A generic polynomial solution for the differential equation of hypergeometric type and six sequences of orthogonal polynomials related to it

In this work, we present a generic formula for the polynomial solution families of the well-known differential equation of hypergeometric type s(x)y"n(x) + t(x)y'n(x) - lnyn(x) = 0 and show that all the three classical orthogonal polynomial families as well as three finite orthogonal polynomial families, extracted from this equation, can be identified as special cases of this derived polynomial sequence. Some general properties of this sequence are also given.

A generic formula for the values at the boundary points of monic classical orthogonal polynomials

In a previous paper we have determined a generic formula for the polynomial solution families of the well-known differential equation of hypergeometric type σ(x)y"n(x)+τ(x)y'n(x)-λnyn(x)=0. In this paper, we give another such formula which enables us to present a generic formula for the values of monic classical orthogonal polynomials at their boundary points of definition.

On Connection, Linearization and Duplication Coefficients of Classical Orthogonal Polynomials

In this work, we have mainly achieved the following: 1. we provide a review of the main methods used for the computation of the connection and linearization coefficients between orthogonal polynomials of a continuous variable, moreover using a new approach, the duplication problem of these polynomial families is solved; 2. we review the main methods used for the computation of the connection and linearization coefficients of orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable, we solve the duplication and linearization problem of all orthogonal polynomials of a discrete variable; 3. we propose a method to generate the connection, linearization and duplication coefficients for q-orthogonal polynomials; 4. we propose a unified method to obtain these coefficients in a generic way for orthogonal polynomials on quadratic and q-quadratic lattices. Our algorithmic approach to compute linearization, connection and duplication coefficients is based on the one used by Koepf and Schmersau and on the NaViMa algorithm. Our main technique is to use explicit formulas for structural identities of classical orthogonal polynomial systems. We find our results by an application of computer algebra. The major algorithmic tools for our development are Zeilberger’s algorithm, q-Zeilberger’s algorithm, the Petkovšek-van-Hoeij algorithm, the q-Petkovšek-van-Hoeij algorithm, and Algorithm 2.2, p. 20 of Koepf's book "Hypergeometric Summation" and it q-analogue.
