Generalized Stirling numbers, exponential Riordan arrays and orthogonal polynomials

چکیده
We define a generalization of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, which depends on two parameters. The matrices of integers that result are exponential Riordan arrays. We explore links to orthogonal polynomials by studying the production matrices of these Riordan arrays. Generalized Bell numbers are also defined, again depending on two parameters, and we determine the Hankel transform of these numbers.

Generalized Stirling Numbers, Exponential Riordan Arrays, and Toda Chain Equations
We study the properties of three families of exponential Riordan arrays related to the Stirling numbers of the first and second kind. We relate these exponential Riordan arrays to the coefficients of families of orthogonal polynomials. We calculate the Hankel transforms of the moments of these orthogonal polynomials. We show that the Jacobi coefficients of two of the matrices studied satisfy ge...
متن کاملA Study of Integer Sequences, Riordan Arrays, Pascal-like Arrays and Hankel Transforms
We study integer sequences and transforms that operate on them. Many of these transforms are defined by triangular arrays of integers, with a particular focus on Riordan arrays and Pascal-like arrays. In order to explore the structure of these transforms, use is made of methods coming from the theory of continued fractions, hypergeometric functions, orthogonal polynomials and most importantly f...
متن کاملA Note on Three Families of Orthogonal Polynomials defined by Circular Functions, and Their Moment Sequences
Using the language of exponential Riordan arrays, we study three distinct families of orthogonal polynomials defined by trigonometric functions. We study the moment sequences of theses families, finding continued fraction expressions for their generating functions, and calculate the Hankel transforms of these moment sequences. Results related to the Euler or zigzag numbers, as well as the gener...
متن کاملEulerian Polynomials as Moments, via Exponential Riordan Arrays
Using the theory of exponential Riordan arrays and orthogonal polynomials, we demonstrate that the Eulerian polynomials and the shifted Eulerian polynomials are moment sequences for a simple family of orthogonal polynomials. The coefficient arrays of these families of orthogonal polynomials are shown to be exponential Riordan arrays. Using the theory of orthogonal polynomials we are then able t...
متن کاملThe Restricted Toda Chain, Exponential Riordan Arrays, and Hankel Transforms
with u0 = 0, where the dot indicates differentiation with respect to t. In this note, we shall show how solutions to this equation can be formulated in the context of exponential Riordan arrays. The Riordan arrays we shall consider may be considered as parameterised (or “time”-dependent) Riordan arrays. We have already considered parameterized Riordan arrays [1], exploring the links between the...
