We describe various aspects of the Meixner polynomials. These include combinatorial descriptions of the moments, the orthogonality relation, and the linearization coefficients.

β¦ Synopsis
We prove a formula for the linearization coefficients of the general Sheffer polynomials, which unifies all the special known results for Hermite, Charlier, Laguerre, Meixner and Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials. Furthermore, we give a new and explicit real version of the corresponding formula for Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials. Our proof is based on some explicit bijections and sign-reversing weight-preserving involutions.

We give a formula for the general solution of a dth-order linear difference equation with constant coefficients in terms of one of the solutions of its associated homogeneous equation. The formula neither uses the roots of the characteristic equation nor their multiplicities. It can be readily gener
Let K represent either the real or the complex numbers. Let P k , k=1, 2, ..., r be constant coefficient (with coefficients from K) polynomials in n variables and let r] be the set of all polynomial solutions (of degree M) to this system of partial differential equations. We solve the problem of fi
The Kostka numbers K \* + play an important role in symmetric function theory, representation theory, combinatorics and invariant theory. The q-Kostka polynomials K \* + (q) are the q-analogues of the Kostka numbers and generalize and extend the mathematical meaning of the Kostka numbers. Lascoux an
