The connection between polynomial solutions of finite-difference equations and finite-dimensional representations of the $sl_2$-algebra is established (the talk given at the Wigner Symposium, Guadalajara, Mexico, August 1995, to be published in the Proceedings)
A certain representation for the Heisenberg algebra in finite-difference operators is established. The Lie-algebraic procedure of discretization of differential equations with isospectral property is proposed. Using $sl_2$-algebra based approach, (quasi)-exactly-solvable finite-difference equations are described. It is shown that the operators having the Hahn, Charlier and Meixner polynomials as the eigenfunctions are reproduced in present approach as some particular cases. A discrete version of the classical orthogonal polynomials (like Hermite, Laguerre, Legendre and Jacobi ones) is introduced.
