Following the lead of J. Dehesa and his collaborators, we compute the Fisher information of the Meixner-Pollaczek, Meixner, Krawtchouk and Charlier polynomials.

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 [(dÂdx) r P n
It is well-known that the family of Hahn polynomials {h α,β n (x; N)} n≥0 is orthogonal with respect to a certain weight function up to degree N. In this paper we prove, by using the three-term recurrence relation which this family satisfies, that the Hahn polynomials can be characterized by a ∆-Sob
