We prove that if both [P n (x)] n=0 and [{ r P n (x)] n=r are orthogonal polynomials for any fixed integer r 1, then [P n (x)] n=0 must be discrete classical orthogonal polynomials. This result is a discrete version of the classical Hahn's theorem stating that if both [P n (x)] n=0 and [(dรdx) r P n
An addition formula, Pythagorean identity, and generating function are obtained for orthogonal homogeneous polynomials of several real variables. Application is made to the study of series of such polynomials. Results include an analog of the Funk-Hecke theorem.
In this paper some new characterizations of ratio asymptotics for orthogonal polynomials are given.
