + 1 and F (t) is expressed by hypergeometric series.
We show that the only polynomial sets with a generating function of the form F (xt -- R(t)) and satisfying a three-term recursion relation are the monomial set and the rescaled ultraspherical, Hermite, and Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind.
Using a deformed calculus based on the Dunkl operator, two new deformations of Bessel functions are proposed. Some properties i.e. generating function, differential-difference equation, recursive relations, Poisson formula... are also given with detailed proofs. Three more deformations are also outlined in the last section.
We investigate here the confluence of singularities of Mathieu differential equation by means of the Lie algebra contraction of the Lie algebra of the motion group M(2) on the Heisenberg Lie algebra H(3). A similar approach for the Lamé equation in terms of the Lie algebra contraction of $SO_0(2,1)$ on the Lie algebra of the motion group M(2) is outlined.
New nonlinear connection formulae of the q-orthogonal polynomials, such continuous q-Laguerre, continuous big q-Hermite, q-Meixner-Pollaczek and q-Gegenbauer polynomials, in terms of their respective classical analogues are obtained using a special realization of the q-exponential function as infinite multiplicative series of ordinary exponential function.
